Project info

The Bean is an original Studio Meala short created by Sean Cunningham as a love letter to the Japanese commercials, promos and bumpers he watched so much of in his college years, as well as the work of some of his influences, like Hiroyuki Imasihi.

The project also helped us develop a style and pipeline suitable for some of our currently-in-development IP projects.
