Genghis spent a week in the Windy City to film a very special episode of Chicago MED: “Graveyard Shift” (Season 2 Episode 11)
In the episode, Dr. Rhodes is called in from his date with Robin to perform a top top-secret procedure for a VIP…
And by VIP, we mean Very Important PANDA!
It’s not every day you see an animal in a hospital – let alone one as rare or magnificent as a panda, so Genghis was certainly turning heads throughout the entirety of the filming process.
FUN FACT: For this shoot, we used air bladders to create an exaggerated deep breathing effect while Genghis was under general anesthesia.
An Un-bee-lievable Performance
A shoot with fast food chain Panda Express took Genghis and the Animatronic Bear Studios Inc. team to the Big Apple for a Honey Sesame Chicken commercial.
The mission – to combine real footage of pandas with a touch of TV magic to create a one-of-a-kind ad.
How did we do it?
Well, we had a little help from a green screen and a green painted treadmill…
If you think running on a treadmill would be a little tricky for a chubby panda – you’d be right! But at Animatronic Bear Studios Inc, we always pull out all the stops!
The Return Of Sneezing Panda
Everyone remembers that viral video of a sneezing panda, right?
We certainly do, because we did a throwback to the classic 2006 video as part of a shoot with Yahoo.
For this project, we traveled to the Land Down Under and found ourselves on the back of Putin’s horse along with ice skaters, and a bodybuilder.
No, that’s not something we ever thought we would say either.
It’s always a treat to be a part of such wonderfully silly commercials – and even more of a pleasure to spend time in Australia with such a wonderful team of professionals.
