Ahead of Patrick Kielty’s much anticipated debut as the new host of Ireland’s most loved show, the Late Late, we created a campaign of teasers and a promo which drew on the show’s heritage icon, the Barn Owl.

Piranha Bar’s newest director Graham Gallagher, brought his decades of creature VFX and character animation direction to bare on this spot for RTÉ’s promo team.
His challenge – leading the team in recreating a photo-realistic Barn Owl that could be animated, lit and rendered to match the ridiculous cuteness of the real McCoy which he also captured in-camera. The final film contains and seamless mixture of both the footage and the CG bird as it mimic’s Patrick’s every move.

Later, while directing Patrick himself on set, Graham was able to get the new host to perfectly replicate the owl’s signature move. Impressive!.

About Piranha Bar

Piranha Bar is both a Production Company and a full service Post Facility.

Our roster of directors and our studio of animators, 3D genii, flame artists and production elves all share a passion for effective storytelling.
From live-action to animation, high-end VFX to origami and lots in between, every executional technique supports ‘The Story’. This results in engaging, beautifully crafted work that speaks, sometimes whispers and occasionally screams with one singular creative voice.

Whatever the project demands, from inception to execution, Piranha Bar encourages a collaborative approach to the creative process and looks to workshop concepts, techniques and media options with our clients.

In addition to the traditional production company workflow, Piranha Bar offers a more collective approach, where every pre-production, production and post solution is explored and delivered in-house, under one elegant Georgian studio roof.

As the world rapidly shifts focus from one medium to another and across multiple communication platforms, we seek to explore the kinds of concepts and executional techniques that result in true originality.

Piranha Bar is primarily a place to come and work with talented people, to challenge norms, to innovate and to create the very best work.
