Brief Explanation

New Zealand beer brand, Steinlager, has taken the best New Zealand ingredients and combined them with Japanese brewing mastery to make a new beer - Tokyo Dry. To launch Tokyo Dry we followed the ethos of the beer by combining New Zealand ‘ingredients’ in the form of the world champ NZ hip-hop dance group ‘The Bruddas’ - and the Japanese mastery of origami, bonsai, sushi, pottery, Japanese calligraphy, robotics and neon lighting, to create a film that ran online, on TV and in cinema. In the film The Bruddas dance in various locations around Tokyo. Using Motion Capture and dynamic simulations they change into different CGI avatars as they dance to represent all the different types of Japanese Mastery.
