‘Gary’ the 8-bit suit is made by Kiel Johnson and Klai Brown for a Toshiba commercial, which was directed by 'Docter Twins.' Using foam, the duo cut out large pixels and fastened them to a basic cardboard foundation.
Kiel states, “I think I cut around 4000 pixels. Not all used for Gary… we are building two more characters for a video project.” He has posted a slew of terrific images from the building stage and commercial shoot.
