Last October, you may remember a small orange sombrero appearing on the home screen of Moto X smartphones. It triggered an interactive film called ‘Windy Day’, which you could explore by physically moving the handset.
Motorola has now dropped a teaser video for its follow-up Buggy Night. It uses the same gorgeous, papercraft-inspired art style and returns to the charming, leafy forest created by Jon Klassen for the original Windy Night project.
Rather than following a small mouse called Pepe though, this particular adventure revolves around an as yet unnamed insect who like to shy away from the spotlight. Former Pixar animator Mark Oftedal – the character designer on Windy Day – is working on the new project but it’s unclear at this point whether Jan Pinkava (who directed Ratatouille) is returning as director.
