"The Plastic Elephant in the Room"

This is a video I made at the INC-5 UN Plastics Treaty negotiations, which has a full CG elephant made out of plastic bottles. The video explains plastic subsidies, with a plastic elephant as an analogy, since it is not being talked about much at the negotiations.

I used an elephant model I found online, then animated it. The next step was to add a particle system with the objects as plastic bottles. After I rendered it out and comped it, it was done!
