ECD Kevin Walker and CDs Fernando Bittar & Janice Ahn lead the BUCK team as they conjure a kinetic mix of 3D and 2D animation for a series of real-life “Tall Tales of True Deliveries” for FedEx thru BBDO.

The spots feature a driver in Georgia who helped a young fan send a skateboard to his idol Tony Hawk, a courier who saves a beach wedding with a heroic ring delivery, and a pair of agents who save a fragile original Elvis film print from certain destruction.
