01 — Problem

One environment. Six vehicles.

Cars.com wanted to enhance one of its biggest annual campaigns with a distinctive environment that could work across all six vehicles.

02 — Solution

Designed before the cameras rolled

Floyd + Co worked with the in-house creative team and director on studio selection, virtual art department work, on-set supervision and animation. Previsualization helped refine a 3D environment built around the brand’s colors.

03 — Impact

A cohesive campaign

Filmed over one week, the new studio content and interviews combined with existing driving footage to create a bold, on-brand Cars of the Year campaign.
