WALDO: The Trailer

WALDO: The Trailer
Description: “WALDO: The Trailer” is a teaser trailer for a fake feature film based on
characters found in Where’s Waldo books created by Martin Handford. In the books, Waldo
blends in with his environments and it’s the reader’s goal to search for and find him. He wears a red and white striped shirt and hat and often hides in environments with the same color scheme. Our team adapted the characters of Waldo and Odlaw, the opposite of Waldo, into a spy thriller story where Odlaw is chasing down Waldo in order to take Waldo’s magic cane. “WALDO: The Trailer” aims to provide a look into the visual style and storyline of the film that does not, and probably will not, ever exist.
Creative Team: Created and produced by Bradley Earnshaw, Jake George, and Roy Holdford
TRT: 2:17
Music: WALDO Theme by Jake George
