Colossal does holiday spots

(Colossal) Pictures completed two 10-second Christmas IDs for Nickelodeon. The stop-motion “Yummy Winter Wonderland” features gingerbread people frolicking in a set made entirely of food with white frosting substituting as snow. “A Weenie New Year” is a brief New Year’s extravaganza hosted by a live-action puppet band leader Lawrence Weenie and his swingin’ Big Band of Weenies. Jim Matison was the director/creative director for these holiday spots.
