A character from the film IF sits at a table in an IHOP restaurant with a group of children in suits

IHOP x IF Menu

Produced by Framestore Pictures, our VFX artists in Los Angeles and Montreal crafted IHOP’s new spot featuring some of the imaginary friends from the upcoming film, IF.

Framestore’s Film Division was the lead creative partner on the film. Framestore's Pre-Production Services (FPS), Art Department, Visual Development Department, Design, and VFX teams, spread across London, Montreal, and Mumbai, produced over 40 visually distinctive IFs that can be seen throughout the movie.

For the spot our artists were able to translate the existing assets and characters we crafted for the film, and successfully see them in a new context - this time at an IHOP restaurant.

Catch our IFs only in theaters May 17th.
