How did they do it!? Behind the Scenes of “Comfortable”

One of the talked about commercials this past week was from Rocket Mortgage. It starred Jason Momoa and his wife Actress Lisa Bonet. The goal in the commercial for Rocket Mortgage was to illustrate the ability to feel comfortable in your own home.

Using CGI the filmmakers demonstrated the “Real” Jason Momoa and his life at home. While fans of Momoa were unsettled by the Ad, it was tongue in cheek, it looked like the cast and crew had a good time with it! Take a look at the Video above highlighting the effects required to make it work!
