Method/Kuntz Take On XBox Posted by Matt Lambert Tom Kuntz brings his peculiarly familiar sense of humor to XBox’s “Lips” with the help of Method. This last campaign from TAG joins the company of spots with compelling narratives, lead by some of today’s most influential directing talent. Kuntz, and his unrivaled storytelling style, has recently felt the freedom of working with CG to push his narratives. After a few recent, CG-driven pieces like FedEx “Pigeons” and “AXE “Chocolate Man,” he has proven that he can maintain his off-kilter sensibilities within the realm of animation/character work.
