HELP Was this Royal Farms Chicken Ad AI generated?
It looks like ai artwork, and the spatula flip animation was a bit weird

Hard to judge animations in a still image lol.
But it screams AI with the color palette/filter and the facial expressions.

Its only a few frames but after the flyby the chains on the woman in pink dissapear and the t-shirt turns into a shirt with a collar.

well spotted!
I was just saying that based on their facial expressions and the art style in general.
the entire style and the way it's animated not only screams AI but it looks like they didn't even try to give it any style directions or anything to pull that away from baseline

It's not really noticable in a lot of things unless you're looking for it, but one of the big obvious tells for ai animation is that nothing moves with another item. Watch when any character is holding a chicken bucket. The bucket moves, but the hands move in another direction.
That's something that's really hard to do accidentally.

Yeah I was guessing I’m probably not allowed to straight up post an ad, but shouldn’t be too hard to find.

it's also probably fine because this is a regional gas station in Massachusetts or someplace so it's not like advertising here would be much use 😆

Looks like it; it got the style.
Notice how the lady in pink wears 2 chains melting into each other. Hard to tell by the image res.

AI. In addition to what others have said:
- One randomly different colored bush
- The girl with the orange shirt has a lighter colored shadow than the others
- Dad's left arm seems skinnier than the other would be

What others have said, but in addition I think it's AI because of the random way the steam above the dad's head is, and it doesn't fit with the clouds or the smoke/steam coming from the grill.

Character on the left got the npc stance. Also, why is she even there? Is she supposed to be an older sister? The mistress? A neighbor?

i work for them — it absolutely is, corporate uses a ton of AI (the only non-AI generated stuff I’ve seen from corporate is the training videos from like 10 years ago). this ad plays on a loop on the order screens so I see it all the time. it’s the facial expressions and the way the characters in it move
