London's StudioAKA recently created an ad for Norwegian energy company Statoil called 'Good Night,' which is a beautiful blend of live action and CG animation.

The story behind Good Night starts off with a girl asking her father what he does for a living. From there he describes his job as a treasure hunter and soon, the audience is transported into an underwater adventure. The father and daughter go through a sea world filled with gigantic octopuses and luminous jellyfish as they try to find treasure. The narration is [heartwarming](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/synchrony-bank) and the seamless blend of live action and animation is wonderfully executed.

The concept of Good Night is well thought-out and brings a [playful imaginative element](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canva-spotlights) that engages the audience.
