Mighty Nice is a Sydney-based animation studio co-founded by Nexus Productions in London and Darren Price, their one-time Head of 3D. Darren carefully packed & shipped with him lots of experience gleaned from the talented crew at Nexus. His collaborations with directors Smith & Foulkes include Coke's Video Game, the 2005 D&AD Black Pencil winner Grrr for Honda and Motorola's Grand Classics. The same team at Nexus also created the title sequences for films such as the Thunderbirds, Lemony Snicket, and alternative titles for The Pink Panther. Mighty Nice's first short film, Potapych: The Bear Who Loved Vodka won a BAFTA for Best Animation. Darren reckons that animation is like beer...or sunshine. With enough of it, everything starts to look good. Technically brilliant, strong in narrative, and beautiful to watch - it's similarities to beer quickly end, but animation does add charm, wit and sophistication to any project. We love hard work, and we do love a challenge. Midnight magic and all. www.mightynice.com.au

Oporto is out there! Flaming wolves and saxophones and chilli Thelma and lemon Louise driving off that cliff. It’s been mighty nice working with such a talented team and amazing client on this one. Thanks all.
Super excited to see this live. Oporto is a brand that offers Australians a range of flavours that 'Light up your tastebuds'. From our Original Chilli and Lemon & Herb bastings to our range of delicious sauces including Prego and Garlic we take Australian tastebuds on an adventure each time. We start things off with where it all began for Antonio Cerqueira with our Original Chilli Flame Grilled Chicken but more to follow as the campaign extends across our menu. Big thanks to Mark Harricks Al Crawford Amanda Slatyer Kim Wright and the team at Mighty Nice Sydney. It has been so fun working with you all on the project.
I just love Noel’s wings and Allison’s stripes. Great work Bonnie Forsyth and Mighty Nice Sydney and Nexus Studios !
We’re buzzing to see our new brand campaign for The Great British Bake Off spread its beautiful psychedelic wings and take flight. Directed by our very own Bonnie Forsyth and created at Mighty Nice Sydney, the campaign blends nostalgic 2D cell animation with playful, contemporary characters. Hosts Noel Fielding and Alison Hammond came on board to provide their voices and a huge thank you to Channel 4 and Nexus Studios for this opportunity. Thank you also to Stash Media Inc. for the lovely write up.
