Hannah Montana GFX (Title Sequence and Elements)

Wed, 29 Apr 2009 00:00:00 GMT

]]>This week saw the huge launch of the new Disney Movie: Hannah Montana. We were asked to create a title sequence for the documentary covering the release, which is to be shown on the Disney Chanel May1st, 2nd, and 3rd. The initial task was to create the 3D environment to set the scene, which we chose to be a red carpet feel. Then we began to build the city blocks, sky scrapers, and crowds. Finally once the camera motion paths were set, we rendered the 3D elements before creating effects in After Effects. Clips from the Hannah Montana movie were used to help set the scene. All 3D elements were created using Maxons Cinema 4D. ** In addition this project now includes similar titles created for the Jonas Brothers Movie Premiere. In association with the Disney Movie Previews animations which can be seen here: VIEW >> Disney Movie Previews Portfolio

The Sacred Quest (3D Animation Piece)

Thu, 01 Nov 2007 00:00:00 GMT

]]>The Sacred Quest is an extraordinary story of an ordinary young woman, who is propelled towards a cataclysmic life change after an astonishing story is impregnated into her consciousness. As she begins to transcribe the novel she comes to realise that she is in fact its central character, and a sequence of synchronicities sees her following trails of evidence sent by the universe to mark out the path she must follow. The author of The Sacred Quest came to us to try and bring to life a short excerpt from her book, that could be presented and shown around the world. We started with an initial story line, and progressed with a full 3D animation featuring 3 characters set in a local bar. Initially set in the day, the mood come across better in an evening scenario, so the lighting and bar area were changed to accomodate this. Maxon Cinema 4D was the target of choice to create this 3D environment. Skinning and character creation was closely matched to the client specification, and once the draft 3D was created, we added an effect layer using Adobe After Effects. One halfsize render was produced for approval, then the render queue started creating the finally 1600 frame animation, which was produced at square pixel widescreen and delivered to the client in a quicktime format.

We then went on to create the motion graphic chapter segments, which featured Google Earth flybys which targeted each of the CEMEX lakes that was the topic for the respective chapter. This then progressed on to creating the title sequence, and other miscellanous graphical elements such as name straps and transitional elements used in the DVD.
