Nesquik – Code Yellow
May 18, 2009 by
This was a job completed at BEanimation.
Work required
Required rig removal (shots 1,2,5,7,8,and 9). Shot 6 the CG google view required a clearer pack than what was supplied to us there was no time to ask them to change it so we tracked in new artwork, this included a larger basket. There were also changes made to the white house to give the roof a feeling of some age without making it look to tattered. Shot 11 had some cosmetic work done to tidy up the fingernails of the young girl (hand painting new nails), also the skin was smoothed to remove blemishes. The text wipe on the toy was done during post.
The rest of the shots required the bunny to have his tones applied and integrated into the environment. This is done with rotoscoping, and drawing of cast shadows and contact shadows.
Worked with clients during a 2 day post to make any changes they required. Master tapes were created onto a digi-beta.
Shot 11 breakdown
Pitch –
May 12, 2009 by
This pitch was completed at McKeown Devita Productions
Work required
The background artwork was created with the idea of having the camera pan and the feeling of multiple levels all moving and interacting, unfortunately you do not get to see this so much as most of the live action was shot stationary. Because of time constraints (2days during the weekend) we were not able to shot on chroma key screens. The video was shot against a relatively plain white wall in the office with a DV camera. This required the keying to be separated off into different areas and treated differently as there was also much motion blur which I was trying to keep. Most of the first day was tackled with selecting footage we thought might work with the ink spraying, and also getting her cut from the background. This left just one day to build a nice background and to animate some ink splats that would be thrown out from her hands or general body gestures in one direction. There are some scenes that work much better and show more what we wanted to achieve but time beat us in the end.
