Great animation and great story about the rise to fame of Garratt. BBC Music commissioned ‘Contra‘ to tell the tale.
Series of animated documents made for a web documentary that tells the story of 5 young Syrian refugees who risked it all for a chance to start over. Treated stills and documents manage to sustain the long sequences.
Not the newest of films here, but the designers at Parallel managed to combine actual products with collage and simple figures within a cleverly lit scene to create a unique short commercial.
Excellent promo for Nike by ECD Jonathan Notaro and the Brand New School. It mixes drawn animation with CG elements to produce this gritty animation with a limited colour palette.

This title gets us up to speed quickly with the recent history of Ukriane, well at least how the story goes in the West. It’s another excellent piece of work from Patrick Claire
Been meaning to post this one for a while. It’s from Elastic TV. A great mix of the banal and the political.
STATE Design‘s promo for the FOX Sports coverage of the 2015 Women’s World Cup in Canada featuring largely still images but animated into a superb mix with sketched lines and ink splashes and ooddles of humour.
Motion designer Christian Stangl has put this music video together for Strange Freedom´s track “Hide“ by means of thousands of single microscopic photographies, merged together, creating a dramatic timelapse scenario.

Creative Directed & Designed by Manija Emran. Produced by Mill Plus themillplus.com
Essentially, spy stuff. Lots of overlays and tracking footage and data gives it that high-tech espionage look. By Imaginary Forces
Slight alteration to the aired version as the cross was taken off. Short and simple but nice idea with the flag transition. By Imaginary Forces.

John Allison and Chris Bovill, Creative Directors of 4creative where the drivers behind the 45 hours of footage, shot over two days using 44 cameras and a cast and crew of almost 300 people, including race and stunt horses and jockeys to achieve the ambitious final film.
This is an amazing piece of work. The camera movement, depth of field, modelling and explosions work really well.
Infographic about the risk of AIDS/HIV in the third world. The film uses typography and simple graphics to tell the story.
Clever use of super-imposing and tracking for this advert. Using boxes to separate action and have elements interact between them in a rustic setting.
Nice bit of tracking and great cinematography but still slightly tongue in cheek – I think?
directed / edited / vfx – Dimitris Ladopoulos, Spiros Rasidakis
Titles incoporating archive stills by placing them against a plane of breaking glass. Not for the very squeamish…
Title animation using purely motion graphics and clever transitions with a small colour pallete to great effect. Lots of documents.
What appears to be a great piece of motion capture was actually created using stills which were then applied to 3D models of human heads to create the idea of cameras moving around frozen action.
Static titles using close-ups of paper and documents with subtle animation to create a coded typographical sequence.
This sequence block shades the live action and adds it together with animation to create a very bold graphicly styled sequence.
Classic title sequence using live action footage placed carefully with credit typography

We are most proud of managing to create an absorbing sequence which lasted well over a minute of tv time using just one photograph.

A very rough & ready ‘parallax sequence’ sequence mainly due to the fact that as this promo was not transmitted, the small source images came from ‘google’ but still it proves quite poignant.
A title we shot some years ago in my house in Wandsworth doubling as a US government office in the 30’s. We used a boroscope lens which was about a foot in length attached to a DigiBeta camera to get in to see that dust.
