New Work from Birdo Studio
Posted in: 2D animation, after effects, Amir Admoni, birdo, Brazil, cel animation, flash, General, Luciana Eguti, Os Gemeos, Paulo Muppet
Check out these three recent projects from the Brazilian Birdo Studio:
Sempre Livre is a poppy, colorful Flash animated spot that was made in just 2 weeks for agency Samurai. Birdo, designed, directed, animated and handled the script as well and said they’re “proud to be able to make a commercial for sanitary napkins completely free of blue liquids!” Amen to that.
Pode Acreditar (You Can Believe) is a fun cel-animated music video, with comical and fantastic drawings appearing over the live-action shots of Marcelo D2 and Seu Jorge. In concept, it can be compared to the D.A.N.C.E. video, the Kid Cudi video or any of the many VH1 and MTV promos like this one from Click 3x that have used the same idea. Yet the personal drawing style and execution here don’t make it seem derivative at all, after all, it’s just a technique and a process.
Finally, the 33rd São Paulo International Film Festival is a collaborative project directed by Amir Admoni with characters designed by the world-renowned graffiti artists Os Gemeos. Birdo handled character animation for the festival opener.
Three cool, new, diverse projects from a small and very capable character animation studio. Fly high, Birdo, fly high!

Howdy,
Shooting a greenscreen short, set in the 1930s depression-era American South, which will utilise completely CG backgrounds. The backgrounds will consist of outdoor areas and environments, such as the outside of a house, and mostly dark and creepy woods.
Need someone who can make that look badass and very stylised, as the final product will be completely rotoscoped. Complete photo-real detail therefore is not necessary, but the fluidity that matches camera movement certainly is.
We’re also planning on filming some action sequences handheld, so that should also be taken into consideration for the backgrounds.
Please send me your demo reels that contain background modelling, preferably with plenty of camera movement.
Thanks gang.

Hi, just did first render from my new rig, and 3D MAX renders suspiciously slow. But viewport and over all program running lightning fast.
Is there any settings I’m missing?
WIN 7-64, CPU I7 920 at 3.2 GHZ, 12 GB DDR3, ATI FirePro 8700.
When rendering, CPU load is between 15-70%??? Is all render handles by Video card?

How to remove Dolly Track from footage
Posted in: The PadHi,
We are going to shoot some scenes with a dolly. The dolly stays in front of the actor and moves backwards over a rails. Before we are going to shoot this I would like to know what’s the best approach for removing the rails from the footage…? I was thinking about patching every 10 frames or so…
Some tips?
Thanks,
Maarten
