Ciao Steve
Posted in: Gods of Design, StranieriE’ come se ti avessimo conosciuto… sei stato quel vecchio amico di famiglia, geniale, di cui spesso abbiamo parlato. Pensavamo a chissà quante altre cose fantastiche avresti tirato fuori dal cilindro. Ma va bene così… ci hai già fatto vivere un bel pezzo di futuro. […]

Il video è una sorta di tutorial su come fare acquisti in maniera comoda e sicura con una nuova carta di credito… è un approccio decisamente diverso all’attuale modo di comunicare da parte delle banche e il risultato ci piace.

Tendril: Interac Flash Tutorial
Posted in: Animation, cg, Design, MotionToronto based Tendril continue their string of impressive project with Flash Tutorial / Interac, with stellar Music & Sound Design by John Black of Cypheraudio.
Check out Tenril’s Stills and Process … “Our strategy was to keep the design visually minimal and graphic as possible, relying on unexpected twists, snappy animation timing, and quick transitions to establish and maintain the pace.
On a technical level, because of the complex deformations, dimensionality, and lipsync the script called for, the wallet was rigged and animated in 3D, but rendered with flat colours to look 2D. Some other elements like the coins were also handled this way. The rest of the elements were animated in After Effects. In the end, we had a huge amount of fun creating this piece and hope you enjoy watching it!
