Hasta La Motion!

Hi
I just completed the first expedition to film some seed material for a 3D film on Humpback whales. The following screen grabs are from that footage shot on my Red One in 4K.

Hi,

I am looking for someone to help me pimp out a powerpoint. Its short but the animation is key to its success… and its success may be key to the future of mankind.

We are pitching the future of computing as a whole and the use of AI to get things done for the regular guy so its a very touchy subject (what can i say, terminator made it hard for us AI guys) and so we need something slick and bad ass at the same time.

The job consists of a simple animated title/opening sequence, then showing someone entering 5 tasks they want to get done into a phone, and then showing them being done one at a time automagically.

Sequence is basically:

The title – needs to be cool, its really a fly-in/burn-in of the name of our software – have ideas of how we want that to look… less is more with good vfx!

The next slide is someone entering 5 tasks into their phone… again less is more so probably just a phone with a hand hovering over it

The next 5 slides each show the tasks getting done, we want it clean so against a white backdrop (powerpoint style but actually pocoyo syle*) with the phone on the left and ’24’ style animation showing the jobs getting done in popups on the right… then checking off job done before moving to the next one.

The last slide is the closing slide and we havent thought of it much yet – probably our company logo animated and some text saying if we beat skynet to it the world will be a safe place.

In summary the job is really really cool opening and closing logo animations and then clean animation and comping for the slides showing the stuff getting done, probably 3d with a 2d cartoon shader for the hand. because its simple its hard not to make it look tacky so i need someone who can do this stuff kick ass.

We are building a AI here so remember the future of planet may be in your hands, dont apply if you dont think you work can convince the president to help us.

This is paid work but not sure the cost of something like this is and we also dont have a massive budget. We also want it done in the next 3-5 days (yes a rush job)

Please email me if you are interested on karsten at silversoft dot com

Thanks

* for a idea of pocoyo style see http://images.easyart.com/i/prints/r…coyo-91952.jpg – not the characters but that kind of blank matrix look of a white background with depth.

Hello,

When I try to apply depth blur over a paint effects rendered maya iff file there is this blur around the edges in the area that should be sharp. It’s a problem I always have. What could be the problem? (see attachment)

Thanks
