Asylum Goes Upside Down For Ad Council

[NEWS=”http://www.cgnews.com/wp-content/uploads/adcouncil_thumb.jpg”]21959[/NEWS]Asylum has created a sobering new spot for the Ad Council that highlights the importance of being prepared when disaster strikes. In World Upside Down Asylum Lead VFX/Inferno Artist Rob Trent guides his team through a world literally turned on its head by the coming of a natural disaster. To create this chaotic world, Asylum tapped into Flame, Shake, Silhouette, Maya and Syntheses software to bring together a collage of flying props propelled by wire rigging, shot falling on greenscreen, or, in the case of the largest objects, tastefully animated and rendered in CG. Due to the complexity of mingling live actors with dangerous falling objects, multiple takes were required, and the final :60 is a seamless collage of six core passes overlapping one another, often retimed and warped together to sync the correct action.

“Putting together a spot with so many moving parts, especially under tight time constraints, is always challenging, but we have worked with both Cramer-Krasselt and @radical before, and both are talented partners,” noted Trent.

“Derin’s (Seale) vision and production crew really knew how to get the actors moving correctly on the wires on shoot day, and everything from the choreographed wire-lift of mom and dad, to the clothing and hair blowing in the wind of massive fans, to the set lighting was beautifully done, perfectly capturing the drama that such a spot requires. The editors at Whitehouse and a final mix from Eleven Sound rounded out what ended up being an all-around wonderful spot.”

D.A.D.D.Y. B.B.A.B

daddy_sheep
Dublin-based directing team, D.A.D.D.Y., has once again laid there quirky hand on an unlikely brand. In association with Mother, London and Blink Ink, they’ve created four fake, animated PSAs for the “British Biscuit Advisory Board” (Rocky Biscuits) to promote safe biscuit-eating practices.

Both the characters and copy are rendered with a classic, dry British wit. Here’s all four of the films: Temp Storage, Quality Control, Opening Education & Meal Health.
