SpecialGuest/Vinicius Costa: Zune HD
Posted in: 1st ave machine, central planning, General, microsoft, SpecialGuest, vinicius costa, zune
1st Ave Machine’s colorful alter ego, SpecialGuest, presents a new spot for Zune HD. This spot is Vinicius Costa’s commercial directorial debut with SpecialGuest, following his fantastic short film earlier this year.
From Vinicius: “For this spot I decided to represent high definition in a different way using light, contrast and colors.” No doubt! As with his other work, there’s endless playful, loving details lighting up the environment around them – hopping notes on the turntable, the mixing board faders amidst the vinyl records, the sonic mountains, the dimensionality of the other worlds through the Zune window, to name a few.

Nuke – Testimonials Passion Pictures Harness Nuke for Commercials  © 2009 Audi, image courtesy of Passion Pictures "The 3D space is a really impressive feature of Nuke. It feels like the 3D compositing has been built from the ground up, rather than being a tack-on. Although we have not imported massive amounts of geometry, we know we can, and it works.” says Neil Riley, VFX Supervisor at Passion Pictures. Discover why Passion Pictures chose Nuke in this case study. "We are excited by the new possibilities Nuke opens up for us. The integration into our pipeline has been seamless." |
