renault car ad

me and a friend did the character animation of the ant for the new renault tv-spot, poses for print and the animations for the website.

website - http://www.clio-tce.at/ (the web company did translate the stop move so it looks weired)
spot - small:
high res version video (2.2mb)

sorry for the spasms on the engine
unfortunately the production company took the engine moves from the previz instead of the final animation

not perfect
but fun little project and great to see your own work on the tv screen

ultra high end char animation :-)

since i'll try to put more stuff online here:
thats a supersimple (animationwise) product visualisation i worked on with 2 friends

cave shot with facials - not final

now with a facials

i will do another polishing pass on it
but until then i put this one online

uh you gonna like that fella

something for the phobia guys out there

playing around with a flea that was modelled by Michael Maehring
still in the rigging and trying phase
gotta rig it properly and because the pipeline seems to work (hairs are quite tricky)
then do a nice little animation

rigging and pipeline tests (video - klick on the image)

cave

monologue shot

no facial animation yet
only simple puppet mouth
also the the animation on the helmet is still pretty rough

concentrated on the body movements
facials will come after the holidays

bench

another pantomime animation
still some things to iron out
but i gotta start showing things




when i find the time i will fix:
a little more animation at the beginning to have a clearer intro
most of all - snappier stand up
eyes are still very soft
needs more pepper
on the sitdown there is some wonkyness on the head but thats an easy fix

placeholder for some not yet finished stuff
just to keep things cronological
