ANIMATIC: Wii Transform
Starting with the classic Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) the console begins to open and break apart, revealing sections of the Super NES. Each system is formed from its predecessor and is left intact for a beat, until transforming into the next system. Finally reaching the last, (and now current) Nintendo Wii.
ANIMATIC: NINTENDO Wii Download Store
A series of 2.5d images of NES game cartridges begin to fill the screen. Appearing on cue with the songs beat, it begins to create a large plane of classic NES, SNES and N64 game titles. Slowly we see a 2d image begin to pull itself up into a 3d world. A large “sea” of 3d cartridges fills the air. Coming together to build something… as the camera pulls out we see they have formed the iconic “question-mark box” from the super Mario Brothers game series. Leaving the question… “what will you download?”
ANIMATIC: Reinvented Ford Classic
1: “TEASER” The classic car zooms in and out of focus. Only in the last shot do we catch a small glimpse of the modern redesign.
2: In a series of 60’s inspired 2.5d images, we see the classic Ford on a drive through the open roads. The paint then begins to peal and flow off the car as if made of fabric. Revealing the reinvented classic in its, new, modern day form (in full 3d) driving through the winding city streets.
This is a small collection of various 3d models and animations.
