SF Motors

Worked on a team with a core-group of animator/ designers. The Animation/Design team had 2 weeks to design and execute this spot. There were a few other designers who worked on this project a week prior but a few had to leave the project so there was a core group of 3-5 motion designers at any one time. This was one of those projects that only was possible because the designers/ animators working on this were fully committed and spent many late-nights to ensure everything was done correctly and we all fed off each other’s energy. The flame artists were super friendly and were willing to also put in the effort, the engineering team were always ready to help us diagnose and trouble-shoot any technical issues and ofcourse the complete trust from our Creative Director Andrei and Producer Nicholas made this a fun project to work on.

Just a few frames from the cut below. We worked in Cinema 4D and X-Particles for the texturing and animation and worked in Arnold. A very enjoyable project.
