surround sight

by ciaran on May.25, 2011, under motion design, news

Following on from a busy April was a more hectic and busier May.  Topping off the month, which included some tidy regular jobs and unfortunately turning down a handful more, was this batch of live visuals for Range Rover’s Evoque Live launch.

The purpose-built 150-seater theatre/cinema had a screen measuring 4m high x 40m wide, which provided a wrap-around view for the visuals and made for some epic eye-candy, along with a whole load of different considerations and parameters to bear in mind beforehand.   Read more about the work involved here…

Change of a lifetime

Get Microsoft Silverlight

2 weeks of work crammed into 1, many late nights, crashed renders and a boatload of top shelf design in conjunction with agency Mason Zimbler gave rise to this massive piece for Microsoft’s annual Partner Network Conference in the US during the summer and again in the UK in October. More info on the project here.

You’ll need to have Silverlight installed to watch this video. But wait! Still can’t see it?  Just getting a blank rectangle?  Hitting F5 to refresh the page usually works! On an iPad/iPhone? No chance – cheers Steve.

Droplets Series 2 launch night

by ciaran on May.26, 2010, under motion design, news, play

Check out this quick piece with Jam Factory design genius Gav Strange about his Droplets launch night some weeks back for which I did some motion design of epic proportions… Pretty stoked to see the animation projected on the Banksy wall opposite 50-50 that night. Props to Gav and Makinov for putting this together.

Muscular and compact, like corned beef…

by ciaran on May.02, 2010, under motion design, news, work

Amidst the day to day professions I’ve got on the go, such as wearing smoking jackets, testing cognac and Cuban cigars, alongside the awesomeness of motion design, I’m also cutting together a new showreel. The best/worst part has been working out the intricacies and complications involved with multipass renders, object buffers and not using motion blur when exporting from C4D and doing my best to avoid crucifying my arse to my face.

Footage looks pretty damn good I have to say, but sweet jesus it better when it takes 3 hours to render each frame!
