Making Of Nikon Nikon Serbian Of this work a very special memory:
I animated in one week, a week really special ... In fact, after delivery (within the next week) and 'born my second daughter Anna, which "ideally" I dedicated the efforts of this spot
We note in July 2006
As usual it was a fruitful and I would say "super efficient" collaboration with his friend Raymond, who suggested that I care (based on drawings of another "Great "creative and friend, Mauro-Maurone-Angeloni) the characters for a commercial web for Nikon (Nikon importer for Italy) and the accuracy of the launch of a new compact camera (coolpix) ...
were four people who had "experience" for the full 30 seconds of CGI (it was the year of "The Incredibles" for which the customer is still waiting for a spot that, according to the means and the money involved, remember that film! WOW --- What a challenge!)
one week to hand it to model and rig (again .. The Setup Machine2 save me (and fortunately my mastery of this tool allows me a wide margin customization and speed really remarkable in rigged the characters ...)
NB, from animator (but with the mania for "Technique" consider the make-Rigging animation setup ... - as a necessary evil that it is better know to have good tools available during character animation even when you can not use a rigger ...)
The facial setup I did "copy" the idea of \u200b\u200bhaving a making of a film ("Delgo") deforming the mesh based on curves, with presets for "posing" (via DrivenKey) to invoke certain "forms" of the face .. (Funny that the case then I returned the beta-testing a tool that uses facial rigging uin concept like The Face Machine .. just ..)
The second week of work (I was in fibrillation for 'impending birth of Anna, as well as' back again from the aftermath of Italy celebration of "World "..).. is devoted to animation, and I counted the days ...
I shot 11 and 7 days ... and this is one spot so I can not defer too much ...
fortunately work smoothly and I do not even Ray "puts too spoke in the wheel" with the retake (evidently beginning to understand their tastes!;)) .. that I'm in the scheduled delivery (the ray leaving time to do the lighting and the render to be sent to the production (handled, among other things, a third exemplary also part of the team spot Ceres : Alessandro Romano!)
I must say that this spot at the end looks good and still are satisfied with the work done is for the time used, and because even shot it seems to me worthy of note (from a technical point of view of course)
the next ..
hello!
