Turntable Test

Alpha included, we're not cheating!

First Pass on Stag in Environment

Things to note on particular test:

1. Needs a holdout matte for the Stag's geo. to prevent stray lines?
2. Clipping/changing line quality on toon shader when animated
3. Should try to see if we can control more of the glow in post, and solidity of lines in Maya

Blocking Stills

Our footage has been picked and we've blocked out the animation and have done a quick edit. Here are some sample images from our blocking:

Neon Tests! and Deer Orthos

Meridian Project: Film Shoot Photos

Here it is, some sample pictures from our little film shoot in South Pasadena. Photos shot by Wu Hyun Lew, a very talented motion graphics designer and animator ( http://creationlew.tumblr.com/ ). And major props to him for not only letting us borrow his Cannon 7d for night time filming, but also taking time out of his busy schedule to come out with us and help us shoot, what a guy!
