Dark Noir, a co-created animated short film by Rafael Grampá, Absolut and Facebook fans worldwide.
The ambitious challenge invited people around the world to unleash their imaginations and transform their ideas into an animated film. During a live interactive three-week period, on Facebook/Absolut, Grampá encouraged consumers to take part and influence the action and storyline as he wrote it. To help him transform his 2D characters and script into 3D, Grampá teamed up with Red Knuckles animation studio.

Grampá, Rick Thiele and Mario Ucci and their team of animators then transformed the crowd-sourced suggestions into an animated short film which premiered at MADE Berlin March 2014.

Animatronics is mainly used in movie making, but also in theme parks and other forms of entertainment. Its main advantage over CGI and stop motion is that the simulated creature has a physical presence moving in front of the camera in real time. The technology behind animatronics has become more advanced and sophisticated over the years, making the puppets even more realistic and lifelike.

CGI Animated Stereoscopic Film HD: "Flux" by High Sim Studi


CGI Animated Stereoscopic Film HD: "Flux" by High Sim Studi  


A very nice CGI animated promo piece called "Flux" by the talented folks at High Sim Studios! For more information and questions please visit: http://www.hi-sim.co.uk/

Flux is a Hi-Sim Studios, in-house promo. Set in a dramatic location, wide open desert planes are adorned with futuristic structures and beings. A group of hi-spec machines enter an adrenalin fuelled ball game.

The characters were originally designed for a commercial short film, that unfortunately didn't come into fruition. Having to compromise the original script, we took the characters and decided to make an entirely new promo consisting of themes that we are passionate about: Sci-fi, design, robots and football.

We use each in-house project as an opportunity to develop our understanding of film making and new techniques. Flux is our first stereoscopic film.
