For their 2012 edition, Pause asked Postpanic to contribute to their popular Pause Cribs section - a series of films made by individual studios to show where they work and create. In typical Postpanic fashion, we got over-excited and threw ourselves into the challenge unleashing the dark directing force of Doma Harkai, the Hungarian member of our in-house motion design team, onto the project. Shot entirely at Postpanic with only the slightest hint of some VFX, Doma welcomes you to Pause Cribs Postpanic-style.</span></p>http://four-strings.tumblr.com/post/36364810039http://four-strings.tumblr.com/post/36364810039Fri, 23 Nov 2012 13:23:44 -0500InspirationPausePost Panic<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/54141579" width="400" height="160" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><p><h1>Playgrounds Fest 2012 Main Titles by @gaborekes @mrkfolio @Fotli Sound by @theECHOLAB </h1></p>http://four-strings.tumblr.com/post/36363241807http://four-strings.tumblr.com/post/36363241807Fri, 23 Nov 2012 12:57:39 -0500InspirationPlayground Festival<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/53954565" width="400" height="225" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><h1>Lumos // We Are Lumos by <a href="https://vimeo.com/giantant" rel="author">Giant Ant</a> </h1> <p class="first">Client: Lumos<br/>Agency: Global Natives<br/>Production: Giant Ant<br/>Music: Giant Ant</p> <p>Global Natives brought us in to help craft the story of Lumos as part of a re-launch they were orchestrating.<br/>The story is voiced by Lumos founder J.K.

A band lives the American Dream, symbolizing the ascent of a basement musician to stardom across the horizontal zoetrope layers. They move from the underground scene to stardom with the help of their fans and social networks, finally reach the top of the carousel and perform at the MTV EMA.</p> <p>The realization of the main trailer and more than a dozen alterations raised technical challenges and led Sehsucht to finding unique solutions. To be able to create an extremely realistic look, Maxwell Render was chosen as render technology. 3D design was implemented in the character design at an early stage. <br/>The tool Pixologic Sculptris enabled intuitive character work by designing 3D characters and using the models instantly. Animating the elements was a further challenge since the complete zoetrope is a virtual scale model, nothing is faked. Therefore, everything had to work in loops built in 24 single ‘sculptures’.</p> <p>Download Wallpapers on the right.</p> <p>Credits</p> <p>Production Company: Sehsucht Berlin GmbH & Co KG, Berlin/Germany <br/>Director: Mate Steinforth<br/>Artists: Remo Gambacciani, Helge Kiehl, Florian Panzer, David Weidemann, Christian Zschunke<br/>Producer: Christina Geller, Christian Jacks<br/>Music: Nikolai von Sallwitz, Sound Architecture</p> <p>Client & Lead Creative Direction: VIMN MTV World Design Studio, Milan/Italy<br/>Creative Director: Roberto Bagatti<br/>Associate Creative Director: Anna Caregnato<br/>Senior Designer: Giorgio Schwarz<br/>Art Director: James Walpole/Carlos Carrasco<br/>Senior Producer: Cristina Mazzocca<br/>Coordinator: Beatrice Cardile</p> <p>Software<br/>Cinema 4D, After Effects, Maxwell Render, Sculptris</p>http://four-strings.tumblr.com/post/35566890399http://four-strings.tumblr.com/post/35566890399Mon, 12 Nov 2012 11:12:35 -0500InspirationSehsucht<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/53080745" width="400" height="168" frameborder="0"></iframe><br/><br/><h1>SILENT HILL 2 -
