Latvia’s State Forests commercial
Karlis writes:
These 3 commercials were made as encouragement for people to go in nature and leave all bad, stressful city things in forest.
Timelapse of 3 different places in forests where captured and words – stress, anger and routine were placed in them. All 3D was done in Blender.
Production: Hypnosis Group
Idea: Mooz
That … is actually quite clever an illustrative. Nice work!
I love it, good idea and execution , wish we had commercials like these here.
Aaahaaha! That’s my country!
Karlis – how did you make a timelapse effect?
We went to the forest at late evening and waited for morning to come. We set up filming equipment with first sunlight and spent all day there capturing 1 frame every 2 minutes. :) Nature is a real timelapse.. a bit processed to take off the flicker by clouds and light changes.
looks awesome! and i think he means how did you do a timelapse effect in 3d…at least, that’s what I want to know. :)
Well, there is some soft body simulation + lattice deforming and simple keyframe animation involved. To have the effect of timelapse we moved keyframes manually to randomise and to have nonconsistent, jagged movement.
Молодцы, очень интересная работа. ;)
o.O
“Молодцы, очень интересная работа.” = “Well done, guys. Very interesting work.”
o.O
Spasiba. :)
I was quite amazed that i find my country in the news feed ;D
And when i saw those commercials on tv, i had a feeling it had been done in blender… :D
Is that a good or a bad thing?
Ofcourse a good thing!
Labi pastradats!
Awesome!
Our forests are very beautiful too… I hope that most of russian people will understand this.
nice work but the sound effects especially for the wetland seem a but too squashy. Nice work over all:)
maybe some wire frames…
I somewhat agree. And yes, maybe we will make breakdown of this.
Wow, very well done. How did you synchronize the lighting?
It was a bit tricky, yes. Light direction was matched manually. We made some geometry to mimic shadows of trees, but the synchronisation was actually made in compositing.. some shadows are 2D illusion too, made in compositing… using After Effects. I would like to use Blender for that, but it would be pain in the ass..
Greaaaaaat… my folks from Latvia are rocking the house :D
EU Kārli, jums nevajag vēl kādu blenderisu komanā :))))
In English, please.
I asked (in Latvian) if he needs +1 blenderist in his team :)
Thanks! Posting in two languages is fine with me – that way everybody can join in the conversation ;-)
We actually are searching for motion designers and cgi professionals all the time. If you have interest and good works, maybe we can manage something. Contact us.
Just don’t leave trash in the forest please.
The voice somehow sounds like someone playing a recording backwards. XD
