Galp ‘Autocarro’ – Rushes Post Epic Journey For Portuguese Energy Provider Press Release
Rushes completed post on this 90 second film for Portuguese energy provider Galp which features the Portuguese National football team as they travel across the landscape of Europe on their way to the finals of Euro 2008.
Rushes’ VFX Artists Richie White, Omar Akkari and Adam Watson describe working on the project …
Rushes has a good working relationship with Ministério Dos Filmes from working with them on a very successful commercial for Portuguese Bank 'BANIF' in which we composited a centaur in December of last year. Ministério Dos Filmes have always been a fantastic client to work for as they have a great understanding of what is needed on set to give the best results in post.
In the Galp 'Autocarro' commercial, Rushes worked on several crowd replication shots, some with scenic enhancements and general clean up. Before shooting began we discussed the specifics of how to film the different passes & plates of shots that would need work in post. Ministerio Dos Filmes came back with some fantastic footage with which to create the 90 and 30 second spots.
In one particular shot, hundreds of people appear to push a bus through a dramatic mountainous landscape. The bus is in the distance on a winding road as the continuous line of people snake through the landscape. We see the crowd all the way from the distance to very close to frame, giving the viewer a chance to see reaction and body language within the crowd. This shot was made up of 6 crowd plates and 4 background plates that built-up the landscape. In some of these plates we used green-screen to give us detailed mattes and help us to build a seamless composite. In other shots we changed lighting and skies to help the edit run more fluidly.
Rushes’ Colourist Simone Grattarola comments, “Although there was a language barrier, Ze Pedro and myself found common ground with music. We had the sounds of Elbow, Maps, the Cold War Kids, Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan (who made it onto the soundtrack!) fuelling our session!”
The journey takes the Portuguese team to the Euro 2008 finals in Austria via Spain and France with the team bus being pushed by an ever increasing group of fans. Each country carried a slightly different feel. Simone used the Spirit and the Da Vinci 2K to help achieve a beautifully stylised vista of Europe.
Simone adds, “The original cut was a 60" and when Ze Pedro took it back to the clients they decided they wanted to extend the film to a 90"!

90-Second P.S.A. from MTV, Ogilvy & Mather Amsterdam, Shilo and
The Burma Arts Board Debuts Worldwide to Drive Aid and Awareness
for Burma Crisis Press Release
NEW YORK and DEL MAR, CA. - (May 15, 2008) - The filmmakers from
creative production company Shilo (www.shilo.tv) recently
collaborated with an extraordinary group of individuals and
organizations to create a powerful animated :90 public service
announcement (PSA). The piece, entitled "Burma Viral," uses footage
of warplanes bombing Burma with flowers as a dramatic call-to-action,
inviting viewers to visit a new Burma Arts Board website,
noneofusarefree.org, where they can send messages of support to the
people of Burma in honor of their continuing struggles against the
notorious practices of their oppressive military government, learn
more about the devastating effects caused by the recent cyclone, and
find ways to contribute to relief efforts.
Uniting the talents of Shilo with those of Carl Le Blond, Executive
Creative Director at Ogilvy & Mather Amsterdam, John Jackson,
Director of Social Responsibility, MTV Networks, Suki Dusanj,
Founder of The Burma Arts Board, activist Sam Roddick and others,
the provocative film debuted today on participating MTV networks
worldwide, via countless video-sharing websites around the globe,
and in New York's Times Square, where it will be screened throughout
the day on MTV's 25-by-40 foot HD Jumbotron near 44th Street.
"As Cyclone Nargis tore across Burma, the world witnessed one of the
worst natural disasters in history," said Suki Dusanj. "Since then,
the world has watched the military Junta block aid from reaching
those who need it so desperately. It is our hope that this Burma
Viral will circulate around the world and into Burma, and bring about
the changes necessary to make the aid and rescue efforts effective ˆ
and to allow the Burmese people the freedom to enjoy the civil
liberties they deserve."
"This spot somehow talks directly to the emotions we feel about the
current humanitarian crisis in Burma," said John Jackson. "We know
that people desperately need help and we also know it is not reaching
them. The narrative conjures up a task force that brings a powerful
message of support to the people of Burma, and an urgent appeal to
donate to the international relief effort."
Continuing, Jackson explained, "As the hours and days pass, the need
grows greater and so too will the aid that is required. A
humanitarian disaster is slowly turning into a catastrophe. If at
times like this we can use the particular skills we have to help,
then the creative power of Shilo and Ogilvy have been brought
together at full force to get funds to those that need it. MTV are
proud to be part of this collaboration."
"Since long before this disaster occurred, the people of Burma have
been oppressed: They have not been free to express themselves," began
Shilo co-founder, creative director and director André Stringer.
"Speaking on behalf of a group of individuals who make art everyday
for our livelihoods, we place a tremendous value on personal
expression. So when Carl contacted us, shared his script and asked if
we wanted to direct it, we jumped at the chance. We immediately
realized that this project could help to make a difference for a
nation of more than 55 million people being denied the rights we take
for granted ˆ and that it would be the most important piece of work
we've ever created.
"After the cyclone hit," Stringer went on, "we realized we could make
some slight changes to the film and the campaign site, and possibly
have an even greater positive impact on the people of Burma at a time
when their needs are even more desperate."
The project began as a dialogue between Le Blond and Jackson. Last
year, Le Blond wrote a script, and since then, had been searching for
the right production partner. "I had this script which, though I
thought worked, would have been prohibitively expensive to execute,
just because of the scale implications involved," said Le Blond.
"Then as I started thinking of other ways to try to make it, I spotted
a film by Shilo which just took my fancy. When I spoke with Shilo,
there was an immediate understanding of what we were trying to do."
According to Tracy Chandler, Executive Producer for Shilo, things
clicked quickly from there. "There was no pretense, there was no
negotiation," she said. "Everybody was in and everybody was excited,
and we all knew that the film had to touch people so that they'd want
to share it with others and get involved in the cause."
Since the film's imagery would have been impractical to obtain via
live-action cinematography, Shilo chose a very multi-media approach.
The visual content was created by Shilo's artists using Autodesk Maya
for 3D, QUBE for managing renders, Mental Ray for rendering, Adobe
Photoshop for texturing, Adobe After Effects for compositing, and
Final Cut Pro for editing. Reflecting a great amount of audio
research, concepting and exploration by Shilo's team, the PSA's
soundtrack was ultimately performed and mastered by the artists at
Amsterdam-based Good Sounds.
"The crux of the film's story is based in juxtaposition and surprise:
An ominous set-up gives way to hope. The flowers are the perfect
icon for that," Stringer said. "My favorite shot involves a really
close-up shot of a flower fluttering in front of the camera, where
the camera has a lot of shake on it. Seeing that scene made me
realize that the flowers had already become characters for us, like
they were paratroopers falling on D-Day. Some look really lyrical,
beautiful and fluid, and some of them dive with intensity. To me,
it's really cool to be able to take something like a flower and let
it become a paratrooper ˆ or a performer that can poetically deliver
a powerful message, as these do."
Jose Gomez, who along with Stringer is co-founder, creative director
and director for Shilo, shared his own perspective on this project.
"An important goal for each of us, in every project we take on, is
getting people to think," he said. "This project is the ultimate
example of that. As directors, we generally regard ourselves as
provocateurs, but in this case, we're actually activists, hoping that
those who see this film will help us to make positive differences for
the people of Burma."
"From the very beginning, everyone I met at Shilo was just
automatically going above and beyond∑ and that to me is what
filmmaking is all about," added Le Blond. "It's about complete
collaboration, to actually make something better than just a script.
As the details of the cyclone came to light, that same spirit allowed
us to take the film a step further, to a point where it can
potentially heighten relief efforts, while also raising awareness for
the societal difficulties these people face every day, even under
normal circumstances."
For Ogilvy & Mather Amsterdam, Brenda Bentz van den Berg served as the
project's agency producer. Shilo's project team also included
executive producer (UK) Mark Hanrahan, Stringer's fellow lead artists

Unexpected Uses Krakatoa on VFX-Intensive Ad Campaign for Snickers via BBDO
Moscow Press Release
Frantic Films Software, the software
development arm of VFX studio Frantic Films (a division of Prime Focus
Group), announced that its high-volume point-based particle renderer
Krakatoa was used by German post facility Unexpected on a recent commercial
campaign for Snickers Russia. The two-spot effort via ad agency BBDO
Moscow and Spy Films, Toronto, combines feature film-quality VFX with
live-action to tell a story of biomechanical creatures that use Snickers as
their energy supply. The first spot "RUGBY," is currently airing
throughout Russia, while a second spot, "TAG," breaks in fall 2008.
Founded in 1999 and currently boasting a 35-member team of directors, VFX
artists and animators, Stuttgart, Germany-based post-production studio
Unexpected is behind some of the most VFX-intensive commercial, TV and film
projects in Europe. Unexpected's VFX team is led by Managing Director and
Co-Founder Alexander Kiesl and Head of Visual Effects Steffen Hacker.
Krakatoa was added to the company's Autodesk 3ds Max production pipeline in
October 2007.
Krakatoa is Frantic Film Software's production-proven volumetric point
renderer ideal for creating believable and finely detailed natural
phenomena, like dust, smoke, silt, ocean surface foam, plasma and even
solid objects. The latest Snickers campaign was the studio's first project
using Krakatoa, which was employed to help boost several key CG shots.
Said Steffen Hacker, Head of Visual Effects, Unexpected, "Our studio's
primary tools are Autodesk 3ds Max, Pixologic Zbrush, Adobe Photoshop CS3
and Adobe After Effects CS3 running primarily on Dell Dimensions with
Windows XP x64 running on 64bit CPUs. Krakatoa integrated effortlessly
with our pipeline and renderfarm, and it proved to be a powerful addition
to our VFX arsenal on this recent job."
In addition to heading up Unexpected's VFX department, Kiesl and Hacker are
also award-winning commercial directors. Working under the moniker Alex &
Steffen, the duo has been helming commercials for the likes of Microsoft
Xbox, World Wildlife Fund, and the Finnish Ministry of Transport since
2005. Alex & Steffen are repped by Spy Films in Toronto, but bring all
projects into Unexpected for visual effects and post.
This is the second Snicker campaign from Unexpected and Alex & Steffen.
Their first was in 2006, with the spots "ROBOTS" and "RACE." That campaign
was such a success, BBDO Moscow approached the company again to raise the
bar even higher for the 2007-2008 effort.
In the Snickers "RUGBY" spot, hybrid robot-human creatures play rugby on an
abandoned military plane boneyard. In the ad's climax, one of the
creatures loses all its energy and disassembles into a huge cloud of dust
and debris. "We didn't want to go for a seen-before morph and didn't want
to use the mechanical explosion disassemble we used to animate the first
two Snickers spots, so a more natural, organic transformation was needed,"
explains Hacker. "We experimented a lot with other plug-ins for 3ds Max,
but none of them achieved the look we were going for. Then we discovered
Frantic Films Software's Krakatoa."
The transformation and re-transformation shots in "RUGBY" were to include a
huge amount of particles. Unexpected had originally planned to do all the
particle animation using 3ds Max's particle system Particle Flow. However,
the team discovered that its renderer-of-choice couldn't churn out the
number of particles it wanted to integrate into the transformation shots.
So after researching all the particle simulators available, Alex & Steffen
decided to give Krakatoa a shot.
"The first test scenes that particle artist Emil Stefanov set up while we
were shooting contained several hundred thousand particles and were
extremely quick, and then our more sophisticated test scenes containing
millions of particles outputted pretty efficiently as well," said Hacker.
"It was then that Alex and I looked at each other and thought, 'hey, maybe
this Krakatoa is actually going to do the job!' We found Krakatoa's
saving-out feature of particles to PRT sequences a particularly brilliant
tool. This allowed a calculation to be recycled for different passes such
as for the diffuse layer, RGB layer for different PFlow events and, of
course, for changing values afterward, like size of particles. Even though
Krakatoa doesn't support Particle Age, color info could still be saved out
within the PRTs to use as a mask for the compositing artist."
Krakatoa was mainly used for all transformation and re-transformation shots
of the main characters. In addition, the tool was employed to create
discreet and detailed particle animation, such as falling rust and
dispersed dust from the moving characters. Krakatoa also gave the Snickers
product shot added appeal by integrating several million particles to
accentuate the Snickers bar's movement.
Krakatoa features that Unexpected particularly liked included how the
toolset handled matte objects as selection sets, and the intuitive and
clearly arranged renderer user interface. Frantic Films Software
substituted the small checkboxes with checkbuttons that were hard-to-miss,
and right-click options made the settings overview and troubleshooting
easier. And because the UI is a MaxScript, it can be adjusted individually
to suit the artist, who can add more functions or change the color of the
background buttons to different shades at will. Even the learning curve was
not as steep as anticipated-Unexpected's 3ds Max TD Jörg Häberle learned
Krakatoa during the project in a very short period of time, and was fully
working with its project files a few days later.
"Krakatoa performed under our very demanding commercial production
schedule, and we've seen only a fraction of what the software can do.
Without a doubt, we'll be using Krakatoa on future projects. I highly
recommend this tool to anyone with a general knowledge of particle setups
and a lot of creativity, because you can really help make magic with this
useful tool," said Hacker.

Janix: If you want to make a movie like this I suggest you start saving up some money to buy a good camera, blue screens and several of software such as maya, cinema 4d, Adobe Suite CS3 with After Effects and maybe Autodesk, maybe a total cost of at least 1 million USD. A cheaper suggestion is to take a course or study to become a 3d animator, motion graphic designer or get a degree in media. Then you can make movies like these, or at least something similar :)
kind regards.

Oh great it's not enough that stupid tourist killed Binky by trying to get close to him in his cage.Now another cute and fuzzy commercial about an animal that in reality is as a friendly as a tank.Loved it anyway, only the scene in the cross walk looked a little strange.Can I do that with pinnacle?Just kidding.
