Morando "Gatto Umido" 15"

2011-11-10T17:36:00.000+01:00

Per restare in tema di Morphing ecco un'altro lavoro che mi ha visto impegnato soprattutto per le scene del packshot nei quali mi sono occupato,oltre che del composite, di effettuare con un'effetto di luce che anticipa il tutto,una piccola transizione tra l'ape bidimensionale stampata sul bollo della confezione e l'ape che si alza in volo e ci accompagna,seguita attentamente dal gatto, per tutto lo spot.
L'ape volante è stata magistralmente creata in CGI e animata da Francesco Gasparotto,uno dei più talentuosi artisti digitali in circolazione, con il quale collaboro spesso e volentieri,la regia è di Maurizio Longhi ,produzione Filmmaster.
In alto un un paio di Still frames per gustare meglio l'effetto compositato sulla scena, mentre di seguito la clip con l'intero filmato.

Fiat Panda - Fashination - shots case history

2011-10-27T15:22:00.000+02:00

Eccovi una scena alla quale ho lavorato sodo e che ho estrapolato da un Fashination che presentava il nuovo modello di Fiat Panda in occasione dello scorso Salone dell'Automobile di Francoforte che si è tenuto dal 15 al 25 settembre 2011.
Qui il mio intervento è stato quello di unire, attraverso la tecnica del Motion Morph, due filmati della macchina girati in location differenti (vedi di seguito la clip girata in città e la clip girata al lago) in maniera da rendere uniforme la macchina stessa mentre viaggia.
Il tutto durante la transizione del background che si trasforma attraverso molteplici macchie d'inchiostro e giochi di acquerello che portano dalla città al lago così come si vede bene nella scena finita.

Un'altra scena interessante che mi ha impegnato è stata quella del bosco dove invece si partiva da un limbo bianco sulla quale a partire dalla macchina,quasi fosse un pennello, viene disegnata man mano l'intera scena sempre attraverso l'uso di macchie d'inchiostro e aquerello ritardati nel tempo per creare una coreografia dinamica e suggestiva.

A completare il tutto sono state aggiunte sul manto stradale le foglie ,elaborate in cgi, che si spostano al passaggio dell'auto.

Di seguito la scena girata e il risultato finale.

Ecco alcuni still frames e di seguito un filmatino a bassa risoluzione dello spot della nuova Alfa MITO grazie alla quale mi sono per così dire un po' "scaricato".
Per l'occasione ho infatti realizzato tutte o quasi le scariche elettriche,gli archi elettrici ed in generale gli effetti di luce e scintille che alimentano lo spot e sottolineano l'energia che si sprigiona ancora una volta dai piatti del noto dj Bob Sinclar.
Alla regia il pluripremiato Alessandro Pacciani,giovane talento italiano che vive nel paese del sol levante....produzione Filmmaster.

After a long post production time the psychological thriller Twisted Path, shot between Italy and California by filmmaker Federico Rivia, is finally completed. Federico was born in Italy and moved to Hollywood to work as Visual Effects Artist for blockbuster movies like Spider-Man 1 and 2, Mission Impossible 2, 2012 etc. Federico and I met over ten years ago. We worked together for a couple of years at Ubik Visual Effects, high-end post-production house based in Milan, and remained friends since then.Twisted Path is Federico's first feature film. I was lucky to watch it and I must say I really enjoyed it. I definitively look forward to see Federico's next movie.The movie is currently available on Amazon in Blu-ray format. Hopefully will be available in Italy soon.

This is a long-waited reprint of the valuable collection of materials left by Saul Bass (1920-1996), the leading designer of the 20th century America. The essence of Saul Bass including his representative CI's, graphical works, and movie titles, are collected into one book.
Saul Bass's creative work had gone beyond the borders of graphic design. Bass is one of the first designers to expand his activities into the fields of images and animation. Bass created many masterpieces of movie posters. He is also well-known for bringing a completely new style to the title designs of movies, which until then were merely lists of names of the directors and actors. Bass's designs for movies such as "West Side Story," "Psycho," "Vertigo," "Bonjour Tristesse," "The Man with the Gold Arm," and "North by Northwest" are, today, still full of refreshing surprises.

CAVA

Yesterday with my great pleasure i knew Sergio on the web,the son of CAVA...simply a myth!
The beloved humorist Osvaldo "Cava" Cavandoli (1920-2007) is best known for the genius of a character he created from a single line, aptly known as LA LINEA ("The Line").
He also worked working independently as a director and a producer of stop motion films...a very unique and inimitable italian artist!

Here an original CAVA drawing that I bought in Milan some years ago.
