3D Graphics and Character Design for Home Entertainment.
3D Graphics and Character Design for Home Entertainment.
Client: New Line Home Entertainment via The Cimarron Group.
Art Director: Susan Adams.
Animation: Dean Fowler via Machine Films.
Project Date: Fall 2004
While working at The Cimarron Group running a 3D Department/Division, I did animation and graphics for the Home Entertainment Division headed up by Susan Adams. This project was unique in that the film makers were not allowed to use the characters from the film due to some legal situation with Rankin and Bass the inventors of the stop motion look in the 70's that was emulated in the film ELF.
I designed new unique characters and brought in Dean Fowler the best character animator I have worked with to bring them to life. I did the typical DVD package animated with some DVD's coming out and did some backgrounds to match the look of the film. FUN stuff!
