Promo for Five FWD



Just recently finished working on a promo for channel five's new internet based web channel 'Five FWD' with The House of Curves.

some info from their website:


"Tune in to FIVE and you’ll see an ad on high rotation featuring a multitude of gadgets whizzing around the screen. It’s the launch of Five’s web based technology and gadget channel called FIVE FWD, created over 14 intense days at The House of Curves....

....Almost as quickly as placeholders were being created, Adam Dewhirst and a team of modellers were transforming them into beautifully crafted and detailed models. The slick renders are a testament to the great modelling abilities of our students....

(should add at this point, I'm not one of their students, although I have learned alot from these guys!)

you can read the whole article here: FIVE FWD

For my part i had to model a variety of photo real models to interact with each other. One of the more challenging parts was to create a camcorder that transformed into a huge array of gadgets including projectors, tv's speakers and even a telescope.

I also had a chance to do some simple shading work which was great fun and a nice change of pace.

will post the video as soon as it comes online!
