Toolfarm Inspirations: April 2004

Erik Lauritzen - motion-graphics.com

Besides having a domain name that I'm sure people would fight over, motion-graphics.com, Erik's work is marvelous... really cool and different. One of my students alerted me to his site after asking me how he did the Lance Armstrong animation.

Fabulous compositing and 3D, and really good compression on their Quicktimes. The Embassy Visual Effects Inc. has created some (un)believable and seamless effects for the big screen. I love the creeping roses and the collapsing Guggenheim.

So, I'm cleaning out my massive hoarde of bookmarks and I come across this little gem - WDDG, a design firm. Their Anamorph video is one of the most stylish and unique videos I've ever seen.

Charlie Company - Incredible!

Wow! This is one of the best reels I've ever seen. It starts off with cool live action vector-looking people (ala iPod) and then goes into a stellar showcase of work. My fave is the butterfly/flower animation that's about the halfway point. I really dig the way the ended it too. A+

Milkshake Design

shake.com - Quality animations, a melange of styles and some high-profile clients make this reel a good fix when you hit a creative block. Lloyd Alverez has one of the more modest sites I've seen in a while, but it really puts the focus on his outstanding reel.

My milkshake brings all the boys to the yard....
