Tank – Short film by Stu Maschwitz

Video Leave a comment

Introducing Tank, a new short film from Red Giant’s Chief Creative Officer, Stu Maschwitz. In a visual homage to vector arcade games of the 80’s (like Battlezone and Star Wars), Tank tells the story of a team of pilots that must take on a weapon of mass destruction in a battle to save their world. Putting aside current 3D modeling techniques, Stu looked to the past and built the world of Tank entirely in Adobe After Effects, using math, code, and hundreds of hours of painstaking animation work.

Pogledi zatvorenih očiju | Glances of Closed Eyes – short movie

Leave a comment

The film „Glances of Closed Eyes“ shows cases the sense of hearing as an important factor in interacting and communicating in society today. The focus is on blind and visually impaired people who introduce us to their way of life through the help of sound and how sound helps them in their daily lives. It describes their emotions and how they differ from people with sight. „I fell in love at first sound“ (quote taken from interview). How much we listen to each other and what impact it has on our lives and emotions? By just listening can we be frightened, get angry or even fall in love?
