Wallace & Gromit has been nominated for an Emmy!
Back in 2018, we teamed up with studio friends The Line Animation to create an experimental new rendering pipeline, with the aim of appearing entirely hand drawn. The result of this pipeline which was debuted in a ridiculously over the top Gundam-style animation test. Â Sharp, motion accurate shadows and 2D specific cameras were key to achieving the iconic look.
This technique went on to be scaled up into production for various other projects, including the Blizzard cinematic MechaStorm – Heroes of the Storm. Utilising creative rigging solutions and a novel rendering workflow allowed us to deliver complex “anime style” mechas in fluid motion that would otherwise have been cost prohibitive.
