Exploring the intersection between art and nature, between material, light and color. A 40 seconds film that showcases 4 realistic yet abstract CG landscapes, each of them in a relationship with a kinetic transparent sculpture.
As a Creative Animation firm we are naturally driven by the need to offer solutions to communication problems. Sometimes we must step away from client work and let ourselves play and gather. This is what we did. We navigated towards uncertainty by embracing a short but intensive creative journey.
The initial goal of this R&D driven project was to explore landscape design, elegancy and a more cinematographic language. The outcomes of the design process dictated the animation style and so the final edit which was finally reenforced by an exquisite sound design.
It is crucial for Clim to create self-initiated work and he does so very often. This time, no explicit intention other than exploring an audiovisual language built on a mood based on subtlety, delicacy, even intimacy. The result reminds us to the classic aspect of a blueprint-photography language mixed with the modernity of the landscape CG NFT-like trend.
We did find lots of answers that will stay forever on our drives awaiting to be applied on future client work. We learned so much about the design process, its production, pipeline and technical requirements as well as finding a beautiful sweet spot between reality and graphicness.
