Marino: Director. Pink Floyd "Eclipse" Dark Side of the Moon 50th Anniversary Animation Competition
The concept I had for this project was unique and I did not want to be shackled to any one package but be able to us ALL of the tools at my disposal, in addition to artists I have worked with from throughout my career (--no matter where they were employed currently or located geographically) letting them use whatever software they wanted to create my vision.
Working fully remotely I assembled a team of 12 artists from around globe. I broke my treatment into one flowing move with seamless break points that flow smoothly from one visual chapter to the next. While all have a consistent look, the tools in the toolbox used were as varied as possible to achieve my vision.
The visual pastiche of software consisted of the following:
3dsMax
After Effects
Blender
Davinci Resolve Studio
Houdini
Nuke
Photoshop
Premiere
Unreal Engine
Nuke
Maya
Zbrush
I can break down the software into what was used in each specific shot but didn’t want to inundate anyone at this point with info that may be superfluous, and not warranted.
