Here is my Circus Robot Elephant. It is still "Work In Progess", but this is how it looks so far :)

Exam Assignment

Laerke Kromann Exams-elephant 2013 from laerke kromann on Vimeo.

This is my exam assignment. We were given an animated elephant and the assignment was to texture and shade the elephant. Then we had to place it in a background and comp it to a final sequence.  

The sequence represents an overly controlled and half autistic man´s dream. He is caught up in time and the elephant is a symbol of his fear or state of mind. Enjoy!   

Everything Starts With An Idea

Roskilde Commercial from laerke kromann on Vimeo.

Roskilde Festival Commercial

We are done with our five weeks long commercial project and this time our school worked together with the Danish music festival: Roskilde Festival.

Roskilde Festival worked together with an organization called Change, and our job was to get Change´s messages out in a 20 sec long commercial.

In our commercial you see the “Orange feeling” which is the spirit of Roskilde Festival flying through activities at the festival and through time. The Orange feeling ends up in the mind of a hippie from the 70s and we see him get the idea for a music festival. Roskilde itself started out as just an idea which later became reality, and now Roskilde festival is one of the biggest music festivals in Europe.

I was production manager on the project, we had a lot of great fun and I worked together with a really amazing team consisting of: Christoffer Kramme, Nynne Mors, Maria Henriksen, Steffen Christensen, Simon Halberg and Benjamin Bach.

The music is made by students from Bath Spa University in England.   

Hope you will enjoy our little commercial! J

 Here is our character; Paw Tjuumbi the happy jungle fellow! He is far away from home and very lost here in Kongenhus hede. But, he is a true optimist and now he tries to find his way home.

The beautiful animation is done by Maria Henriksen, and I have done the CG work. It has now been almost 3 months where we have been working through the whole pipeline; design and concept, modeling and sculpting, rigging, texturing and shading, lighting, rendering and compositing. It has been fun and here is the final result. Our character integrated in a live action footages. Enjoy!
