Kraft - "Geyser", Richard Rosenman (3D)

[Goro]

haha awesome guys! Great characters! Love the designs.
Liked the animation as well. The only thing that bothered me a bit are the colors
I would have done it much more saturated. Other than that, super neat work!

Great work! The animation is really well done, especially in the opening shot...great timing between the guy turning the minutes on the sign, the arrival of the bus, and the kids climbing off... :thumbsup:

[wesa]

Great stuff! Funny characters. Like there legs and arms! Are they thin only for style or is it a little bit to save time?
And I must say that I like your color setting. Cartoon style animation usually have lots of colors and high saturation. It's nice to see some change. I like it when it's less colors and low saturation. Maybe just one color has high saturation. Like your yellow.
Cool and funny stuff!

Gotta agree on the color choices too. I think it's an interesting contrast to many animations that are so overly-saturated, or at least with common color schemes. Plus, the yellow tone goes right along with what the spot is advertising, macarroni and CHEESE!

yeah! i wish we would have such stylish commercials in german-tv! respect! great style and design BUT there is one continuity-mistake. when the children come out of the bus the girl doesn't wear a coat, but in the next shot ... never mind ... i'm a nitpicker ;)

cheers frank

[ivanisavich]

That's wicked to see KD get up on the front page!

My favourite part of the whole spot was when Kraft sent us 2304 BOXES OF KRAFT DINNER!!! You couldn't even get in or out of the front door! Good times!

[wpanterka]

[FRENZIEDmind]

Nice work! Love the designing of everything (environment, school bus, characters...). That jumpy kid with the glasses is funny.

[TylerFigueira]

The sound really added so much to it, really makes everything 'pop' much more it's really amazing to see it finished. I'm still trying to get through my crate of KD boxes they sent us, lol. Thanks so much for the opportunity Rich, it was a blast!

[kamalpahuja]

wht else can u expect from RICHARD ...........simply superb........... amazing characters, cute , funny as always,

nice story telling

all n all great stuff, congrats

[Bezerker75]

Really great spot!! Just curious, how much does a production that involved go for? With that many characters, and cloth, fluid and particle dynamics. I guess enough to keep 8 core people employed for at least 6 weeks...haha....but seriously, on a project of that size it must have a hardy price tag, no doubt well deserved I am sure!! Any insight for procuction costs on something like this would be cool to see.

[arizaga]

Fantastic animation I love it, plenty of emotion and art :)

[Zethriel]

The expressions of these characters work really well and give them a lot of personality.
I think you could improve the other aspects but already in this way it's well done and funny.

[ENL]

Awesome Work!. The animation and timing were flawless.

[txd1985]

Good 5*****

[thedoc]

as usual, your images are impressive. I love the unique style... what on earth enspired that? That's another good one under you belt, 4 stars from me. If ever you are to do another short... make it look like this.

Good work on the animation. However, I must admit that I am a little disturbed by some of the elements in the scene - particularly the character design and the coloration. The characters have a great facial design, but are suggestively insect-like below the neck. The pack of four, poncho-wearing youngsters are made even creepier by their suspicious behavior and cloaked appearance. They're hiding much more than Kraft products under those ponchos. ... Someone get Fox Mulder on the case!
Also, for a kid-friendly advertisement, this spot has a rather drab feeling about it. The color scheme is too restricted and desaturated. It feels like it's about to rain (and I don't mean rain cheesy noodles). Where's the sun? Where's the warmth? Where's the energy in the scene?
Seeing youngsters in ponchos on a drab afternoon makes me want to change the channel. This is not a good thing. Bring out the sun. Liven up the scene. Get some color and activity in there! Seeing youngsters in ponchos on a bright, sunny day makes me curious about what they're up to. I won't turn away until I know.

[bRuDe]

Turned out fantastic Rich. Was a real pleasure to work with you and the rest of the crew on it.

That's a very cute animation!
I love the pacing of the animation....how each shot is short and fast...The lighting and rendering are also very sophisticated....I personally would like to know how you lit the shots because I'm working on my short animation which will have similar kind of lighting and rendering as well....:-)

Also does anyone know where I can find a good lighting and rendering tutorial?
