Promotional video

Brief Description

Develop a fully animated 3D leopard as the main symbol of a promo video.

Brief Description

The task was to create a photorealistic and dynamic leopard, which was to be the centerpiece of a promotional video for the grand opening of a new hockey stadium. Our team was responsible for every aspect of the leopard’s creation, including modeling, animation, shading, and final rendering. This required not only high-quality character design but also sophisticated particle and water effects, as the leopard had to interact seamlessly with the environment.

Solution

Our team of animators, 3D modelers, and shading specialists collaborated to create a highly realistic leopard from scratch. The process involved:

Modeling:

Building a detailed and anatomically accurate 3D model of the leopard.

Shading:

Applying advanced texturing techniques to create a believable skin, fur, and lighting interactions.

Animation

Crafting smooth and lifelike movements for the leopard as it emerged dramatically from ice, symbolizing power and energy.

Special Effects:

Adding particle effects for ice shattering and water movement as the leopard breaks through, enhancing the visual impact.

Result

The final video delivered a visually stunning and memorable opening sequence for the stadium, with the leopard standing out as a symbol of strength and speed. The flawless execution of animation and visual effects helped generate excitement around the new hockey venue, perfectly capturing the intensity of the sport. The promo was highly successful and well-received by the audience.
