Transforming videos Part 1

We decided that seeing as this shot is only 30 seconds long our best research tool would be youtube to see if other people have attempted to achieve anything similar to what we want to create. At the moment we are looking at having the trainer transform like an old school transformer toy. The first video we came across was this one for Orange it was meant as a viral video to promote their new phone release. The beginning part of the video is a perfect example of some very good compositing. The spaceship fits into the scene incredibly well the shadow is at just the right density to make it believeable and the texturing on the model itself means that it doesn’t stand out in the scene too much. The transforming at the end is what we are most interested at the time though, the animation is very smooth and the whole transformation flows. In terms of the actual animation it seems very achievable and something that as a group I’m sure we have the skills to complete. What i think really adds to the whole video though are the sound effects they are perfectly timed with the movements making the scene more believable. We definitely have to keep sound effects in mind when creating our own shot.
