Pixel along with studios from around the world were invited to create a Motion Response for Pause fest 2016. The brief for the project was simple; Respond to the festival’s theme “Discover Your Future Self”. This theme seemed to speak to something that we’d be discussing in the studio for a while. Creative legacy and creative inspiration.

We chose to explore the notion of an idea and it being part of a creative continuum, with each subsequent generation building upon the lessons learnt from the last. The project began with a two week script-writing bender. We followed this by creating finished design frames so that throughout the process we had a clear aesthetic reference point.

Most scenes were built in 2D, though in some cases we constructed 3D environments aimed to mimic Luke’s signature 2D aesthetic. The Characters were approached in the same way. Some were traditionally cell animated, others were completely 3D.

The Project was hugely successful winning “Best Motion Response of the Year” at the festival and being awarded a coveted Vimeo Staff Pick. It was turned around in eight weeks and was created from pre to post at Pixel.
