Reach: "Conveyor"

This is one of two spots produced by Hatch Studios Ltd. for Reach. Appropriately named “Conveyor”, it features a character being able to brush her teeth by sliding her teeth within her mouth.

Some interesting notes about this project were that we created the characters in a very stylized caricature form yet rendered them in a method which makes them appear very ‘tangible’. The oversized heads in proportion to the bodies further emphasize this as does the realistic lighting setup. In addition, ensuring that the teeth moving within the mouth didn’t come off as looking creepy was a challenge in itself.

Intern

Can I intern? I’ll leave my family, kids, and pay you :grin:

ha ha - thanks for the kind compliments - as always. The Hatch team did a nice job on this one.

DOF was post (as usual). Still waiting for raytraced DOF to become ‘rendertime-friendly’. In the meantime, we’re continuing our DOF PRO progress with the forthcoming v4.0. :wink:
