TOP THREE PROJECTS IN THE LAST 12 MONTHS
Jump
A 30 second spot created for Vietnam in which the CGI team was tasked with creating realistic vines going around the ceiling. A lot of effort was put in motion tracking shots and creating natural environmental lighting.
Show
The spot depicts realistic tattoos that follow the contours of bodies in motion. Optima made use of the Inferno’s extended bicubic layers to accurately map graphics onto different talents’ moving body parts.
Kinatay (2009)
Director Briliante Mendoza won the best director award at the 2009 Cannes Palm D’Or with his film Kinatay. The film was shot with a combination of film and digital cameras, colour-graded, on-lined and film recorded through Optima’s digital intermediate. The director’s style called for a realistic, in-the-scene mood and feel for the film, transporting the audience into a dark and deadly world, with a gripping storyline.
