Studio Mitchell

Building with Frames (BWF) commissioned Studio Mitchell to create a 3D animated example of their beautifully designed and built living spaces being delivered on-site. This method of off-site construction is very quick and cost effective. The 25 second animation was used for social media advertising, website content and exhibition display.

Our brief was pretty open, create a non gender 3D character design that captures health and safety. One which can be used to convey serious messages in an appealing and engaging manner. After researching and designing a variety of characters the cone character was chosen and developed further.  The safety cone is a simple but very adaptable vehicle for delivering Health and Safety messages in print, web/ digital and in video. The character is fully rigged, a term which means we can pose it in any way we wish to create any health and safety situation.

The finished CGI 3 character design was released in a short introductory animation. Where the character walks in and reveals information boards with key UNIPA messages. This sequence gives a respectful nod to the famous Bob Dylan video “Don’t Look Back” our UNIPA character discards the cards with a little humour, launching them behind and they fly off screen.

Take a look at the other 3D Characters Studio Mitchell have created here. Our characters are great vehicles for promoting your brand awareness. One of the challenging aspects of a successful brand comes down to its ability to communicate with its audience in an successful way. But just how could you expect (a brand) to communicate with a human being (audience) when there is no tangible means of communication to hand?

Companies such as Churchill Insurance and Duracell are among those who know how to utilise the power of a corporate character and continue to captivate their customers and grow loyalty.

3D Character Design. Next Step . . .

So if you are considering a 3D Character contact us to discuss the possibilities. We will discuss –

• Visual storytelling: a mascot should describe a brand story visually whether its through colors, shape, gesture or any other feature.
• Brand Personality: Ultimately, a 3D character design creates a long-term relationship with the customer, so it should embody some of the clients’ characteristics.
• Character Psychology: At its core, a mascot is like a brand ambassador, so it should possess all the qualities that brands and the target audience aim for. 

Here we have created a desert island with the iconic message in a bottle. This animation was achieved by careful use of fluid dynamics.

3D animation gives you the freedom to realise ideas which might well be impossible to normally achieve within your film  / marketing budget. Studio Mitchell’s clients benefit from our research and development and we are always interested in a new challenge. If you have a concept you’d like to discuss, contact us!

Exploring the natural phenomenon of murmerisation here we have created flocking birds which group together in flight to make parametric shapes, a cube and a taurus (ring). This was achieved by the use of 3D particles.

This 7 second animation was created as a result of a client enquiry to create the shape of an object completely out of wire. Developing this concept further here we surface trace over a watering can replacing the wire with a vine growing organically in the style of time lapse footage. This technique could also be applied to creating veins on a body. The leaves can be substituted with other 3D objects.

3D animation gives you the freedom to realise your ideas and many of our clients are surprised when it’s also within their budget to do such. If you have a concept you’d like to discuss, contact us!

In this demo reel, you’ll find great 3D graphics work created by leading UK companies including Studio Mitchell. The animation is all made with the 3D software Cinema 4D.

The 50 second animation for Harris Brushes produced by Studio Mitchell was featured in this showreel. It’s our 3rd year and we are delighted Maxon continue see our work as some of the best.

The Harris Brush project was a slick futuristic presentation of the well known brands new ‘Blade’ brush.

This 50 second CGI animation short demonstrates just how flexible 3D animation can be over traditional film footage methods. This is a linear animation there are no editing cuts. The post production elements in the animation, the HUD and copy are added in After Effects.

Concepts such as this would probably be difficult and certainly very costly to produce on film. 3D animation in contrast provides the freedom to realise your ideas. The Client is often surprised when this is all within their budget to achieve this.

In this demo reel, you’ll find great 3D motion graphics work created by leading UK companies including Studio Mitchell. This finely crafted work is made using the 3D animation software Cinema 4D.

This years animation project for Tannoy is featured on the Maxon C4D Motion Reel. A 1min 15 second complexed animation demonstrates the full functionality of the Tannoy AMS speaker system. Tannoy presented the product around the globe pre production, pre-launch.

The animation is a linear production requiring no editing. The footage can be seen here and the whole film including the Studio Mitchell animation here.

The Maxon 2016 demo reel is a celebrations of  leading UK companies 3D animation. These works include  Studio Mitchell’s . Each animation was created with Maxons 3D software package Cinema 4D a versatile professional 3D visualisation and animation package

Studio Mitchell’s 3D animation of a motor yacht features in this years prestigious C4D showreel. This project works with natural elements, wind and water. The sea motion as the boat passes over the surface. creating a bow wave and wake foam. The wind gently blows a 3D cloth red ensign. Nothing is real in this animation but all the items together create a piece of footage that questions that?
