3D Motion Design

Octo

We created a 3D motion design animation showcasing the essence of the new Bulgari Octo watch through abstract architectural designs.

A poetic odyssey through abstract 3D architectural designs

We Make Something imagined an "Out of the round" campaign for the Bulgari Octo watch. We helped them create a full 3D animation showcasing abstract architectural designs without any rounded shapes.

We started by designing various abstract and architectural 3D scenes, playing with simple shapes like cubes, rectangles and triangles. Even if we could only use straight lines, we ended up with a great variety of environments. We used different lighting techniques, playing with the breakthroughs of lights and shadows to obtain beautiful contrasts.

The composition of the music was an important part of the project, and was the result of many back and forths between the composer and our director, to obtain a perfect interaction between the animations and the sound.

3D Modeling

We create custom 3D modeling for each project. From scratch or based on provided files,we can create any object.

Cinema 4D

3D Animations

We can animate anything in 3D to give life to our projects : objects, cameras, characters, particles, lights, etc..

Cinema 4D

Shading

We created tailor-made textures and materials, using the latest Physically Based Rendering shaders techniques.

Arnold Renderer

Rendering

We rendered this project on the fastest render farm, using hundred of servers to deliver in time.

Ranch Computing

Compositing

Using 32bpc multi-layer OpenEXR workflow, After Effects allowed us to composite our 3D passes and add creative effects.
