Singapore: Brightened up with Happy Life

Liquid Animation transformed Singapore in to a vibrant 3D world in its latest project for Telco M1 called “A Happy Life”.

The commercial, directed by Liquid’s Animation’s Mike Viner and Sorin Oancea for Y&R Singapore, was focused on developing a playful and quirky design style  based on dynamic, twisted and bold shapes and draped with highly detailed textures and lighting. An overall soft feel treatment was added for more depth and a natural appeal to this unique world.

Employing a flexible pipeline and work-flow that lent itself to the challenges of a large scale, evolving concept, Liquid mobilised our team of talented artists to design and craft a visually rich sequence that tells an engaging story.

Liquid Does Live Action: For Isuzu Ute Australia

In this tongue in cheek TV commercial for Australia, secret agents run through the woods in a scene reminiscent of the X-Files towards a mysterious figure in the woods…. First contact? Or some other kind of contact entirely….

When our sister company Liquid Interactive won the Isuzu account last year and began planning for the website launch of the All New D-Max, little did we know where it would lead us.

Liquid Animation coordinated this full live action shoot and got right out of our comfort zone in the office and into the woods in the dead of night. Final editing and visual effects brought us back indoors where we were much more comfortable and less afraid of stepping on a snake.

See the surprising and very funny result here on Isuzu UTE Australia’s site. (Website created by Liquid Interactive.)

Liquid Animation: To New York and Beyond!

In January the Courier Mail ran this article on Liquid.

From small beginnings 12 years ago, the company has come so far in such a short space of time. With regular work for many of Hollywood’s major children’s entertainment companies and a solid client base in Australia and the Asian region, Liquid Animation also boasts a strong slate of original IP properties that it is taking to the world.

As well as garnering attention from media agencies domestically, our Managing Director Steve Viner made sure the top children’s entertainers worldwide know about Liquid as he attends the KidScreen summit in New York recently. The arguably biggest event in children’s entertainment for the year is attended by major production and broadcasting companies from around the world and it has been a major market for Liquid to pitch original ideas for the past number of years. Important enough to brave to cold of New York for while the rest of us were comfortable in summer Down Under!
