TIME TO GO DEEPER

Animated Festival Closing Show

WHO

An animated feature for Boomtown.

WHAT

We were tasked with creating a conceptual animation to be shown during the closing moments of the Boomtown Festival 2023.

‘Time To Go Deeper’ would follow a soul struggling with their past, their darkness, and their shadows. The 2 characters would battle out their differences, until realising they are ultimately one, and would embrace what separates them.

We acted out each scene in person to form a solid storyboard and to determine the pace of the film. With the help of Bath College’s Camera department, we then used a motion capture studio with choreographed performers acting out each scene which provided us with perfectly timed, animated 3D models within our Cinema 4D project.

These models were used within Houdini & C4D to drive particle systems which formed the sand & energy seen in the film.
