Getting the most out of three seconds…
You might remember the Frederator Studios production tag we’re making for Fred. The first version was done before we got any input from Fred. After talking it through and watching it over and over, it’s clear that the robot doesn’t read as well as it could (it’s tiny in the large frame), and the big green “F” on the robot’s chest is hard to read at best.
For inspiration as to how you could handle such a task, we had to look no further than the 1950’s:
The production tag is much shorter than this intro piece, so we’ll have to have a lot happening fast. Keep watching to see what we come up with.

Hey Floyd, I thought the last animation in that youtube vid of your was the final one.

That was the first version. We were on a roll, and the piece is so short, we went ahead and rendered it. It’s not the final final until it’s approved.

Looks good. I like the robot a lot. But I think the Letters are to squishy for the sound. Just something to think about.

Looking good, I hope we’ll see the new production tag gracing Frederator Studios fare pretty soon!
