Trailer Project: Vertigo

Trailer Project: Vertigo from Atli Hafsteinsson on Vimeo.

A project made in collaboration between our two classes.

3 CGAs got a classic movie to reinvent artistically. They did all character designs, modelling, rigging etcetera, and then we did all the animation in two weeks under their direction, with Alex Williams overseeing the production. It was a great experience and I think the end result looks great, as do the other trailers.

The CG artists in charge:
Dennis Jensen
Stinna Liholm
Søren Falske

The Animators:
Christoffer Andersen
Josefine Hannibal
Aimall Sharifi
