Promotional Video for Kaiser Permanente

admin — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 02:00:21 +0000

Our second contract with McClain Marketing gets completed successfully, on time and within budget. McClain came to Becker Studio for producing a video for creating interest in a conference that Kaiser Permanente was attending. Kaiser presented several levels of ideas and finalized on creating a video that had several video clips, images, photos and text to create interest for the conference. Becker Studio took the script and resources and built a nicely polished piece incorporating all of the client’s desired motion and some of Becker’s own special touches. Becker Studio also provided several options for background music from which the client chose.

This project included sound editing and timing in Adobe Soundbooth and video editing in Adobe After Effects.

After several minor adjustments, the final product was delivered to very happy clients. We enjoyed learning some new techniques and workflow strategies in After Effects. We look forward to our next video project.

Library of 30 Flash Animations

admin — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 01:43:43 +0000

Becker Studio has recently completed 30 Flash animations to accompany a medical textbook for LWW (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins). One of our trusted clients, VPG commissioned the animations to Becker Studio based on previous work that we had done together in the same genre. The project kicked off in early November 2009 and we started receiving scripts from the originating client and subject matter expert late January 2010. We received the scripts in batches of about 4 animations. We then held online meetings with the client, subject matter expert, project manager (VPG) and designer/animator (Chris Becker). While sharing the designer’s screen, everyone was able to see the script and descriptions turn into imagery, layouts and motion descriptions. This workflow enabled the subject matter expert to direct the method of displaying the material accurately and we were able to quickly compose the screens and define what animation was necessary. While most of the artwork was provided by the textbook artwork, all of it had to be edited to work in Flash and much had to be originated because the textbook didn’t show everything that was written in the scripts.

In addition to the animation, illustration and graphic design work, Becker Studio originated the user interface design and framework in which the animations were displayed.

As always, we enjoyed working with VPG on this project and the new client and subject matter expert. We look forward to our next endeavor.

This was an enjoyable project that went pretty quickly. After we received the initial job description, we created several options using layers in Photoshop. We were then able to quickly work over some details while sharing our screen with the client. The client enthusiastically received the new design and went off to brighter and greener days with their new logo.
