90 Days of Change
Our brief was to create a visually driven campaign with a broad palette of mixed-media styles. Happily we worked across live-action, stock footage, animation, motion graphics, CGI, model making, claymation and even puppetry. Our executions were fearless and fast. Frequently, we challenged ourselves to be braver and create work that was different from anything else in the category.

Discovery Garden
This delightful campaign is for Woolworths ever popular Discovery Garden franchise. Our brief was to bring four illustrated insects off the pack and set them free in several idyllic garden locations shot by New Zealand based Director Melanie Bridge. Our animators modelled and rigged the characters using both 2D and 3D techniques then tracked them into each scene to lock them to the live-action camera.
RES provided detailed pre-production advice for the shoot which would include the clever addition of interactive layers for the hedge scene, giving the illusion that the bee actually sped through it and sent leaves flying in all directions. Crafting this special spot to perfection was a fun project for all the team.

Continental Nutrish Soup
At RES we love getting briefed on projects that are a little kooky and outside of our expected capabilities. Having worked directly with Unilever on a number of successful launch campaigns, we have built a body of work and trust and are often asked to take the shell of an idea and flesh it out into a well executed piece of communication.
Unilever approached RES to help them create an animated commercial for their new Nutrish Soup line from Continental. The client had a high level idea and we helped shape it and bring it to life.
Our Senior Designer Gabriel Souza, took to the task of creating the characters for this animation from rudimentary illustrations on the hero product packs, and then developed the client's story idea of a fun bootcamp workout led by a seriously sanguine chicken. The work was completed in four quick weeks using a traditional frame-by-frame hand drawn technique. Not quite as fast as it takes to make a cup of soup but a good result all the same!

Picked For Christmas
If Christmas is a time for a little magic, then perhaps this latest piece of CGI creature wizardry for the Woolworths Christmas campaign will make you want to believe. RES were invited to bid on creating a fully photo real Australian Mistletoe bird that would open this stunning TVC, and deliver freshly picked cherries to one of the farm hands in this filmic Christmas narrative.
Working tirelessly in Maya and Yeti, we crafted the superbly detailed CGI model with realistic feathers, providing a pre-viz for each shot as well as on-location VFX supervision to capture the scene lighting and camera data. We even sourced a taxidermied Mistletoe bird for the shoot day to capture the lighting effect on its luminous blue feathers!
Final composites came together in Nuke and Flame, allowing tweaks to the grade, and detailed integration of the bird into each scene, as well as many other sequences in this highly polished TVC. Take a look at 'The Making of' film below...

‘Fallen’ Prologue Sequence
Bringing to life the incredible etchings of Gustave Dore using cinema graphic technique Resolution won a competitive bid to produce this two-minute prologue for the recently released Scott Hicks Film ‘Fallen’. Rendered in 4K and set to an alluring narrative this is a project outside of the square we’re really proud of.

The Trade-chain Experiment
More like a mini doco than a content piece RES created this video about an innovative new app called Trade-chain for Commbank. To tell the complex story of trade in Australia we filmed in two states, edited, graded and animated to craft a filmic story that explains the power of Blockchain and Internet of Things in an accessible way. Take a look at the result.

Wake Up to Sleep
Director Tim Dyroff and a dedicated crew shot for 12 days around Australia from Sydney’s CBD in wind-down to the rugged corners of Tasmania and Western Australia to capture these stunning landscapes by night. Nothing was more important than seizing these nocturnal moments…not even sleep!
Working closely with the amazing team at AJF Partnership Melbourne, Resolution was able to craft this stunning brand campaign under one roof for Forty Winks seamlessly blending cinematography with CGI installations and camera tracked star plates. We also took on all the print photography and cleanups to unify the visual assets and style.

Anarchy
This amazing installation for Finch Director Alex Roberts involved building a virtual set for each window of a rundown house in Sydney's Darlinghurst. By wearing special glasses supplied on the night, the public could watch amusing scenarios through each window . We integrated the live-action plates with stunning VFX and clever perspectives to make them feel integrated and entertaining.

Let’s Talk About Sex
The script called for a helicopter to drop a massive condom onto the Washington Monument; definitely neither easy nor cheap! We knew this spot would work if it felt hand-held and naturalistic so we encouraged the guys to shoot it that way, and then handled all the complex tracking issues it created. The final product has a very authentic viral feel.

Unwins Install
Director Dylan McIntyre was commissioned to document the installation of an unique artwork onto a series of commercial terraces undergoing restoration in The Rocks, Sydney. Mike is an emerging artist with a unique artistic vision for perspective and illusion and Dylan has captured the discourse between Art and Life in Mike's story perfectly.

Stakeout
They say that truth should never get in the way of a good story, and so it is with this narrative driven 70’s cop duo taking on the bad guys for Riva coffee, for Director Nic Reynolds of Curious Films. Res took on the job of grading, design and title treatments as well as a batch of
VFX clean ups to give this web series its fitting retro look and finish.

History
We were asked by HTC to develop a brief history of the company and their remakable innovations using a warm palette of 2D and 3D techniques and artistry. We developed the concept of a 'notebook of ideas' brought to life with each new page and technological evolution in the company's unique story.

Kelly Bayer Rosmarin
One of five spots for Commbank that share the vision and capacity of Australia's largest retail bank using its leading managers as talent. We shot in studio and on location then intercut the material with simple and subtle graphic touches to add a branded look.
