We’ve been working on lots of cool projects with Nickelodeon this year, and this was a recent set of graphics required to accompany a promo for a new show. ‘Supah Ninjas’ is an American Comedy-Action series that premiered in January 2011 on Nickelodeon. The show follows three friends who become a team of Ninjas to fight crime and battle against evil, and features the oroginal Star Treck’s very own George Takei.

We were asked to take a number of clips from the show and create quick comic book style animations that matched each clip and were in the same style as the shows title sequence.

We were asked by Nikken to create a logo animation for them that reflected what they do. Nikken manufacture metal cutting tools that are used to create a wide variety of cool products including Apple iPhone & iMac, along with parts for Formula 1 racing cars and Passenger Jets. Our logo animation shows a block of metal being carved by a Nikken tool which results in a 3D embossed Nikken logo.

Rob Prior, Group Marketing Manager at Nikken says: “Working with Pixel DNA is extremely rewarding. Your ideas are carefully considered and enhancements and options offered to ensure you achieve your objectives. The finished animation is just what we needed as an introduction and a finale to videos of our products in action. We can also use it on presentations and at exhibitions to ensure we attract the attention of those who pass our stand. Many thanks for all your hard work and valuable input in to our project.”
