Carving Steel with Nikken!

Posted: 08/08/2011

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.”

We are very excited about a project we’ve been asked to get involved in that will use Augmented Reality to mix the real world and the computer generated world together. Augmented reality is way of generating real time movement of computer generated imagery within the real world, therefore allowing users to interact live with 3D objects that react in real time to a users movements or actions. Take a look at this video to see an example:

A Big Weekend with Nickelodeon!

Posted: 26/10/2010

Pixel DNA has created the brand & title sequence for Nickelodeon’s new weekend show ‘Jamie & Anna’s BIG Weekend’.

The title sequence is combination of live action footage of the shows presenters, combined with Motion Graphics, which result in a fast paced journey where we follow the presenters making their way across a construction site, dodging slime and other falling obstacles!
