ICL – Extended Version

ICL flipped like a burger at McDonald’s when they saw our short movie, and immediately ordered an extended version.

Just remade the logo for 900m Productions as we updated our website and style.
Got some nice footage from this winter’s first real down-pour out here in the Negev Desert. When it rains… it floods!!
Edited by Nadav Ben Israel.
A corporate image movie we (900m Productions) did for ICL.
Here’s a little animation I worked on with Nadav Ben Israel, the video scientist of 900m Productions. A video we did for the Vision 04 project. Basically, a bunch of video artists all used the same footage, all filmed inside the Tel Aviv apartment of this old gay belly dancer, and did their own twist on it. We rolled up and went far out. Nadav got a hold of the blue prints of the dancer’s apartment and I rebuilt it in 3D and then Nadav sat next to me and directed the camera walk through. Each footage that sits on the walls is taken for its respective place in the apartment. Nadav’s idea was to turn this into a video game looking piece, and the sub is that all wars starts at home. While this gay belly dancer is happily dancing away in is little home, the war is raging outside.
Check it out in HD though.
Been watching the news lately. All the breaking news bulletins about all the disasters… seems there ain’t nothing but BROKEN NEWS any more…
This little clip is done by taking fullscreen snapshots in Google Maps Street View (i found a car and followed it down the streets of New York), and throwing them all into After Effects and add a little warp between the frames. A funky way of stop motion blending.
Potential Disclaimer/Acclaimer:
I don’t know if it’s legal to hit the FNCT button+Print Screen in Windows Vista while looking at Google Maps Street View in full screen and then hitting CTRL+V in Adobe Photoshop and importing it all as an image sequence into Adobe After Effects and applying Timewarp effect for the layer of the imported footage, adding some TrapCode Shine, Cartoon filter and exporting it as a .mov Apple Macintosh file and uploading it to Google YouTube, with the music/soundtrack i did myself in Propellerheads Reason. But if it is, then, here it is!!!
Yalla! Sulcha! Hummus anyone?!
and if it’s not, then we have to ask ourselves; why not?
Thanks to the people at Google and its ilk, who made you find this, who let you read what i just wrote… trip out ey! Go Google!
Cheers,

A quick logo for 900 Meters Productions in Mitzpe Ramon, Israel.
The ibex was rigged and animated in Maya, and swooshing in and out and other animations was all done in After Effects.
This is not the final version (still have to upload that to youtube)
A study in shining… no 3D here, just After Effects and 15+ layers of masked vector solids + ramps…
plugins: fractal noise, particular and shine, and cc sphere for the text.
A quick and dirty mockup for Microsoft’s ThinkNext event in Israel.
Tweaking the Particular plugin in After Effects to its max…
Never mind the animations…
this is just a short AFX clip to study the properties of fractal noise with displacement maps for water refracted reflections.
Traffic in Tel Aviv.
A video/soundtrack i did back in 2004, when i was still exploring the back streets of Tel Aviv.
A study of shadow projections in After Effects. The fence, hand and logo text are all keyed layers placed way behind the camera and in front of a light source, and then projected onto the stage, which holds a still image of a wall, with particles of smoke and dust catching a hard light. Sound effects were sampled from my squeaky front door and other objects laying around and edited and twisted in Cubase.

YES YES YES!!!!
Finally, i quit my job at CODEMCODE.com! Even though i had a blast working there in the studio, i just couldn’t take the whole 9-5 thing anymore. i was stupid enough to give it one more chance this last summer, but I should’ve known better. i’m just not the office type of guy.
Today i’m starting up my freelancing career again, but this time for real. Starting up under a new umbrella label called DREAMYARD. Soon there’ll be a site at dreamyard.biz (if I’ll have the time, hehe). Under this new company i’m putting up everything i’m doing as a graphic/video artist under my tag name LAIDLOW and also my musical stuff, under my old nickname ROBIYH (talk about being schizophrenic, but…).
…IT’S SO GOOD TO BE FREE!!!
Just updated my own music page at www.myspace.com/robiyh
My mom just gave birth to a funny looking creature, namely, me!
Thanks mom!!
