The Santa Clauses

CONCEPT + DESIGN + ANIMATION

The Santa Clauses

Brief

I had the good fortune to work with the fine feathered friends over at Plucky on the main title/logo reveal for the Disney+ Series The Santa Clauses.

Client : Pixel Preacher/Disney+
Director : Jason Winer
Creative Director : David Clayton
Creative Producer : Jeffrey Marks

SOLUTION

The core idea behind this quick main title/logo reveal came from the orb… Where we cyle through a few key vignettes in this colorful and sparkly world before pulling out to reveal our Christmas snow globe.

Technically Speaking

The piece combines live-action, 3D animation, and 2D compositing. Created in Cinema 4D, rendered in Redshift, composited in After Effects, and edited in Premiere.

Special thanks to Fuse FX for the reindeer asset and animation. And a very special thanks to Tom Coben for the Santa Clause character animation.
