3D animated backdrop at festival for Tony Mill's 'Watch It!'


Nexus Digital Media Limited Video Production Edinburgh Tony Mills

A 3D journey inside the colour bars of a TV set!

In the weeks running up to this years fringe festival we worked closely with performance artist and choreographer Tony Mills on the tunnel sequence 3D backdrop used in the finale of his Dancebase show 'Watch It!'.

Despite the seeming simplicity of the animation style it was a fairly challeging project at times in terms of musical timing and interactivity.

We are looking forward to working with Tony again in the near future.

"Room 2 Manoeuvre dance and theatre company contracted the services of Nexus Digital Media LTD for the production of an 8 minute 3-D animation as part of a world premiere dance performance of "Watch iT!" at Dance Base, Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2009. As company director I worked closely with Peter to develop the animation sequence, exploring the concepts and elements that would contribute to the final sequence. Throughout this process I found Peter to be extremely accommodating of the requests I made and also provided a valuable creative perspective from his platform of technical expertise. The entire commission was completed within the timescale, with the overall financial expenditure being more than reasonable. I already have plans to work with Nexus in the future."

Access to a fantastic pool of talent

Working on a live broadcast show for many years has given us access to one of the best pools of talent in the country and we draw our crew from the kind of team who can operate well under pressure in a live environment.

We regularly work closely with specialised audio engineers, lighting technicians and camera crew to ensure you have the best possible team on hand for the job.

There's no point and shoot service, we work closely with the client and the venue in the run up to the event to ensure a slick production as well as in post when offline edits are required.

Anything that, by chance, we can't provide directly in-house ourselves we can easily source, taking the pressure off you to concentrate directly on event management details.
