Eleiko - What's in your bar?

Animation created for Eleiko to showcase all the internal parts of their bars and to create awareness of their silent platforms.
Eleiko provided me with a KeyShot file containing all the models and basic materials. From there I did a bunch of grouping, animation, material detailing and lighting.

The animation is one coherent timeline, switching between a full view and close-up camera.

Dust, text and basic adjustments added with After Effects.

Eleiko created the sound for the animation based on an early draft of the animation and from there I carefully synced the movements of the parts to the sounds.

Cheers,

For a second I thought this was an extended double-bladed lightsaber...

Really nice job, Esben!
The reassembly sequence of the bar end is genius.

And.... we each get a personalized thank you rather than a blanket statement for all. Talent, style and class. Esben, you are a giant among men!

Lol, thanks. I can say that it's far from every time I take the time to do it personally though. I'm often guilty of a 'thank you all!'. No giant here. Just a regular person

Wouldn't expect a personalized thank you every time. Just having some fun.

You are however, a giant among us KeyShooters! I know I'm not the only one feels that way.

you are a great keyshoter. by the way, does the smoke effect have a name in AE?

Thank you! The smoke/dust is two pieces of stock footage from https://www.videocopilot.net/products/action2/ - that has been masked and layered on top of the animation.

Esben amazing, great. Love the dust...is that AE ? I can not believe I have the Adobe membership and never even try to use it...

Are you planning any tutorial combining KS + AE ? ? ? ? ??

Yup, actually that is the exact topic for the next course I want to do. Haven't planned much yet, though.
If you have any specific wishes for that course, please let me know

So, so nice! As others has already firmly pointed out; Nothing less to be expected! Pure class, both visually and audibly!
