Course Overview

Clim is as close to motion design royalty as they come. For years he’s released amazing work, both personal and professional. What’s so striking about this trend is how consistent it has been. Even back when most great works came from under the umbrella of a big studio, Clim was paving his own path and making independent work. It’s About Time is no exception. This beautiful 3D film is a perfect example of what makes Clim’s work so great: his excellent taste and sensibility married with his commitment to craft and creating beautiful personal projects.

Inspiration and design

In this video, we take a closer look at the inspiration for this piece. More specifically, how Fraser and the team decided to create this nostalgia-fueled and action-packed homage.

Complex character actions

Character animation is hard! Animating complex actions is even harder! In this video, we walk through the character rigs and look at how each of these performances were created.

Building the 2.5D world

This animation is essentially one long continuous shot with no cuts or transitions to hide the seams. In this video, we take a look at how Cub Studio went about creating this continuous 2.5D world.

Compositing and creating the 16-bit look

Working from reference is one thing, but. matching a deeply rooted piece of nostalgia is a totally different ball game. In this video, we examine how Cub Studio took on this 16-bit look.

Putting the cherry on top

Here we discuss what went into wrapping up this project, how it all came together, and any lessons they experienced along the way when created the world of Super Jonny.
