IN PARTNERSHIP WITH Dudnyk, A Member of Fishawack Health

 

We teamed up with Dudnyk to create artwork illustrating an HAE attack and the looming feeling that goes along with it. We started by shooting the model in studio and scouting several parks for the background plates. One of our artists was always shooting photos for 3D textures when he traveled around the world, so we went into his photo library for the cobblestone texture. We then started building the swelling pathway in 3D and built it in a way to animate it for future use. The ominous feeling that has made this ad so successful came later in compositing where we were able to take the pieces we created and combine them into the artwork that you see now.

The first piece of artwork set in the park was created for the European market. For the second piece, we utilized the same concept, but for the North American market, setting the HAE attack in a home environment.
