Challenges We Overcome
The VCD team faced a few key challenges while working on this complicated medical based video project:
The VCD had to perform additional research before embarking on this project to supplement their knowledge level of certain medical terminologies.
Modeling cells proved to be particularly difficult due to the accuracy required for something of this scientific nature.
All modeling had to be in line with the script, which demanded careful coordination.
VCD's Customized Approach to the Project
VCD wanted to ensure that this video project could be completed to the highest quality standards while intelligently incorporating the client's script. Therefore a customized approach was developed:
VCD initiated a preliminary discussion with the client to go over the project details and ensure that all parties fully understood the requirements from both ends.
The client provided input in the form of a technical script detailing medical cell structures.
The VCD team prepared meticulous sketches based on the initial script in preparation for a 10 second paid trial.
The sketches were delivered to the client for approval, and after receiving feedback, the VCD team made some minor modifications.
The models of the cells were then created using 3ds Max, all based on the storyboard sketches to stay in line with the client's script.
VCD then rendered the models as a full-length video, completing the final animation components utilizing Adobe After Effects and Maya Dynamics.
The client provided the required voice-overs, and VCD began the syncing process to align the voice-over with the precise moments in the video timeline, creating a seamless video flow.
The final output was rendered, and the completed 90-second video was delivered to the client on time.
