Queens Jubilee Concert Visuals

So, tonight you’ll be able to see the fruits of our labour at the Queen’s Jubilee Concert. We’ve been working like demons on animated visuals which will be projected onto Buckingham Palace during the performances. We’ve had a sneak peek at rehearsals and it looks spectacular. Our visuals are for two songs by Madness so keep your eyes peeled. They were commissioned by Sam Pattinson at Treatment Studios who organised all the visuals on the palace and who pulled everything together. Madness will be on at roughly 9.45. You can see more about the concert here

Inside

Here’s Rok Predin’s latest short film project. The film initially suggests a child’s ‘lift the flap’ book but it quickly subverts this familiar visual narrative and confounds the viewer’s anticipations. As Rok says the visual journey “lets the viewer ponder the traditional relationship between internal and external space while being a very visually pleasing film ”. The use of a beautiful pared down palette reinforces the viewer’s engagement with the short creating a mesmerising and incredibly engaging film. The spooky soundtrack was created by Ivan Arnold who Rok previously collaborated with on the award winning ‘Winter Poem’. “Inside” was created using Cinema 4D and composited using After Effects. It was conceived, animated, composited and directed by Rok Predin.

Meet Zagi

Meet Zagi the squirrel, our favourite purchase from the flea market on our weekend trip to Ljubljana in Slovenia. His goofy smile made us laugh all weekend.

Rapper’s delight

Our director Rok Predin is a brilliant musician, he can play gypsy-swing guitar like a dream. However today you’ll be able to hear him showing off a previously undiscovered talent for gangsta-rap in this evening’s episode of Dirk Gently on BBC4 at 9.00 p.m. Our neighbour Daniel Pemberton does the music for this show and he needed some Serbian hip-hop to be playing in the background of a scene involving some shady Serbs, so he came around and got Rok to scream some Serbian obscenities over a kickin’ beat. Rok says that he is saying VERY rude things.

Elton John | Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

We’ve been working  on this project all summer and it’s finally finished. Rok directed this sequence for Elton John’s new Las Vegas show ‘The Million Dollar Piano’ for the song Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. This is projected behind Elton John as he performs at the spectacular Caesars Palace.  This project was commissioned by Sam Pattinson at The Third Company and we got to work closely with art director Tony King who has worked with Elton for years and who has a wealth of knowledge about his career helping to make this piece a real historical record of his achievements.
