Bavaria spot wins awards

Posted in News by Joe in December 2011

The Bavaria Campaign continues to receive accolades and acclaim, with the Hugh Heffner spot winning a silver Epica, and a Bronze award at Eurobest.

Bavaria is the second biggest brewer in Holland, and impressively been family owned and operated for the last 284 years. Reflecting that wholesome feeling, Heffner (normally living the Mans Dream), seeks a moment away from the Mansions bouncy, cocktail world, and enjoys a beer with his buddies.

Working with our friends at Bonkers, we were embedded in the whole process, from on set supervising in Las Angeles, all the way thru 3D and Flame (yes, not everything in the playboy world is real…) to grading.

Nova Zembla - Stereoscopic Feature Effects

Posted in News by Joe in November 2011

Eyeworks asked Hectic to do some serious Stereoscopic effects and beautiful titles for their film Nova Zembla.

Nova Zembla is the first 3D film to come from the Dutch film industry. Director/producer Reinout Oerlemans (“Komt een vrouw bij de doctor”) has instinctively steered the creative process with a confident hand, enabling the team to excel in a wide range of challenges, from beautiful titles to a myriad of demanding individual shots.

The titles are truly a master artwork, transitioning the live action shots of the leading stars into an etched, canvas composition, inspired by Jan Luyken’s 16th Century engravings of Nova Zembla.

We were privileged to work on the opening sequence, a one minute epic piece, immersing the audience in a stereoscopic universe full of stars and wonder, drawing them deeper into the 3D.
