WOMBOT is a machine whose primary objective is to eat roots and dig burrows- but whose even MORE primary objective is to make whimsical short-form animated content for humans.
Wombot operates out of Footscray and is currently piloted by Zoë Medcraft and Felix Colgrave, who, despite the innovation of the robot, will likely do most of the animating manually.
ODETARI VISUALIZERS
A series of animated visualizers created for ODETARI, doing our own spin on the 2000s video game aesthetic of his other promotional material. Each piece simulates a different game level, using a mix of 2D and 3D animation techniques. Both ‘Heavy Love’ videos have surpassed 1 million veiws on YouTube.
BRAINS OUT
The first visualizer we designed was for Odetari’s single “Brains Out.” It features a series of original looping animations - each crafted to stand alone as individual social media assets.
The final piece combines around three unique loops, edited together with programmed FX animation.
HEAVY LOVE (Lyric Video)
For the HEAVY LOVE lyric video, the background was modeled around a 3D cylinder, to create an infinite looping environment. A spin on the obligatory “chase” level, from 3D platformers like Crash Bandicoot.
HEAVY LOVE (Visualizer)
A 15-second loop styled after a game character creation screen, with items based on Odetari’s own wardrobe. Designed to fit multiple layouts, the animation takes place in an alien-like game UI for the widescreen version, or plays like a mobile game in vertical.
