I’ve added a page which includes content we at 59 created for the London Games (including a rather nifty ‘behind the scenes’ video which goes some way in explaining our encompassing role).

Olympic Opening Ceremony Countdown -
Here’s the full 60sec (720 still) countdown we created at 59 Productions. Given free reign by Danny Boyle to do whatever it was initially intended to be screened on the stadium screens only, the first we knew it was to be broadcast was when we saw it go out live with the other 22million plus (it went out in various other countries, not all) viewers. A nice surprise after an arduous shoot in typical British weather conditions by the irrepressible Aneil Karia and Vanessa Whyte.

A really nice interview by the guys at Director’s Notes. Includes some hot tips on animation based chat up lines.
59 Productions - Olympic Page -
So from April to July I worked on the Opening ceremony of the Olympic Games for the amazing guys at 59 Productions. We handled many video/projection elements including the 60sec countdown and house projection in the ‘digital age’ section.
You can find out some info here, and watch out for the DVD!
