ANIMATION STYLES
World-class animators gather for the making of this anthology.
From the classic 2D animation to photo-real 3D, this series showed bone-grabbing art styles with very mesmerizing and darkly-compelling storylines.
The main animation styles used in this series include half-realistic, quasi-gamish, and traditional which all achieved in a hyper-realistic cinematic style.
Since some of the animation styles were built in those styles—Blur Studio, the studio who produced these different artistic styles, managed to expand it into a more complex and convincing process.
SUITS (Season 1, Episode 4)
This episode used a lot of hand-painted textures that is somewhat closer to 2D. They also used a non-photorealistic rendering in this episode. The team focused on the lighting and shadows for this episode for it stay consistent.
HELPING HAND (Season 1, Episode 11)
This episode was made possible through a motion capture in a soundstage. After those process that took hours, the team focused on the props to create the look of appearing zero in gravity.
THE WITNESS (Season 1, Episode 3)
This episode is probably one of the bests. This is made through graphic but realistic type that focuses on keyframing. The backgrounds are made up of 2D painted backgrounds, which is the main art style of the art director, Alberto Mielgo.
RENDERING
