Piranha Bar once again teamed up with Javelin Dublin to create a campaign of ads to highlight the rights and services available to all victims of crime under the Department of Justice’s Victim’s Charter.
We recreated life-like 3D models of all the live action ‘victims’ to shot on set, by taking highly detailed 3D LiDar photo-scans of each from head to toe. This enabled our studio to project the light from the Victim’s Charter typography onto these models so that to wrapped and warped realistically around ever crease, nostril, lip and wrinkle. Once the CG light-projections were perfectly tracked to the live action, the resulting composites gave us the convincing visual effect we were after.
Piranha Bar is both a Production Company and a full service Post Facility.
Our roster of directors and our studio of animators, 3D genii, flame artists and production elves all share a passion for effective storytelling.
From live-action to animation, high-end VFX to origami and lots in between, every executional technique supports ‘The Story’. This results in engaging, beautifully crafted work that speaks, sometimes whispers and occasionally screams with one singular creative voice.
Whatever the project demands, from inception to execution, Piranha Bar encourages a collaborative approach to the creative process and looks to workshop concepts, techniques and media options with our clients.
In addition to the traditional production company workflow, Piranha Bar offers a more collective approach, where every pre-production, production and post solution is explored and delivered in-house, under one elegant Georgian studio roof.
As the world rapidly shifts focus from one medium to another and across multiple communication platforms, we seek to explore the kinds of concepts and executional techniques that result in true originality.
Piranha Bar is primarily a place to come and work with talented people, to challenge norms, to innovate and to create the very best work.
