Behind the Scenes: BSS Holiday Greeting 2011

Happy 2012! We had a ton of fun over the holidays and hope you did the same.  Our 2011 Holiday Card may have given you a glance at a few of our shenanigans.  Spiked punch, Santa Claus, raining money, police and a very large horse all made their way into the card.  Here are some BTS cell phone snapshots of the fun (borderline absurd?) production. And yes, the horse was real and had a comfortable 4" clearance under the doors.  
Our holiday card this year was inspired by a project we just completed for our friends at The Alchemedia Project which just went live the other day, and you can check it out here.
More pics and a quick video clip after the jump.

Happy Holidays!

Merry Holidays and Happy New Year from your friends at Bruton Stroube!  We decided to host a little soiree in the new motion building before we started construction.  Click the image below to see what kind of mischief we got into.  Enjoy!

Our card this year was inspired by a project we just completed (but can't show yet!) for our friends at The Alchemedia Project...stay tuned for a blog post about it soon!

The Modo Moto

Keeping in tune with all things fast, Roger has been cranking away on a new side project, no kickstart needed. A natural progression from his 3D Mach 5 Racer from a couple months back, this time Roger takes to two wheels in Luxology's Modo 501, a 3D modeling and rendering software. 
Inspiration wasn't too far off as Roger is a motorcyclist himself. Added influence came in the form the music. The sounds of Queensrÿche flowing through his earphones, while balancing time between his computer and his garage for parts reference. 
Detail shots and some early wireframe models after the break.
