Jericho
'JERICH0' was a 3rd year university VFX and animation cross-discipline film created in 2019 at Escape Studios. Following our brief- to create 'a 1-minute short film, incorporating 3D assets into filmed live action plates'- a team of 12 created this simple, yet emotive story of friendship.
In 12 weeks, we had to get from concept to final comp/renders. A talented team of modellers built the 3D props and characters from scratch, including our lizard Jericho and his robot friend. Every 3D asset used in the film was built by the team. The live plates were even filmed in our producer's apartment!
We were extremely lucky to be able to work with composer Alexandra Harwood, who made the music which brings our film to life. This short was such a huge collaborative effort- and it wouldn’t exist if not for the love and passion shown from each team member. At this point 'Jericho' has been seen at festivals all around the world, and we are so proud of the success our little lizard has had!
