Co-developed by Silicon Graphics and Discreet Logic, FLAMEtm is a resolution-independent software application that allows users to do real-time live-action compositing, editing, and design. Click 3X employs FLAME artists that are not only talented designers, but also have extensive technology experience. "FLAME on the Silicon Graphics® Onyx® supercomputer is one of the most powerful visual design and effects tools available," says Marcos Obadia, president of Click 3West. "One of our goals is to make the technology as transparent to the artists as possible and enable them to explore visual ideas far beyond what any manual tells them they can do."
In the IRS commercial "Pencils" Click 3West artists use a live-action background with extensive FLAME work to add such effects as shine, blending, and motion-blur. |
