Bird Buddy
Towards the end of 2020 we were approached by Bird Buddy. They were starting a Kickstarter video with Diskont.
First Bird Buddy prototype was ready for film action, but filming birds is tricky so a decision was made that birds will be added in post-production.
The film turned out great and the Bird Buddy story even better.

The project blew up and became one of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns to date.
After that we continued our collaboration with a series of stills and animations in which we recreated the bird house in digital form and added a cg robin.

We took their prototype model, retopologized it, created procedural shaders, created seeds which we’ve simulated into the house and then created a whole bunch of different stills and animations.

We also decided to collaborate on a series of 5 playful 10-second videos exploring bird and birdhouse interactions. This was an ambitious project, and we knew that the robin bird, which was selected as the protagonist, would be front and center.
We decided to do the project (except rigging and animation in Maya) in Houdini. That has proven to be a great move, but it brought with it also quite some growing pains since it was a relatively new platform for the team.
