DISCOVERY MARITIME MISFORTUNES (2024) | DESIGN/ANIMATION: Marc Hardman | DISCOVERY CHANNEL
This is a branded Discovery Channel Ident to promote the 'Maritime Misfortunes' season of documentaries. This was a fun one to play with, getting realistic water and lightening effects working together to create a scene that looks both dramatic and dangerous. I'm using a pre-existing ocean backplate and then comping in the rendered text and adding splashes, rain and lightning to bed the text into the scene and make it look like it is interacting with the water.
DISCOVERY SPACE WEEK (2018) | DESIGN/ANIMATION: Marc Hardman | DISCOVERY CHANNEL
This is my Discovery Channel ident to promote 'Space Week'. This old-school broadcast monitor was launched into space via a weather balloon. The monitor was attached to a rig which held a camera that captured these fantastic images. Unfortunately my channel ident wasn't actually broadcast in space. Once these images were captured (and returned to earth), I comped my animation onto the monitor screen. Below is a further channel ident I designed and animated for the same event.
