rhinofx Takes Toyota Camry and RAV4 on a Transitional TourNew York-based design, animation and VFX studio, rhinofx recently collaborated with Uncle Director Gavin Bowden to create two :30 spots for Toyota which showcase the best-selling Camry and RAV4 with transformation techniques that take viewers both in and out of the vehicle and across CG backgrounds.
The company used a combination of live-action and CG manipulation techniques to showcase both the broad appeal and versatility of the vehicles.
The Camry tours the city as a variety of people imagine themselves inside, while the RAV4 rambles through an ever-changing backdrop alternating between mountainous terrain and an urban environment.
"The biggest challenges for the series were in determining exactly how to integrate the visual elements into completely seamless transitions," said rhinofx CD/VFX Director Vico Sharabani.
"It was like trying to figure out a puzzle, with the previs, motion control, and production requiring pretty extensive planning."
