Mathematic

Great appraisal was paid to the Audio Bully's video Mathematic worked on by Font Feed, a website dedicated to innovative uses of typography. Check out the article by clicking here.

For the cover of MGMT's single 'Its Working' director/designer So-Me created this design inspired by his video for the band which Mathematic helped create. Check out the video here.

Mathematic worked with aspiring new director Vladimir Mavounia-Kouka in the making of his dark thriller short, La Femme à Cordes (translated as 'The Rope Woman' in English)

Made with Caïmans Productions, the film uses scanner darkly like rotoscoping techniques to give it a surreal but graphic look.

After discovering the Altiplano region in Chile, Mihai Grecu, the director of 'Centipede Sun', came up with the idea to create this beautifully atmospheric film. Funded by La Bourse de la Scam, the project was produced with the help of Mathematic Studios and Arcadi. A symbol of isolation and the effects of Global Warming on the climate, the films inspiration was due to the sublime Chilean landscape as well as the country's complex spiritual background.

"The film represents a the landscape as a self-sufficient being and how this is in part is being destroyed. The surrealistic transformations become a logical extension of the magnificent strangeness of the landscapes. These places known for the absence of any form of life within huge distances undergo a symbolic metamorphosis that provides them an internal abstract form of life. It is a geographical, mineral, colossal kind of life, based on elements which are extremely inhospitable to biological existence."

Post effects were created in house at Mathematic using 3D Maya, After FX and real flow.

Director: Mihai Grecu
Music: Herman Kolgen
DoP: Enrique Ramirez
Editor: Momoko Seto

Stills from the film

Some lovely new additions to our on going side project of reinventing the Mathematic logo. Jean Michel who we worked with for Societe Generale and just recently for a project for TF1 and Intermarché has given us the following ...'A Mathematic Story'...Check out more of Jean-Michel's glorious work on his website.

Here are a few snapshots of the crew taken on the two day shoot in Brussels. The shoot lasted all through the night on each day so as you'll see there were a few tired faces not to mention a bit of fooling around.

UFO Director Wu “Nyno” Yue has lately been involved in Nike’s grassroots activities in Paris. The illustrators designs were used to create three limited edition Air Max LeBron VII sneakers newly launched by the brand.

Also a few pictures of Yue in action drawing in Pigalle Basketballs court...

For fans of the Danger Seekers Video, created by The Holograms at Mathematic and UFO, you'll be pleased to see this addition of the film we recieved. After finishing the project the video was widely seen on the internet and at festivals around the world. So it wasnt a surprise when it was picked up by budding sound designers Toby Hulse and Dylan Reboulet. Toby and Dylan who are based in Vancouver designed some alternative sound for the video, which works so well we just have to show it here...

Here are few photos from the shoot and at Mathematic, having fun with some model trees...


Cut Scene
This scene of the transformer didn't make it into the final edit, but we'd like to show it anyway...

Initial Character Designing
Most of these didnt make the cut either, but they are pretty damn cute...
