Channel 4 : tokyo 2020 paralympics

Overview: GHM&D was fortunate enough to be invited to work with Chapter 3 on their graphics for Channel 4’s coverage of the Tokyo 2020 Paralympics. We were intiially tasked with creating location stings for each of thew venues and the events taking place there.

Working in Cinema 4D and using DEM Earth we created a 3D representation of Tokyo and began working up different directions in how to light / texture and animate the scene. We used different materails to present a vareity of options. These ranged from bright contrasting neons, to gold embedded Kintsugi patterns all treated heavily under different lighting environments. Examples of these can be seen below in the ‘Quicklook’ section.
