Title:


    UMA-Mirage "Lasers" spot

Company / Institution / Agency:


  • UMA-Mirage

Description:


    The 30-second spot was generated for the National Bank of Commerce of Texas in response to a need to promote the bank’s enthusiasm for advanced technology. The imagery followed the “laser write-on” of the actual NBC logo inside a geometric environment.

    The vector-based imagery was modeled with B-spline curve fitting techniques and animated using motion parameter controls developed in-house on a Superset PGM-2 hardware system. Output was recorded in a multi-exposure technique direct to 35mm from a high resolution raster display.
