The Beatles Rockband Outro from Stephane coedel on Vimeo.

Pete Candeland has created an inspirational cinematic outro for the long awaited The Beatles: Rockband video game.

I was part of the compositor’s team.

I was responsible for the shots with George Harrison, Ringo’s foot tapping the big Drum while the flowers start growing and the large shot with The Battersea power plant and the tower bridge, I helped on other shots and did all the pollens particles.

The Cyclotrope



Created and animated by tim wheatley



The cyclotrope is a cycle of 18 images that is spun at a certan speed so that the frame rate of the camera filming it gives the illusion of animation.
