OVERVIEW

Write a short summary of what happens in the film.

It's a futuristic story about the desire of human exploration of new worlds to find new life. As they explore one such desolate planet, our protagonist witnesses colourful meteors falling which crashes nearby. She and her colleagues venture to the crash site and with the help of the powerful FINDX3 phone they examine the mysterious rock and eventually unlocks a power within the rock to bring back life and colour to the world.

Cultural / Context information for the jury

The brand OPPO is known for their positive outlook and attitude in all the work they produce around the world. For this project we also had to stay true to these principles especially during these tough times and give people a hope for the future.

Tell the jury about the visual effects and summarise any relevant challenges or techniques.

Great visual effects is always a big challenge but given our timeline it was especially crazy as we had only 5 weeks after the shoot finished to deliver the full length film. This meant everyone had to multi-task and work on multiple scenes at the same time.

A lot of shots had to be CGI to ensure the smooth transition and because of the reflective material of the phone, there was endless clean-ups so that every frame was perfect. They literally, re-created a new planet for us recomposing most of the shots so that each scene felt more cinematic and unique.

Given OPPO's tough approval process, the visual effects team at Sauvage were able to match and exceed our wildest expectations in the short time that was given.
