Looking at this very charming 60 second film, you may think that everything is in camera and it mostly is… mostly. Marrying Filament's digital matte painting and compositing talents, it rebuilt the opening shot and relocated the red boat from the Docklands to a fictional coastal town. For the end shot, the CG team worked through several bird flocking simulations to offer a selection of forms until the shape and flight paths were simplified to form a stylised heart. Subtle tweaking in various shots included quietly stabilising a closeup of Tom’s hand holding Ruth’s necklace, and making the inscription legible. In addition to the main 60″ film, Filament delivered two 30″s and three 10″s within the same timeframe. ‘Couplets’ was the first job started and delivered in Filament’s new home on Newman Street, fully utilising its new Flame, Flame Assists, Mayas and lightening fast fibre infrastructure.
