The Oscar-Winning 3D Effects of "Gravity."

Topics:   Articles & links

At the Academy Awards last Sunday night, the space movie "Gravity" was awarded the Oscar for visual effects. In this 5-minute video, you get an in-depth (pardon the 3D pun) look at one brief shot from the movie, illustrating the complexity of combining live-action camera footage, computer-generated images and mathematics to create a final, believable three-dimensional shot. The computer guys…

The event: A young "Java Jack" Tunnicliffe (pictured) and a slightly-older-than-Jack-but-also-young Tom Davidson are shooting promotional footage for a troupe of skilled Chinese acrobats who would soon be touring Canada. As…

A spontaneous Canadian Pride moment!

Topics:   Java Blog

Yesterday, Sunday the 23rd, the Canadian men's Olympic hockey team defeated the Swedish team 3-0 to win the Olympic Gold Medal. You may have heard about it. It was in all the papers. Our very own "Java Jack" Tunnicliffe, along with a few of his friends, stood in line at 5:30 AM yesterday to get into the Lancaster Taphouse to do what every good Canadian boy likes to do: drink beer and watch a…

Brilliant Trojan Marketing (as in the horse, not the other Trojan thing).

Topics:   Articles & links

Java Post Production works with a lot of great advertising agencies throughout Saskatchewan and across Canada. So we've learned to appreciate really clever advertising. Recently, we learned of an extremely clever marketing initiative done by the international shipping and courier company, DHL. This has been described as "Trojan" marketing, as in "Trojan Horse." Watch the video above to see…

Getting excited over a shot of a WestJet plane.

Topics:   Java Blog

This is kind of fun: our boss - "Java Jack" Tunnicliffe - was out and about this past weekend, doing some shooting around town. Here you'll see him capturing a quick shot of a WestJet plane soaring over the City of Regina skyline. This shot was framed "blind," in that Jack saw the plane was coming in, framed up the camera shot and then crossed his fingers and hoped the…

How Popcorn Became The Standard Snack of Hollywood.

Topics:   Articles & links

You love it, you can't get enough of it, you pay waaaaaay too much for it...yes, we're talking about movie theatre popcorn! Those puffy kernels of butter-coated delight have been a part of our movie-going experience for as long as we can remember. But it wasn't always that way. In fact, there was a time when popcorn was considered far too "low class" to be served in fancy-schmancy movie…

Java Post Guys Grab Earl Grey's Cup!

Topics:   Java Blog

Okay, perhaps the title of this post sounds a little strange. What we mean to say is that two of our Java Post Production employees - Randy Shumay and Doug Russell - recently had the chance to get up close and personal with the CFL Grey Cup. When they are not working at Java Post, Randy and Doug work for the Saskatchewan Roughriders' game-day MaxTron crew - helping provide the live production…

Keeping the flame burning for SaskEnergy.

Our animator, Kevin Drysdale, has been working away on a soon-to-be-released animated web commercial for SaskEnergy, produced through MGM Communications. Here you can see Kevin working on an animated natural gas "flame" that will play a…

Enjoying an animated winter with CUPE.

Topics:   Java Blog

Java Post Production recently completed a third animated commercial for CUPE Saskatchewan, entitled "Scenery." This is a continuation of the animation style previously established in the first two commercials. An extra challenge for Java Post animators Kevin Drysdale and Tomás Ibar was that the animated characters were not just going to be walking or running but, as you can see in the…

Happy Birthday to "Java Jack!"

Topics:   Java Blog

Why is this man smiling? And why is he wearing a silly party hat? Well, he's smiling because today is his birthday. And he's wearing a silly party hat because a couple of his employees had access to Google and PhotoShop. Everyone here at Java Post Production wishes a very happy birthday to "Java Jack" Tunnicliffe, the driving force behind Java Post and our very dear friend and colleague.…
