Who are you? Let us know where you hail from and what you do.
I’m Fraser Davidson, co-founder of Cub Studio along with Ben Skinner. We are a small animation company based in London, UK. We create animated content for TV, the web and occasionally mobile.
What are you working on?
At any one time, we are working on 3-6 projects. Right now we are working with ESPN and the NFL on a couple of online animations due out this month. We are halfway through creating the graphics for the third series of BAFTA-Award-winning BBC show “The Revolution Will Be Televised” and creating a short explainer video for Raygun in New Zealand.
Choose a favorite shot of yours. Tell us why it’s a favorite.
Right now, I think I like this test piece [POW!] for one of our upcoming pieces. We post a lot of test material on Dribbble as it’s a great way to test the waters and gauge reaction for an idea. We love looping.
Tell us about your setup. What tools did you use to create the shot (e.g. hardware, software, pens, paper, blowtorch)?
This is not Fraser Davidson. This is Fraser Davidson’s dog, Molly.
We use mainly After Effects and Cinema 4D to create work. This is a very simple illustration brought to life in After Effects with a few simple animated shape layers and strokes.
Choose a favorite shot from another Player. Why do you dig it?
I really liked this piece from last month. It’s a fantastic loop. Extremely simple at first, but the more you look at it, the more lovely detail and clever secondary motion you see. It has great character.
