The idea was to experiment and explore workflow in the software package Cinema 4D and publish one frame from my experiments daily.. Rules -Animate 1 second everyday -Publish one frame daily at blog.steffenk.net -Put it all together to approx. 30 seconds of animation In the end I didnt quite manage to complete this challenge on a daily basis, but I ended up with 30 motion tests and this is the result..

of the titles for House M.D.. After changes were made to the cast of House M.D. in the show’s seventh season, the main titles needed an update. During my stay at Digital Kitchen, we were tasked with revising the intro to reflect these new cast members, as well as updating selected scenes. My role was to investigate styles that could give an updated feel to the titles, but preserve a strong connection to the original material. Based on input from one of dK's Creative Directors, I explored a microscopic aesthetic for the new frames, connecting the original work via an “inside the body” feel by using elements of cells and microorganisms. Please note that this work is based on the original assets and artwork by the dK team; this was my reimagining of their efforts along with my original additions.

In the last four years a group of 5.000 designers - members from laFraise, Behance, deviantArt and other big design websites - joined them to create designs, music and articles around this major theme. 4 Designers. 4 Cities Gaia curator Marius Bauer approached Steffen Knoesgaard with a suggestion to collaborate on making the first official trailer for the Gaia project and thus adding moving images to the Gaia project for the first time. Teaming up with fellow motion designers Fredrik Ekholm and Simon Holmedal, the team created the trailer working in an online collaboration from 4 different countries based out of New York, Amsterdam, London and Munich. Musician Kevin Durante, an contributor to earlier Gaia releases, joined in to make a custom sound track - that will be released later as a full length track on the forthcoming Gaia album.

Music by Harmonic 313 http://work.steffenk.net/Analogue-experiment http://work.steffenk.net/following/work.steffenk.net/Analogue-experiment Sun, 13 Dec 2009 16:16:27 +0000 Motion Design/Direction by Steffen Knoesgaard 186023 For a music video assignment at Hyper Island, Mikael Danielsson and I played around with a lot of fruit colour, syrup, oil, water and other liquids. Our aim was to create some abstract footage inspired by this video: vimeo.com/4281374 The end result was nice, so I tried experimenting with a couple of the clips with another music track. This is the result. Thanks to Christopher-Robin for help with gear, setup and assistance during the shoot! http://work.steffenk.net/Granule-Tribute http://work.steffenk.net/following/work.steffenk.net/Granule-Tribute Sat, 26 Sep 2009 17:10:15 +0000 Motion Design/Direction by Steffen Knoesgaard 94107 Individual assignment made at Hyper Island's Motion Week. The brieft was to make a short animation within a 24 hours deadline based on something you like. I chose to do a tribute to the typeface Granule designed by Corey Holms. About Granule A basic rounded sans-serif with a twist, Granule is tightly kerned to emphasize the rhythm of the letterforms, with a distinctive curl on a few of the lowercase letters to separate it from the pack. Granule includes a full character set with alternates glyphs. Granule is available from You Work For Them Buy it here Credits Motion Design: Steffen Knoesgaard Music: The Battles & DJ Koze
