**Careful** a film by Damian Gascoigne

2005, 6 min 07 sec

### technical

#### process summary

**Careful** is made from a combination of hand drawn animation, 3D computer generated-animation and treated live-action.

The aim was to create a sense of a three dimensional environment using line drawn elements and to develop a look for the film that pushed the boundaries of design in computer animation.

The various ingredients were coloured in Photoshop and then composited in After Effects.
