Sehsucht

COOP Underwater World 2013
In the business world it's said that everyone is paid in two coins: cash and experience. Well, we'd rather take notes for the two new spots in our 2013 installment of the beloved Bank Coop Origami commercials.
Short stories need big characters. The underwater performers show emotions and proof that little ones more than ever have the chance to win. Composer Alex Kirschner supports the tension of the film with a score recorded by an orchestra of 50 people conducting the ever modern battle big versus little.

TOYOTA – THE OUTSIDE CAR
![]()
What makes you a grown-up? Is it a proper job or a driver's licence? It's tricky to answer this question and actually we love to keep on seeing and doing things from a child's perspective. Just like the joyful and colorful cartoon character Marco Dottori does in our new clip for Toyota's Stories Of Better – he will never lose that passion of a child.
We produced this charming looking 2D-animated short film in cooperation with our new Sehsucht talents Felix Meyer and Pascal Monaco from We Think Things. Have a look at the smooth and still remarkably warm style!

Mtv EMA 2012
Show package produced in partnership with MTV, for the 19th annual MTV European Music Award, broadcasted live from Frankfurt’s historic Festhalle on Sunday, November 11, 2012.
We created and directed a 20 second sequence, and opener, bumper and closer alterations from 2 to 20 seconds length, revolving around a huge Zoetrope, a fast-moving carousel which evokes the illusion of motion through a fast succession of static elements which come to life with a stroboscopic light.
The animated sequence is a journey through time and space, transcending the ancient Zoetrope concept which stems from pre-Christian Chinese culture to our modern global society. A band lives the American Dream, symbolizing the ascent of a basement musician to stardom across the horizontal zoetrope layers. They move from the underground scene to stardom with the help of their fans and social networks, finally reach the top of the carousel and perform at the MTV EMA.
The realization of the main trailer and more than a dozen alterations raised technical challenges and led Sehsucht to finding unique solutions. To be able to create an extremely realistic look, Maxwell Render was chosen as render technology. 3D design was implemented in the character design at an early stage.
The tool Pixologic Sculptris enabled intuitive character work by designing 3D characters and using the models instantly. Animating the elements was a further challenge since the complete zoetrope is a virtual scale model, nothing is faked. Therefore, everything had to work in loops built in 24 single 'sculptures'.

Mazda Heightened Senses
Enter a mysterious night world and experience the heightened senses of species which have to survive under hard conditions, thus having evolutionally developed an extreme sharpness of senses. Using their skills to enhance the human driver's abilities to control all danger sources he may encounter on the road, this Sehsucht production highlights the wide range of MAZDA's i-Activsense safety technologies.
The car makes its way through mystic, sometimes dreamy surroundings and gradually seems to absorb the wild creatures' special abilities which accompany the driver on his way, finally embodying the perfect fusion of the qualities provided by these animals’ extreme senses.

RAM 1500 – MOVING HEAVEN AND EARTH
Together with Markenfilm we have produced a TV campaign for the new Chrysler pickup truck Ram 1500, created by The Richards Group USA, directed by our creative head Ole Peters and shot in Canada by DOP Stefan von Bobely. The 60 sec. spot is jam-packed with our VFX specialties like violent earth quakes and tumbling rocks. We added VFX to more than seventy shots, creating complex 3D simulations and elaborate set extensions with intense support by our Concept & Design Department. The campaign highlights the Ram 1500 technological achievements which make natural forces and obstacles in the truck’s path retreat in deference to its groundbreaking technology. Winding roads straighten and overgrown paths instantly clear – the natural world is under complete control of the driver. Voice-over is by actor Sam Elliott („The Big Lebowski“) who also appears on camera at the end of the spot and whose deep, rich voice and "Western" appeal fits the Ram brand perfectly.

Deutsche Fernsehlotterie Paper World
Follow the paper flyer into Sehsucht's latest origami-style world of helping hands and improved communities. We produced the 30 sec. TVC "Paper" in full CGI for Deutsche Fernseh Lotterie, a charitable lottery, and their agency Zum Goldenen Hirschen, all three companies from Hamburg/Germany. Director Hans-Christoph Schultheiss and his team walked the tightrope between reduction and complexity, aiming to create the characters as human as possible but with a realistically foldable look that carries the complex textures of paper.

Pictoplasma 2012 Opener
This year's Pictoplasma theme, doomsday, inspired the trailer for the world’s largest festival of contemporary character culture to tell a story around a Macy's Day parade full of twisted characters. Far from the gloom and doom which usually goes along end-of-day stories, Mate Steinforth's pink creatures invade a vacant city and make it their own.

Vorwerk Stadt der Milben
Bright Mites, Big City - this futuristic animation film by Mate Steinforth illustrates the development and destruction of a mite population in only 60 seconds. Enough time for cameos of Hello Kitty bobby pins, bright red lollipops, and - tadah!! - the Vorwerk mite blaster Tiger VT265. And for those who skipped their German classes: "Stadt der Milben" means "Mite City" and "Mehr Saugkraft. Weniger Mitbewohner" reads "More vacuum power. Fewer roommates"!

Grundig Cube
[:de]Erinnerst Du Dich, wie damals auf dem Pausenhof dieser Klappspaten den Zauberwürfel ruckzuck fertig hatte? Heute bist Du ein großer Junge, der entweder mit Technikschnickschnack oder Fußball spielt. Unser neuster TV-Spot für Grundig vereint beides, Nationalkicker wie die HSV-Stars Petric und Westermann bolzen in einer Arena aus LED TV-Screens: "Leistung und Technik – brillant kombiniert". Ole Peters führte Regie, Überdosis erledigte den Rest.
[:en]Remember how envious you watched that smart-ass in the school yard mastering the rubik's cube at light speed? Now you're a big boy and playing means either technical gadgets or footie to you. Here's two in one: soccer pros (from the German national team) play in an arena made of LED TV screens - "an excellent combination of performance and technology". Ole Peters directed this TV spot by our new VFX unit Uberdosis.

Yes, the bearded guy really charms these amazing sounds out of glasses (we used 597 schott zwiesel crystal ones, by the way). no, we didn't find him on "czechia's got talent". Yes, Petr Spatina is an outstanding musician. So what exactly makes you wonder why we got him for Skoda superb?

KHD Black Poem
Fire has come to take its poetic justice. Theatrically staged as a spectacle of flickering fares and illuminous lines of staff, the fire crawls, dances, jumps and flies through pure black emptiness. Accompanied by lyrical narration and an orchestral maelstrom, the tension continuously builds up until it boosts into a dramaturgical inferno. Fire has never been so mystically captivating on screen.

KHD Symphony in red
We also know how to work it the other way round. What looks like 3D-blood was filmed in real life. Out of consideration for the part-time vegetarians among us, we quickly abstained from the idea of making use of the resource „porc blood“. Instead, fish tanks of all sizes and red liquids in all consistencies were obtained and the toilet was turned into our experimental lab. Eager to compete with any science fair, we pipetted, poured, shook , whirled and messed around until the right colour followed the dance the director wanted it to. John Neumeier it was to be, no chainsaw massacre... With lyric fragility the real life sequences were choreograqhed to the virtous sounds of Fail Soy...
In our view, blood does not just flow: it performs pirouettes, arabèsques - par terre or dans l’air, chassé, frappé, glissé...And that is that. We will stop copying from the grand encyclopedia of ballet.
We take a bow and say thank you for the lion.
