ABOUT 

JAM VFX are pleased to have worked on NBC Universal’s City of crime season creating stand alone idents, promos, inserts and bumpers for its channel 13th Street. 

The premise for the campaign was to create weapon related photoreal CG objects and composite them into real city live action vignettes, carefully matching the scale and perspectives. 

The cities were London, Honolulu, Detroit, Vegas and New York which all related to NBC’s crime season programming. 

The Studio at Jam worked closely with NBC’s creative Andrew Clyde and head of design Mark Gouldie in creating the objects and imbedding them in the scenes. Animatics were produced, shots were camera tracked and final scenes were composited and graded by Dan Andrew and Pete Young using Nuke, Flame and Nuke Studio to create the final scenes.  

The end results can be seen below along with links to the final spots and breakdowns.

SIMILAR PROJECTS:

I have worked with many Vis FX companies over the years but most recently with JAMFX and the I found the experience to be by far the best.  The most crucial element for me is the communication and I found this to be fantastic.    I was able to speak to our supervisor any time – no problem was too big or small for them to sort.   We were on a very tight deadline and they delivered ahead of time and the work was exemplary.     They are also an incredibly creative company and always felt that they cared about the project and had invested time in understanding what was needed.
 
I know that our whole team from our director to our post producer enjoyed the experience and crucially, plan to work with them again.
