Jack Garratt Visual Research - Secret 7 - Studio Brief 01 - OUGD503

By analysing the lyrics of the song, it was possible to dissect what Garratt was trying to communicate in his song: "Picking up the pieces you left" to imply he is gathering items that his ex girlfriend has left around him.
This then sparked the idea of using a 3D rendering program called Cinema 4D to create a unique design that would resemble the 'pieces' Jack speaks of in the track.
Here are some quick images that I've found that would resemble the outcome that would be produced:

By using a plugin for Cinema 4D called Thrausi, it is possible to animate an exploding shape. This can represent the 'pieces' from the song.

Overall, there isn't much visual research needed for this brief as the software is down most of the work for me, as to attempt something like this in Illustrator would be near impossible.

The outcomes must look well polished and natural but not too cinematic which is difficult when using a software such as this. Processing the still render in Photoshop will help add depth and help reduce the synthetic effect the software gives.
