<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For the last decade or so, Christmas time has, for the Crater team, been like the dark before the dawn&hellip; the final stretch when the pressure is boiling, strength is giving out and you&rsquo;re almost ready to send it all to hell - but you somehow end up pushing through and making it to the other side.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As 2019 is winding down, the atmosphere at the studio is strangely still for this time of year.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The slower days give me an opportunity for some quiet reflection. As I roam around the rooms, I absorb every tiny detail. I find myself smiling, the reality of an entire lifetime within these walls hitting me in the head.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">A name that began as a philosophical joke during Serbia&rsquo;s grayest times. A crew of VFX&zwnj; junkies with a mutual affection for spending a Friday night slinging beers and making some screen magic.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">And since then?
<h3 dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.44; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt; padding: -12pt 0pt 4pt 0pt;"><span style="font-size: 22.5pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: bold; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We&rsquo;ve shaken hands with masters we thought we&rsquo;d never even see in person. Landed moonshots we thought we&rsquo;d never even try. Pulled off some pretty improbable feats and signed our names under quite a few impressive projects. We&rsquo;ve left footprints in all corners of the globe and built a network spanning most of it.</h3>
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">If walls and keyboards could talk!&nbsp;
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I think of our first studio - the apartment we rented in Belgrade where we ate, slept and worked around the clock. I can see it all. Roars of laughter, all-nighters, junk food and being high on the fact you get to do something you love. Ridiculous deadlines and laughable budgets. Our starry eyes and the unmistakable sweet taste of making the impossible possible.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">The images keep coming: united through the good and the bad, the thick and the thin, inside the studio and out in the real world. Led by a simple maxim, <span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">to always give our best<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. Weddings, funerals, birthdays and anniversaries mark the timeline like signs on a hiking trail as the memories unravel.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I&rsquo;m guessing having enough time to think about something like this means you&rsquo;ve made it to some kind of top.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Back in reality, I am surrounded by a snake of workstations lining the walls. I beam with pride. Each a tiny universe and mirror of its owner, these desks are nodes in a creative web capable of going unspeakable lengths and achieving incredible results. It&rsquo;s intoxicating.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">It&rsquo;s also funny, because we didn&rsquo;t really have an idea where we&rsquo;re going to end up when we started this journey. Sure, we knew we were in for a wild ride &ndash; long one even &ndash; but the exact destination was pretty foggy to us.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">We didn&rsquo;t talk, plan or envision much; we were hungry and reaching for the stars. The only way to see what was in front was to go forward, so we did.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">For almost fifteen years.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Now, with 2020 around the corner, I think it&rsquo;s safe to say it is time for some 20-20 clarity. And for the first time in a long time, instead of racing to the finish line, I have some time to breathe before bracing for the next summit.
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Wow, is all I can say.

<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I am thankful to whatever force, supernatural or not, made this possible.&nbsp;
<span style="font-size: 15pt; font-family: Roboto,sans-serif; color: #3c3c3c; background-color: transparent; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Most of all, I am thankful to those whose hard work it was built on and the ones keeping it growing still.&nbsp;

<h2>Synopsis</h2>
When Pig&rsquo;s free-spirited, rambunctious new neighbor, Duck, plunges himself into Pig&rsquo;s quiet, orderly life, Pig learns that having friends is what he has been missing all along.

<h2>About The Film</h2>
Based on London author John Kelly&rsquo;s beloved children&rsquo;s book, &ldquo;The Pig on the Hill&rdquo; is heart-warming story about next door neighbors who are worlds apart. Living in the whimsical mountaintop community of Topton, Pig very much enjoys his solitude and silence. In every direction, an expansive, gorgeous view of the surrounding mountains and waterways, with no neighbors as far as the eye can see. One day, however, Duck shows up and zealous about the amazing location, he decides to build a home right next door, causing an awful ruckus as he installs a water slide, swimming pool, palm trees, and outdoor sound system. Pig tries to ignore the disruption to his sanctuary, wearing noise-canceling headphones and busying himself with his daily routine. But Duck&rsquo;s ebullient presence has forever upset the rhythms of Pig&rsquo;s organized life.

Crater Studio and Lightstream Animation Studios (LSA) have been partners and collaborators on many VFX, film and animation projects since 2010. It was a great honor to have Mr. Pierce Brosnan as the narrator and a promoter and supporter of the whole project.
<img src="https://app.craterstudio.com/storage/posts/November2019/LSA_POH_5.jpg" width="100%" height="100%" />
We spent almost three years in the making of this little gem. We were coming back to it every time we were free from the ongoing commercial projects. That had its own benefits, as we had some extra time to rethink some of the details. In general pipeline worked well. John and Jamy from LSA were taking care of animation scenes and were fantastic visual consultants. All look development, lighting, compositing and some animation took place in Crater Studio with all creative freedom given. We used Maya &ndash; Houdini &ndash; Nuke pipeline. Textures were produced in Mudbox. We rendered all shots in Arnold, and composited in Nuke. The aim was to have the best possible beauty renders, so the minimal touches are done in compositing. In order to achieve that artists in Crater Studio spent a considerable amount of time in light &amp; ldev stages of the process. Compositing served to unveil Crater Studio&rsquo;s artists&rsquo; hard work in full color &amp; glory.

Creatures from Crater at @CGA Belgrade!

Crater Studio has reunited with other VFX forces in Serbia to create an opener for CGA Belgrade 2019.
It is a pleasure to work on projects like this that bring us closer. And it was also interesting to play with chairs, in terms of textures, animation, fx, Idev and compositing.
Save November 1st and 2nd to your calendars and register for the free entrance <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/cga-belgrade-2019-computer-graphics-arts-conference-tickets-74269101883" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">here</a>.

New CGA Belgrade opener is here!

Crater Studio is one of 14 studios that joined forces last year to create the Opener for the <a href="https://cgabelgrade.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CGA Conference</a>, with Miljana holding all the threads in her hands as an executive producer.
It was a great pleasure for us to participate in this project, and see how it looked behind the scenes ...

Making of last year's Opener for CGA Belgrade is here!

Collecting references is certainly an important part of our job and it can be very interesting, at least it was to our internship team. 
In order to make more realistic 3D models of airplanes that they are making during the internship, our mentors took them to a trip to the Museum of Aeronautics in Belgrade, so they could collect necessary material. It was very practical, educational and fun for all!
&nbsp;

Crater intership team at the Museum of Aeronautics!

Like previous years, one more time we are organizing an internship for our best students in Crater Studio, to help them master skills and gain experience in a real production environment.
Several foreign students from <a href="https://www.pearsoncollegelondon.ac.uk/escape-studios.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Escape Studios</a>, London UK, have joined this year's internship as well. They will work together on project ''Drava'' mentored by Crater's artists. We wish them all a lot of success!

Internship 2019!

We enjoy creating the VFX magic, but we are especially happy when the audience likes the effects we created, which happened in one of the most popular and the most expensive Bollywood films to date. People rushed to the theaters to watch Robot 2.0, the project Crater did compositing and morphing simulations for.

Crater @ Robot 2.0

Ten students have won REEL REVIEW &amp; FEEDBACK SESSION in various VFX studios as part of <a href="https://cgabelgrade.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">CGA Belgrade</a> conference on November 28th.
Elena Madelaine Mathias and Aleksandar Paskas came to Crater Studio.
They found out about the necessary qualifications for internship at Crater and how to improve their work, as a first step to a successful career from Crater's lead artists, Bogdan and Maksim.
