The colours are alive.
RELIUS wanted a short Halloween film for social media. The RELIUS colour mixing system is called Living Colours. We took the name literally: something lives in the buckets.
Three colours, three monsters. Green like poison. Orange like pumpkin. Purple like magic. Each one is a painting tool: paint roller, flat brush, pointed brush. At the start, the three lids form the face of a neon pumpkin.
The result is a 30-second animated film with its own music and a narrator. RELIUS showed it on Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn.
When colours come alive, it’s RELIUS. Or Halloween.
More possibilities.
An animated film with three characters, its own music and a narrator would previously have blown the budget for a Halloween post. Now it is economically feasible.
Directed and delivered.
Humans direct: the idea, the characters, the colours, every decision in the frame.
SI delivers: it operates the 3D software, builds the monsters, composes the music, speaks the text and edits the film. Technology without technicians.

DIE GESCHICHTE EINES KREATIV-MONSTERS „Hey Christian, wir brauchen bitte was Schönes zu Halloween für Relius Farbenwerke GmbH.“ Klar, ich mache mich an die Arbeit. Die Gedanken tanzen um die RELIUS-Themen. COOL COLOURS, LIVING COLOURS … Können die Farben nicht buchstäblich zum Leben erwachen? Als kleine Monster, die aus den Farbeimern kommen?
THE STORY OF A CREATIVE MONSTER “Hey Christian, we need something cool for Halloween.” Sure, I’ll get to work. My thoughts dance around the RELIUS themes. COOL COLORS, LIVING COLORS … Couldn’t the colors literally come to life? As little monsters crawling out of the paint buckets?
