Coach Prime | Barstool Sports

Client: Barstool Sports

We teamed up with Barstool Sports and SMAC Entertainment to create a 3D animated opening title sequence for their documentary series featuring the legendary Deion Sanders. Barstool tasked us with creating a piece inspired by perceptualart.com, that was both entertaining and that highlighted key moments of Sander’s iconic football career. This involved creating 3D scenes to surround photos of the football legend’s iconic career. The final scene required building another 3D environment where all the scene elements were laid out in a way so that they would come together to form the “Coach Prime” show logo through a change in perspective created by the animation of the scene’s camera. 

All in, this project took about two months to create. A large amount of the timeline was spent on the tricky task of designing, texturing, lighting, and animating six detailed, photoreal 3D computer-generated scenes. The last scene of the animation was a bit of a technical hurdle to figure out as well. However, through a ton of trial, error, and time, we were able to create a final piece that both us and the Barstool team are beyond stoked about.
