editors Letter
ever since my departure from the CG industry into the web about a year and a half ago I’ve spent a lot of time researching web sites, (especially really beautiful ones) for inspiration. During one of these random ‘searches for pretty sites’ I stumbled across the sleek looking
saddington Baynes site that made my jaw drop.
now I’d heard of saddington Baynes before but it wasn’t until I noticed a tweet about their strongbow dark fruit campaign that I decided to check out them out, surely if a company is big enough to be doing campaigns for strongbow they must be well established and very
good at what they do.
their site is leaps and bounds ahead of any other creative production company. It’s clean, responsive, and contains a lot of touch-friendly elements. this inevitably lead me to check out their work, which is not only impressive but really well portrayed on their site. each project page contains tonnes of information about their creative process, hi-res images,
testimonials, some even contain behind the scenes images.
there was no way I could dedicate a simple blog post or a few pages in the magazine to this company, so I made the decision to dedicate a whole issue to the work of saddington
Baynes, which is a first time this has been done for an issue of Ceiga.
Anyway enough of me harping on about how amazing this company is let’s check out some of their work.

Saddington Who?
How do they do all these things and do them so well you ask? it’s all down to their knowledge and understanding of what is possible, because of that they can think outsite the box, push the creative boundaries and create the best possible solution with all the highly advanced pieces of tech they have at their disposal.
Practical content designed for the post-digital age, visual content that tells a story, engages the user emotionally, and all done by one compact, agile team. Bet you’re impressed?
S addington Baynes describe themselves as a ‘hybrid creative production agency’ and do everything from, interactive design, creative direction, cgi and retouching to colour grading.

Having worked on previous Strongbow campaigns, St. Luke’s asked Saddington Baynes to collaborate on the initial pitching stages, taking their mock up visuals for the poster campaign and developing the concept further for the client. Strongbow
loved the visuals so much that they skipped the initial testing phase and went straight into production, which reduced budget and time to market.

The cR-V is Honda’s leading car range in europe. The main campaign objective was to help it maintain its popularity within the market. as Saddington Baynes were creating the assets they used as many data outputs as possible, and reused the caD
assets to create multiple elements for integrated media.
Working with three divisions of Honda and four of their agencies, SB were able to reuse the data across all media for the various agencies and divisions, which resulted
in a streamlined process for the client.

collaborating closely with creative Director Julian Newman, Saddington Baynes created illustration concepts from the supplied reference and then further designed in 3D, seeking to personify each liquid monster. each liquid had its own theme with a personality that coincided with its location. Milk spill for a little girl’s room, wine in a
modern apartment and coffee in a bright kitchen.

Saddington Baynes collaborated with The Designory to create pre-launch and launch brochure imagery for the infiniti QX60 (JX). Their role on this project was to create all of the assets in cgi for the brochure plus complete the post-production and colour
grading while working alongside automotive photographer Thomas Strogalski.
This campaign is unique because of the various elements that they needed to consider when placing the cars into these environments. SB mastered the creative process by considering the seasonal cg elements in order to deliver photographic
results.

character design and creation is something that Saddington Baynes have become renowned for, so when they were given the opportunity to craft the perfect mascot
for o2’s newest business tariffs they jumped at the chance.
Bringing eddy to life off the page and into 3D reality was a precise process. Rothco wanted eddy to have his own inner energy, to illuminate the things around him and
exude a welcoming glow. SB agreed that he simply had to elicit an ‘aaahh!’ from o2’s audience - a really emotional response to help humanise the campaign’s business-
like message.

intelligent, visual engaging content
1) When did you develop an interest for creative production? i’ve had a general passion for design and imagery going back 20 years, to when i first studied architecture and art, then photography and visual communication at university. i discovered the art of post-production in ���4 while doing work experience at publicis where i saw a Monsoon perfume project of original �x4 photographer’s transparencies along with a composite digital film output on the lightbox. that and Quantel’s Limitless potential exhibition of trailblazing paintbox retouching set me firmly on my path. 2) How did you get the job at Saddington Baynes and what is the culture like there?
i got my break with sb through an introduction from my first professional client, conceptual photographer and artist nick Veasey owner of image library ‘untitled’. sb has changed quite a bit in the �� years i have been there, going from � people to ten times that many,
but the culture has stayed the same; one of uncompromising commitment to creating extraordinary imagery.
3) Could you tell me a little bit more about your role at SB? My role these days is varied. as co-owner i am responsible for two studios and �0 talented staff, day to day as eCd, my sole purpose is to ensure we consistently innovate & deliver ground breaking imagery; from interpreting a client’s concepts to inspiring our artists and directing the finishing touches. 4) What is the typical process from client approval to finished project at SB? i wouldn’t say we had a typical process, as our work covers so many different mediums, from high resolution Cg for stills and animation to motion VFX and integrated digital campaigns. our clients come to us for their ideas to grow, so early exploration and

look definition is key in feeling out the possibilities. we understand that image production is a collaborative process so we always work flexibly to enable those ideas to mature during the process. 5) Out of all the projects you have worked on, which one is your favourite and why? it would have to be our recent promotional piece ‘Moving stories’ as it epitomises our goal to tell emotionally engaging time-based stories. that it is completely created in Cg is secondary to the cinematography. Cg just helped us get there in a particularly flexible way. as Creative director i am able to share my vision and in the hands of one of our exceptional artists see it realised without limitation. 6) What are the main pieces of software you use for your projects and how long does an average project take?
our main workhorses are Maya, Zbrush, Vray, photoshop & nuke. though we use many other serious tools for bespoke purposes and we also write some of our own tools when off-the-shelf doesn’t cut it. 7) What do you look for when hiring new talent at SB? what marks an sb artist is passion, vision and being a team player. we are a close knit group juggling a lot of projects and it is the team’s ability to support each other and cross over while at the same time developing niche skills that makes it work.
Thank you for taking the time to answer these questions.
