Equus: Origins
Series Trailer from HANDFUL OF FILMS on Vimeo.
The Creative Fields team created and supplied the final cinematic character animations and builds for the Dawn Horse and the Darwinius Masillae for Part One of Equus the Series from Handful of Films director, producer and host Niobe Thompson which recently aired on CBC’s The Nature of Things.
In Episode 1, “Origins”, Thompson takes us 45 million years back in time to meet Dawn Horse, a creature that led to all horses today. Tiny, forest roaming, vulnerable to predators, and a fruit eater, Dawn Horse’s fossil remains are brought to life by evolutionary biologist Martin Fischer and Thompson’s team of 3D animators.
The series was reviewed with praise by Fish Griwkowsky of the Edmonton Journal at the time of preview screening at the Winspear in Edmonton.
Depending on your location on the globe you can now watch the Equus the Series online on CBC’s website. It will also be airing on PBS, ZDF, ARTE and others in 2019.
