1966 World Cup Final
Award: Wood Pencil
Wood Pencil / Graphic Design / Moving Image (Graphic Design) / 2017
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of England’s 1966 World Cup win we created a film that revealed little known facts about the occasion.
Employing modern high production values, such as slow-motion, close-up and multiple camera angles, we were able to deliver a dynamic new perspective on the events of the day.
We were sensitive to the iconic status of the match and strove to strike a balance between retro and contemporary. The film uses elements of 3D modelling, 2D animation and stop frame effects and references Kodachrome colour footage from the day, to create that unmistakable 60's feel.
