MACHINE

A film about Artificial Intelligence – the most radical new technology of our time.

The film talks to world-renowned experts, the people who are creating, researching and controlling this new technology. Story chapters address many of the key issues at stake – AI companions, the dilemma of driverless cars, autonomous warfare, targeted social media, using AI to create human super-intelligence and the very real possibility of a Robot Apocalypse.

MACHINE is directed by Justin Krook and produced by the team behind Chef’s Table. Never Sit Still and Luxx were commissioned by FINCH to work on the 3D visualisations for the film.

The Neural Network

The opening 3D shot which establishes the Neural Network was essential to the film. This section explains how the original neural networks were developed and visualises the structure of deep learning.

Replika

A demonstration of Replika, an app which allows you to create an A.I. ‘best friend’. It can mimic your text conversations, powered by a proprietary deep learning architecture.

Social Media & Journalism

Huge online tech giants use artificial intelligence to monitor and track users, harvesting and manipulating data, targeting posts and advertising. The impact this has on our lives is immeasurable and this section explores the huge scale at which these companies use and abuse information through social media and journalism platforms.

The Human Brain

Yukiyasu Kamitani received international attention in 2012, when he led a team that used functional neuroimaging to scan the brains of people as they slept, enabling them to decode the visual content of their dreams. This section examines how these revolutionary scientists used AI in their work.

Autonomous Vehicles

Autonomous vehicles will be radically different to the cars of today. With no need for a driver, this chapter explores the technology, safety and ethics behind driverless cars.

Super Intelligence

Once AI reaches an intelligence level greater than the human scientists, further developments will increasingly be developed by the AI itself. This could become the AI runaway effect, an intelligence explosion. Super Intelligence will evolve, possibly in a few years, perhaps never.

Dancing With The Stars

We were invited to created a complete package of show graphics for the new season of Dancing With The Stars on 10. This was a perfect opportunity to don our sequins and tassels, dress it up with some razzle dazzle to create a glamorous and glittery package of sparkles and lens flares.

We evolved the existing DWTS brand and created hundreds of elements as part of a flexible broadcast toolkit which was used during the live broadcast. Supporting the HD graphics, we also created 4K animations for the main stage arches and graphics for all of the screens on set. The toolkit was broken into logical components which could be mixed and matched live during broadcast, on the stage screens, floor projections and the judges desk. Alongside these key components, we also designed and build the judges scoring, multiple split screens, elimination moments, lower thirds, transitions, the leader board, and all assets for VIZ.

During the season, we created additional elements for theme specific episodes. The twirl moments to introduce each dancing couple, promos for the judges teams, and unique title cards for each episode.

10 Sport ID

Part of the on-air package we created for the Channel 10 rebrand included an ID for 10 Sport, the Network 10, Premium Sports Channel.

Based on the 10 circle motif, we evoke the energy and excitement of sport using simple geometric shapes, animated and rendered in the 10 brand style.

10 Rebrand

10 REBRAND

Luxx created a motion toolkit and a collection of Brand IDs, as part of a package for the Network 10 rebrand.

We worked closely with the in-house team at 10 developing the on-air look from the primary brand assets created by Principles.

We blended colour, light and shade creating a unique collection of beautiful gradients. The 2D logomark was pushed into 3D space to add depth and vibrancy, the colours echo around the logo as it reveals.

As part of the broadcast package, we produced a variety of assets for the 10 Network, sub-brands & channel specific promos, including 10 Peach, 10 Sport, Dancing With The Stars and The Secret Life of Four Year Olds. The brand collateral created at Luxx has been used through all channels, including on-air, print, social media and environmental advertising.

CHANNEL 11 REFRESH

When Network Ten were looking to refresh Channel 11, they approached Luxx to contribute to the overall package. We produced a collection of on-air assets, including promos, stings, bumpers and line up boards.

The range of deliverables was diverse to match the channel programming and included a combination of both hand animated and dynamically driven animations, including huge soft body donuts dropping from the sky.

Doh!
