Director\/co-founder Reza Dolatabadi and his team at new prodco NOBORDER, rev up a gripping brand film set on the storied Interlagos Formula 1 track in S\u00e3o Paulo for the Aston Martin Aramco F1 team and their sponsor Coinbase.<\/p>\n

Reza Dolatabadi: \u201cWhen this new brief arrived, I proposed an animated piece that avoided the familiar visual language of glossy engines, hyper-polished CG, and impossible camera moves. I wanted to approach it as a grounded, cinematic film that happened to be animated.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a high-octane, rapid-cut animation that puts you right on the tarmac, with drivers Lance Stroll and Fernando Alonso narrating the experience of racing through Interlagos.

\u201cWe always try to work with a small, lean, and self-managing team. It\u2019s the only way I\u2019ve learned to make animation and actually enjoy it.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWe created the entire animation and environment in Blender. The workflow involved projecting 2D textures and backgrounds onto 3D surfaces, which gave the world a distinct and cohesive visual character.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe always try to work with a small, lean, and self-managing team. It\u2019s the only way I\u2019ve learned to make animation and actually enjoy it. The trust from the client was incredible \u2014 they gave us full creative freedom and backed every bold decision we made. <\/p>\n

\u201cWith that kind of support and the talent of the team, we managed to squeeze thirty shots into just five weeks. Keeping things compact means less noise, faster decisions, and more of the budget ending up on screen. That focus is what shaped this film and helped us build something that feels true to the world we were depicting.\u201d
