E4 Proposal: Lord of The Rings

This is an idea I will propose as I am not sure how to appropriately animate the ring. Although I just love how authentic it looks. Here's how I made it, I took a cylinder primitive, and took off the caps to give a ring shape.
Then I applied a metal material to it, and played around with the settings of colours to achieve a gold colour, then I wanted a brush effect so had to adjust a variety of settings within the material layer to achieve this. For the text, I downloaded some elfish script in order to wrap it around the object, I inverted the colours so they became white, adjusted the offset and scale and gave it the engraved look.

The sheer time I have spent 'trial and error'-ing I didn't leave enough time to animate. But I do know how I would want it to look.

E4 Inception Totem Practice

Practicing with the totem - I have made the shape myself, firstly I started with a half spline before using the Lathe NURB on it, then I needed to apply a material - before animating it appropriately. This will be used for the Inception advert.

E4 Ideas: Cube

Experimenting with the E4 logo as a texture on a cube...
This was for a concept of when you throw the dice to decided what to do with your night - in this case the answer is always E4.

ITV - The Office Motion Graphic

One of my ideas was a person or the ITV logo sat in an office waiting for 'home time' - when the big hand of the clock reaches 12 - the person or logo (whichever works best) rushes out of their office chair leaving it spinning, and flys out of the office - with motion blur. The clock isn't featured in this idea, but  I may propose it.
This is how I set up the office:

Due to running out of time, this will be a proposal, as I haven't the time to build everything from scratch, as the majority of the items used in this idea are primitive objects. Also, to animate it properly, and not a rushed job like above, it would take a lot more careful time and consideration.

Sofa Environment

I decided, to make the sofa idea look more realistic, it needed some kind of environment, therefore I have included a wooden floor, with lighting:
