In the current lockdown situation, it can often be hard to see how the advertising industry can continue as normal. At The Gate, whilst we’re not able to get out on big location shoots, our agencies and clients have been making the most of our Animation, Editing and audio post set up. We’ve recently just added 5 new suites so can boast 8 suites running a full array of 3D and 2D Cgi and VFX, motion graphics and editing all cutting and outputting in 4K. With creative animators in-house and a full dolby 5.1 audio suite too, we’re set up to create film from scratch and deliver it to your channels right away.
All our suites are now working completely remotely and each is set up to live link to agencies and clients for constant feedback.Here's a few projects our team have been working on recently -

Our animators created these spots to promote Mrs Crimble’s new Gluten Free cookies:
