City of Gold Coast

Flood Types

The Client

City of Gold Coast approached Ravel to develop an engaging animated video that provided the general public a high-level overview of the types of floods residents on the Gold Coast can experience due to natural disasters.  

The Challenge

There are multiple types of floods, each with their own varying levels of casualties, impacts and likelihood dependent on time of year and location in the region. The video needed to capture all of this in a way that was visually engaging and easy to digest by general audiences. 

Ravel's Solution

Ravel created a stylistic “diorama” recreation of the Gold Coast with 3D animation. The map’s shape is technically accurate, along with the overall placement of key landmarks and locations. Exaggerations were made with prop scales, such as buildings, rivers and flora. This, mixed with blocky, stylistic shape language, mis-scaled textures, and generous tilt-shift camerawork gave the animation its “diorama” feeling.
