While working at various studios I have hired many artists and seen various showreels drop through the letterbox – some very memorable, if only for all the wrong reasons.

It has an interesting look/style to it.

I haven’t seen their work circulating for a while, but perhaps I wasn’t looking.

Assembly Row, Federal Realty from Neoscape on Vimeo.

Neoscape worked with Federal Realty to create this short marketing film to promote their new mixed-use development in Somerville. The team used stylized motion graphics and realistic 3D visualization to create a distinct mood and atmosphere of excitement and energy for this piece.
