When he\u2019s not working on product launch videos for Amazon, Frederick spends his free time collaborating with EDM artists to create animated concert visuals. Among his many clients is Adam Puleo, a.k.a. <a href=\"https:\/\/woolimusic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Wooli<\/a>, an American record producer and DJ.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recently, he worked on visuals for Wooli\u2019s 2021 tour, which had a \u201cfire and ice\u201d theme that was quite challenging, Frederick recalls. But, using <a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/cinema4d-red-giant-redshift-subscription\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Cinema 4D<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/pixologic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">ZBrush<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.world-creator.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">World Creator<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sidefx.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Houdini<\/a>, he was able to create animations that included fire, lava, smoke, cloth, and plenty of destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We sat down with Frederick to talk about his Wooli concert visuals, which he describes as the best Wooli project yet, as well as his 3D journey and how he keeps pushing himself to learn more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-vimeo wp-block-embed-vimeo wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wooli Tour Visuals 2021\" src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/498526997?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PremiumBeat:<\/strong> How did you get started in motion design?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ian Frederick: <\/strong>I went to school for graphic design and didn\u2019t really get into motion design until the past few years. I was doing freelance work for a while, then, about eight years ago, I got a job at Amazon doing graphic design. After around four years of that, I showed up to work one day and they wanted to transition me into an animation role, doing things like device videos, launch videos, title sequences for conferences, and Amazon Smile animations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I had never opened <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adobe.com\/products\/aftereffects.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">After Effects<\/a>, and I didn\u2019t know anything about animation. My first project was due in five days, so I just dove into YouTube tutorials and learned what I needed to in a couple of hours. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was fortunate enough to be paid to learn new skills that were really cool, and I saw the potential of learning After Effects and motion. So, I dug in and decided to get really good at it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png\" alt=\"Ian Frederick \" class=\"wp-image-157074\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png 500w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png?resize=150,150 150w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png?resize=300,300 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png?resize=277,277 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png?resize=359,359 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/ian_frederick-2.png?resize=96,96 96w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Motion designer and 3D artist Ian Frederick.

I took a crash course in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maxon.net\/en\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Cinema 4D<\/a> and just spent every waking moment watching tutorials on the bus or the treadmill. Designers at work took me under their wings, so I was able to ask questions and learn from them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recently, I transitioned to the new devices team where I work on high-end device launch videos and things like that. In my spare time, I still work and learn motion design and 3D by creating concert visuals for musicians.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PB:<\/strong> How did you start creating concert visuals in your spare time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IF: <\/strong>I was taking on any side projects to learn, and I wanted to do concert visuals. I&#8217;m really into electronic music, and I remember seeing the awesome visuals on the massive screens at festivals. I wondered how to get into that industry, so I decided to make a music video for fun.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I picked a song I liked and made a video to the best of my ability, posted it on a Facebook fan group for a DJ that I liked, and explained that I was an animator looking to get into the business. I got around 120 responses that day, and one of them was Wooli.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"755\" height=\"425\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg\" alt=\"Motion Design \" class=\"wp-image-157078\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg?resize=300,169 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg?resize=277,156 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg?resize=359,202 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg?resize=543,306 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg?resize=560,315 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/Motion-Design-11.jpg?resize=150,84 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Image courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ianfrederick.com\/#\/wooli-tour-visuals-2021\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Ian Frederick<\/a>.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over time, I\u2019ve discovered that there are two different paths with concert visuals. Some artists just want a ten-second, seamless loop that can match up with anything at 135 beats per minute. Others, like Wooli, want specific animations for songs. He likes to cue videos to a specific song to create a short narrative. With electronic music, there aren\u2019t a lot of lyrics so it\u2019s mostly abstract sounds, which allows for a ton of creative freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>PB:<\/strong> Tell us about the latest visuals you made for Wooli.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>IF:<\/strong> I\u2019ve noticed that there aren\u2019t a lot of high-end simulations in concert visuals, like flames, liquids, and cloth. Only the top artists have those types of animations. I wanted our work to stand out, so I worked on intense particle sims. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The music has a mix that is often melodic and beautiful, and that is blended with heavy and mechanical sounds. So, I was drawn to a fire and ice theme, which was Wooli\u2019s idea.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since his logo and theme is a Wooli mammoth, fire and ice seemed to fit well with the primal and prehistoric environment that a mammoth might have lived in. The ice sort of represents the cooler, more melodic songs. And, the fire represents the more aggressive dubstep songs, which allows for lots of creative environments and simulations within that universe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"755\" height=\"566\" src=\"https:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg\" alt=\"Sketch\" class=\"wp-image-157079\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg?resize=300,225 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg?resize=277,208 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg?resize=359,269 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg?resize=543,407 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg?resize=560,420 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sketch-1.jpg?resize=150,112 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Image courtesy of Ian Frederick. <\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wanted to make something that would make people lose their minds when they saw it in concert paired with dubstep.
