Black Sabbath
‘The End’ World Tour Intro Film + Concert Visuals
As the legendary Black Sabbath embarked on their final world tour, Third Company was commissioned to make all the video content for Ozzy, Geezer and Tony as they began 'The End'. Working with the brief from Sharon Osbourne and Show Designer, Patrick Woodroffe, we developed ideas, into storyboards, style frames and final animations, for a suitably dark and gothic show.
Designing, directing and animating the intro film, as well as designing most of the video content throughout the show, I was lucky enough to go out to rehearsal and help set up for the first show in Omaha, Nebraska, before the tour set off on its journey around the globe.
