Ceremony of Innocence

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ceremony of Innocence is a 1997 video game for the PC based on the Griffin & Sabine novels by Nick Bantock.

The CD-ROM featured voice acting from Paul McGann, Isabella Rossellini and Ben Kingsley. It used animation to tell the story of Griffin, a young English artist, and Sabine, his South Sea Island muse. The game takes the form of a series of postcards sent between the two, which the player has to explore to continue.

The work was produced by Peter Gabriel's Real World label by a team lead by producer Gerrie Villon and creative director/chief designer Alex Mayhew.

Ceremony of Innocence is the painstaking work of over 100 different artists, animators and musicians. The core team of animators from Realworld Multimedia; Dan Blore, Brian Short & Karolyn Pike - all of whom had previously worked on Peter Gabriels 'EVE' CD-ROM, joined forces with Realworlds programmers Darren Umney, Sam Deane, Matt Thurling, Peter Fierlinger, Josh Portway, Chris Wright, Sam Clegg, Andy Lovelock, David Bateman & Robert Mettler.

Joining them were a team of internationally renowned artists specialising in 3D character models, clay-modelling, precision metalwork, pastel painting, and pencil drawings, plus computer-generated imagery; Among them Joan Ashworth Ruth Lingford Bedric Glaser Jeff de Boer Jonathan Hodgson.

Ceremony of Innocence scooped over 17 international awards after its release, including two BAFTA's [1998] for Best Moving Image and Best Sound.
