This is a short film I've been working on in my free time over the past few years. It started as an opportunity to improve my creative and technical skills, and as an outlet for ideas. I was very inspired by some Japanese short films and wanted to try to reach that high level of quality and interesting feel on my own. This film is entirely my work, from initial story layout and design through all levels of 2D/3D and into the final composite.
Currently I have around 3 minutes of the film complete, and the rest is in varying stages of production. It is on hold until I can find some more time to complete it.

This is a 3 minute short made for Nickelodeon. Working at Kapow Pictures, I created all the 3D visuals for the show, and then composited everything together with some 2D elements. This is part of a collective of shorts for Nickelodeon, with 3 others also being simultaneously made at Kapow Pictures.

The opening titles to Turok: Son of Stone, an animated film. I created all the visuals.

A feature film being directed by Joseph Wong which required around 1 minute of 2D/3D effects. This included an Alien, who appears and wraps his tentacles around 2 of the actors and then returns to his spaceship. I created all the 2D/3D effects visuals and composited them together. Final grade not yet complete.

This is a commercial for a Sony Cybershot camera. It shows a man sitting on a couch divided into 2 halves. My role was to create the black surface where his body is cut, track it to the actor's movements and shade/render. Unfortunately I don't have the final composite available, shown here is my work in progress composite.

These are 3 car commercials for Nissan's Dualis. The car transforms into a Japanese Mech-type vehicle and runs around the city. Unfortunately due to scheduling constraints I only had a small role on this job. My main task was to build the neccessary blendshape's and parts for the robot to transform to a car and vice-versa. I also animated the few shots shown on my demoreel.

2x15 second commercials for Pepsi. All visuals made by myself and Ian Dodman with a deadline of around 7 days per commercial.

5 commercials for Tiger Beer that required some background replacement and CG effects. My main role was to work with the matte painters to replace backgrounds and extend shots that weren't possible to achieve in camera. I was also responsible for creating an 'ice table and well' over severals shots of the New York commercial.

A commercial for Sony involving a bunch of CG robots walking through live action streets. My main role was to model the robots. I built all the models, did the UV's, and assisted with texturing and rendering.

A children's feature length film. I modelled some of the sets for the Scare School.

A music video featuring Mariah Carey singing "Santa Claus is Coming to Town". I was an all-round artist on this job. I modelled Mariah, her outfits, her house, and alot of the props/sets. I animated a number of shots and did some lip sync.

A children's feature length film. I was mainly a supporting artist as I wasn't able to stay on for the full length of the production. I modelled most of the ice sets as well as many props. I also setup alot of the morph targets for facial animation, and I did some of the pre-vis.

A commercial for Toyota Scion. I was a lead 3D artist on this job. I modelled the car, 2 of the other vehicles, all of the opening set and some of the later pieces. I rigged all the vehicles and I animated, lit and rendered around 12 shots. I also did around half of the initial 3D pre-vis.

A commercial for Toyota Scion. I was a lead 3D artist on this job. I modelled the robot, modelled and animated some of the closeup robot detail shots, rigged the robot for animation, lit and rendered the final sequence and animated the transition from robot to car and then from car xA to xB.

A music video for the band Boom Boom Satellites. My main role was modelling lead. I modelled all the characters (around 14), and some of the sets. I also did all the facial animation, secondary clothing & hair animation, and I lit and rendered many shots.

As a junior artist I worked on many varied jobs at Ambience Entertainment before I was given a large role on any job. These jobs include:

While I was a student at the Computer Graphics College I was contacted by SSG to work on some cutscenes for their upcomming game, Warlords Battlecry 2. I created marching soldiers and piles of fallen warriors.

While studying at the Computer Graphics College I was hired to assist with 3D graphics in a commercial for the school. I modelled a large robot head and assisted with lighting and rendering.
