I was asked to contribute an image for Nobrow's seventh issue. The theme for this issue was "Another World". In my particular brief I was asked to create the artwork in two colours, Black and a second colour that would be choosen for me which was quite interesting. In the end im not sure how successful the narrative I designed was but it was still fun to take part in the project.
I worked on a pitch last week for an animated commercial. I presented style frame images and a short animated test in a couple of days. Despite being told the pitch I provided was the strongest, unfortunately (typically), they changed their idea and have pulled the project. So to prevent it from being a complete waste of time above are two of the style frame images I proved in the pitch.
Walk cycle test from a while back. Character animation by the talented Frankie Swan. Design, compositing and sound by me.
An image of mine is has been featured in the latest creative review. The feature is about the up coming exhibition at the V&A “Memory Palace". My part in the exhibition was to create a 16 page narrative describing the process of making the exhibition.
