Halogen

Promotional Piece made for the 10th anniversary of the Halogen Foundation brand, which wanted to portray a journey through their years and speakers. This project was also presented to me as a freelance project via We Love Inc. I made all the set using Adobe After Effects and the soundtrack was offered to us by Concord Dawn. The piece was intended to be enticing and yet not too long as its target audience are the teenagers in the lectures.

Chaos Theory

Final Project for AUT, based on Dr. Seuss stories and using sound as the main tool to create emotions, rather than the visuals. All objects produced within 3d Maya software and converted into flat images, characters set in a 2.5d world in After Effects. I did all the pieces for this project separately first, and the narrative and editing came along as the project evolved. It was not all defined from the start, although a lot of the guidelines were already pre-decided. I believe this way the project could breath and grow freely.

Showreel 08

A small compilation of all my works apart from the works I have done before my freelance projects. I decided to edit my showreel with a more upbeat and light feel to it and keeping it short and interesting.

In The Name Of Art

A short film in which I helped with the compositing process. I did over half of the scenes in this film, that was created by Mardo El-Noor as his Masters project. My brief was simply to make each scene look alive in a way that the set seemed to portray and make all the shots look consistent.

Project Melting Pot

The first paid work. The brief was to create a visual brand for the documentary company Project Melting Pot,similar to the idea of the opening of Warner Brother films. This work was done through We Love Inc,  and they directed me through this idea. To achieve such a look I used Adobe Illustrator, Adobe After Effects and Alias Maya.

Beast

This was the first animation project that I had to do using Maya software. Was among other things my first real encounter with rigging and texturing an object. The brief was to draw and create a 30 second version of your character using this specific software. It had to be lit, textured and animated. An environment also had to be placed, but this was allowed to be composited in. I chose to create everything in Maya and push the software further.

Robocat

This project was the first animation project I was involved with. It had to be a 15 second group project based on a previously made character. We had to work as a team and split the work into subcategories. I was in charge of set design, lights and camera. I also aided in the story writting.
