Oasis - Acquiesce

Who is this devilishly handsome chap in this Oasis music video?

I'm the second from the right in this photo.
I played Noel Gallagher in the Oasis Acquiesce official music video. Filmed in London and Japan. Directed by Robert Hales. HSI Productions. 2006.

Taking footage from a cold cloudy shoot and making it look hot and sunny :)

Worldmark Films Motion Graphics 2015

Here's my Monty Python inspired motion graphics work for Worldmark Films. :D

Nationwide

Some motion graphics work for Nationwide used at their Nottingham branch :) 

RED!!

Holy moly, at work with a RED! What a mighty camera. :D

 

For this video project I'm in charge of supervising the green screen stuff which will make my work later in post much easier. :)

Addam Man 2014

A bit of fun filmmaking the other day. A play on the Iron Man 3 suit up sequence. Getting ready for the cold weather!

A bit of silly photoshop fun with some toys :D

Adding an explosive background and voila! :D

Gun flare and an overall bleach effect using levels and contrast controls.

Here's the original pic. Attempting my best Stallone face.
I stumbled across this toy from a cartoon series called Max Steel that my son and I have become quite hooked on.

Kit.

My humble kit for the last couple of years. A Canon 550D and a Macbook Air. I've been considering an upgrade but honestly, they have served me well, light to carry on my various motion graphics adventures, and I'm still amazed by what these things can do.
I tend to use an external monitor at the offices where I freelance. If a monitor isn't available I can hijack other Macs as a monitor with the thunderbolt cable. Handy dandy. :)

The Trouble with the F Word

Giving Lucy Anne-Holmes (Founder of the No More Page 3 campaign) the Monty Python animation treatment with After Effects.
For a documentary about feminism by Frog and Roastbeef Films.

Rigging!

Worldmark Films

I'm currently working on some fun Monty Python inspired animations for Worldmark Films.
Cutting out lots of shapes in Photoshop and giving it what for in After Effects, bringing characters to life. Including a robot! :D

Character rigging! Parenting all the layers together. :)

 

Here's a screenshot of how the layers are parented to each other in After Effects. Very important to label everything!

Holiday!!!

Back from Spain, fried to a crisp and ready to get back to work.

Here's a picture of my son Raphael and I at the seaside in Barcelona!
First time there. It was awesome. :D

Rwar!

Doing some sweet VFX for a werewolf film this week for Brainy Monkey Post Production! :D
Rotoscoping the actor out of the werewolf suit and adding spooky glowing eyes.

Things got tricky when the branches were in the way..
