I’ve got a few new ventures brewing away which I’ll be posting about soon but in the meantime I thought this would be a suitable juncture to upload a reel of some of the projects I worked on over the last couple of years. Bigger version on Vimeo here, breakdown after the jump…

All work done at Piranha Bar.

The following is a breakdown of my role in each clip:

  1. Tayto: The Man Behind the Jacket. Modelling and shading.
  2. PTSB: Saving and Investing for Life. Modelling, rigging, shading and animation.
  3. VHI: Margaret. Modelling, rigging, animation; vehicles, giraffe, birds.
  4. Nestle Kids Cereal. Modelling, rigging, shading and animation.
  5. Galaxy Bubbles. Modelling, shading, particles and animation.
  6. RTE Idents: Bubbles. Modelling, shading, particles and animation.
  7. RTE Idents: Movies. Modelling, shading, particles and animation.
  8. RTE Idents: Washing Line. Modelling, shading, particles and animation.
  9. Rice Krispie Squares: Western. Modelling and shading; buildings, vehicles, props and plants.

All these projects were worked on as part of the graphics team at PB and I’m very grateful to all of them for their help and support over the past couple of years, I learned a bucket load. Right, onwards and upwards as they say…
