2006 - 2008

Ever since I was small I have always had an interest in cartoons. From this exhilarating passion I was fortunate enough to undergo an art degree instead of a science based degree, (lucky me!) which in turn lead me to do ANiMatioN.

After graduating with a First Class Honors in Digital Animation, I was over the moon when they decided to offer me a free MA. This has given me the time and opportunity to further study the field of interest that I wish to pursue a career in. I continue to draw in my free time which seems to be a rarity these days. My current Project for my Final Major in the MA will either be doing a VFX shot with large robotos (Domo Arigato Mr Roboto) or filming a sitcom. Both I am excited about.

My objective is to really boost up my portfolio and eventually get a job working in the film industry doing VFX. Mainly to eventually get into Pixar, if they want me. Within my portfolio I will be hoping to showcase my concept, animation and compositing skills. I am also currently storyboarding and freelancing.

I am experienced and competant with many software uses that I used frequently within my university projects, which are listed below:

 


MAC Software

  • Final Cut Pro
  • Live Type
  • DVD Studio Pro
  • Compressor

PC Software

  • Photoshop
  • Maya
  • Boujou
  • Mudbox
  • Zbrush
  • Shake
  • After Effects
  • Painter
  • Adobe Premiere
  • Dreamweaver
Other software but rarely used
  • Adobe Audition
  • Flash
  • Director
  • Visual Basic
 

Apart from this, I also have a technical background as a student technician and as a 'Student Ambassador' (posh name for 'Carer') when helping within a teaching environment. Oh and i live in london for those who are interested ^_^
