The Honda Civic turntable real-time interactive was produced for Spinifex in Sydney Australia.  For this job I worked as the production manager and together with 3 other team members we put together 9 real-time animations for the Honda Civic 2011 stand at the LA Autoshow.  This job was created using Autodesk Maya / Max for the asset creation and Unity3D for the real-time renderer.  This job had to be real-time to match the real car on the turntable.  The stand had 3 plasmas Screens in Portrait mode with an interactive screen to control the content.  Each screen has different themes at at any point of the rotation an animation can be played or even blended into another animation.  This was achieved to create an original engaging experience for the users.  All parties involved were very impressed with the outcome.

Breakdown -

*I worked as a production manager leading 3 staff plus also working as an available 4 resource.
*I also did all modelling and animation

Monopoly Scratchies was a small TVC job done for Kojo in Adelaide, Australia.  I was supplied with some clean plates and a camera track, then it was my job to model the token car and intergrate the 3D car to match the live action actor.  This job took me 4 days to complete from start to finish (includes all rendering in 1080p).

Shot Breakdown -

1. *Token piece modelling / shading
2. *Scene Lighting Set Up
3. *Rendering full HD – 1920×1080

This is a personal project project of mine called ‘Monty Biggs’.  It’s a story of a retired AllStar baseball player that has nothing in his life except memories.  Offered a chance to turn back time Monty has to decide whether he is willing to give up everything………… and I mean everything.

I wrote the script 6 years ago and the project has had waves of interest from myself from time to time, but mostly it has been shelved.  I blame life in general.  I do love my script and vision and I will make this animated short one day

If anyone has a spare million lying around and you want to make an animated short call me, “lets do lunch”

This showreel has been replaced with a new feb 2012 version – I thought I would still post it because shows a lot more of my TVC work.

Inversion was another Plastic Wax cinematic.  I did all of the environment lighting and some character shader work.  I was also able to do the compositing for half of the shots in the Cinematic.  Working together with Matt Dignam and yet another tight deadline we were able to pump this out in a matter of weeks.  Thou I do recall falling asleep upright in the middle of an all night-er, which Matt found amusing as it was in midst conversation.

Shot Breakdown -

1. Environment Lighting Set Up
2. 00:05 to 00:25 Scene Set Up Rendering and Compositing
3. 00:29 to 00:34 Scene Set Up Rendering and Compositing  (excluding the Lutadores)

Rift game cinematic was produced by Plastic Was in Sydney Australia.  My input into this cinematic was mostly environment modelling and lighting.  The entire cinematic goes for almost 3 min with what was a crazy production timeline of only about 8 weeks.

Dawn of War 2 Retribution Cinematic was produced by Plastic Wax in Sydney Australia. This was another tight budget under staffed job – and even though that was the case I think we managed to produce a good quality piece.  This job was basically completed by 3 guys, lighter and renderer (me) , FX guy and a compositor. I did the  lighting and rendering for every shot, all shader work on characters plus sets.

Shot Breakdown -

1. All shader work for characters and sets
2. All lighting setup for all shots
3. All rendering for all shots
4. compositing of shots that appear in my showreel

The Real Racing 2 Cinematic was produced by Plastic Wax in Sydney Australia.  I had a large input into this job doing all the lighting and rendering solely by myself.  I also did modelling of sets and cars, driving animation (using simulation and hand keying).  This was a great opportunity to showcase my ability to work as a generalist.

Shot Breakdown -

1. Modelling various cars and sets
2. Animation – mixture of simulated (majority) and hand keyed
3. All Shader and texture work
4. All Scene Lighting Set Up

I was one of 2 people assigned to create assets for ‘The Pacific’ – approximately a 10 week job I produced 5 large ocean vessels, various Landing craft, and a couple of Airpanes.  It was great to see my work on such a large production even if they did spell my name wrong in the credits (what the freakin hell is with that).

*Special Note - my only input into The Pacific was modelling and texturing
