Moving Image Showreel

This new showreel incorporates both visual effects compositing film and 3D animation, the first part shows some last minute film/editing work recently acquired independently, the edit is great because it's been rushed to fit into to this showreel.

The second part of this Showreel demonstrates visual effects and composited Film and 3D animation in the previous six months. Despite some of the footage being a bit rough around the edges, I think it gives on honest expression of my work development to date.

VFS Vancouver Film School Showreel - Research

An incredibly high standard of 3D animation and film compositing comes from VFS, this is down to it's one year concentrated production work combined with industry led theoretical work.

I have began to notice a trend in visual effect showreels, they often show they layers of the composition being built up. This has given me some ideas about how i can improve my own composition. Unfortunately there is not enough time to edit my showreel in time for the presentation, however this shouldn't matter too much as I am planning on stay on for the third year

Creative Saints - Research

Creative Saints are a motion graphics design agency based in central London. We do 2D, 3D, live action, animation and compositing for a wide range of broadcast, advertising and production clients.

Saints began in 2004 when Nicky and Matt decided to work for themselves after learning their craft at some of their biggest competitors. They are nimble enough to work on any projects of any size. Their clients love that they can talk directly to their design teams. Giving consistency and that little extra quality control which they are famous for. They’re proud to be OCD (obsessive creative designers).

Creative Saints workflow consists of; animation, graphics, idents, character design, content, music visuals, title sequences, promos, adverts and film intros.

I managed to find a small section of interest on the news page of their website entitled, "Job Openings... We're always on the look out for experienced and talented freelance motion graphic designers. Please drop us an email with a bit about you and a link to your showreel. But don't send hard copies, we hate paper."

New Business Card - Development

The previous business card produced used a distressed font with a lens flare effect on it, which doesn't look very professional so I decided to design another. This looks more like something I would feel more satisfied with providing to a potential client. I'm not entirely sure about the blending options it either makes it or breaks it.

Showreel - 3D Animation/Film Editing and Compositing

I'm not entirely satisfied with all the footage on this showreel however this isn't such an issue because I plan to stay on for the third year. Between now and over a year from now both the quality and quantity of my work will hopefully increase. On the other hand I think this showreel represents the level I am currently working at. Room for improvement but not too dissatisfied.
