- Teachers TV Migration Promos / Ident
I’ve recently just finished a collection of promos and Idents for Teachers TV, to help inform their viewers of the migration from telly to strictly internet. The challenge was to present this move as a positive thing, and not dwell on the negative. We soon came to the conclusion to have avatars within Teachers TV graphic land, informing the viewers.
I am quite happy with the overall key, grade and animation etc… although there’s always room for improvement.
- Site down temporarily
Due to a freak accident…
on the server that hosts GO, I lost the entire site for roughly a month. I have only managed to get it back up and running, and still fixing broken links and uploading content. Luckily for me, the site is relatively new, so I hadn’t lost too much.
This Unfortunately means I have permanently lost my old site, which cannot be retrieved. New bits coming soon. JG
- Nike ‘Hit the target’
60 sec Viral with Rooney and Torres
Time Based Arts hired me to develop Laser beam animations for integration into Nikes latest viral commercial, directed by Anthony Dickenson featuring Wayne Rooney and Fernando Torres.
We immediately set out developing a system based on Anthony’s vision for how a geometrically and visually pleasing laser target system would work. Once this rig and system was in place many 3D passes where rendered, with which TBA made look beautiful and added the polish they’re so renowned for.
Including the lasers, Time Based Arts also asked me to develop the control screen animations for Torres’ shots, which they oversaw and meticulously integrated into the shots.
- New Website Live
To celebrate a new decade…
here’s the new graphic onions website, created in WordPress blogging thingy. Which was surprising easy to set-up (2 days compared to the 2 months the last one took!)
My old portfolio site is still live and has a lot more work on it from 2009 and before…
click for the old work
Edit due to the server crash Jun 2010, I have lost the old site. So it really is a case of ‘Out with the old and in with the new!’
