September was Madness!

Wow, what a few weeks! It's all going on. Right so, a few things to catch up form below. The 'secret' Aardman project is due to be released in December and has been signed off by some major people so I'm extremely happy about that. I still can't say what it is but I can sat that I have co-written, co-directed, filmed and co-edited it . Watch out!

A more recent Aardman job which gives a firm nod towards good old fashioned fun and throws production values clean out of the 3rd floor window has been for Wallace & Gromit's world of invention. The site went live a couple of days ago from the good people in Aardman digital. I was brought in to help with my good friend and above mentioned co-director Ricky for a 'different' project.

Unfortunately it did send me a bit mad, here we are....failing... at 5 in the morning! Click the image below to load the piece.



And heres the contraption working, hooorahhhh!





More recent work has now bloomed, this time in the form of promotional material for the forthcoming 'Paranormal activity2'. This was with Team Rubber. I worked on edits for the supporting site http://www.paranormalsurveillance.com/

Here are some of the edits:

I've been working over the weekend for a project for team rubber which has some seriously cool outputs! Stay tuned for more as and when it gets released.

Aardman calling!

So I'm back in aardman again this time for a few weeks. I'm not only editing but directing as well on a really exciting and unique project. Only problem is I can't say any more as its a secret project but I can say that it will be brilliant! More to come!......

Long time, no see!
