Motion Graphics Final Render

Below is my Final Motion Graphics render. It was made using Adobe After Effects.

Character Animation Project

Here I have posted my Character Animation from my second year at University. We were given a character already rigged, and told to animate him to a small audio clip of our choice. I chose a clip out of the film Anchorman.

Uni Year 1

The things featured here are from my first year in University. They show the types of work I created in order to get a basic start for my Game Design work in the future.

Football Comic Strip

Game Cover designed in Photoshop (Before Gears of War 3 was released)

Vector Graph project of myself, created in Photoshop. 

3D Model of the Apollo 11 created in 3Ds Max. This model was used in my Animation Project that was based upon the Apollo 11 Moon landing 3D re-enactment.

Basic model of the Titanic with a water plane, created in 3Ds Max. It was used in my first game, where the player controlled the ship across the sea, avoiding the icebergs that moved from side to side. A future link will be given to this game at a later date.

These are both examples of Texture work. Using the stamp tool in Photoshop I created textures that are able to be tiled without a seem being visible.

This is the Apollo 11 Animation that I created for a Video Concepts project. I attempted to feature several different animation techniques within it. The 3D animation inside it is probably where I felt I excelled the most, as the stop motion is quite basic.

End of Year Animation Project. This animation was created in 3Ds Max, and all models featured within in it were created by me and Andy Fields. As our first fully fledged 3D animation we were fairly pleased with the results, although in hindsight it is quite slowly paced, and if done again we would adjust the speed to a more realistic pace. 

Gamification Project

This bit is about how we can demonstrate Gamification in other mediums. It was worked on and created by me and Andy Fields. We chose to use a Movie review app, with a point based system, that each user can redeem cinema related prizes with.
Below is a working progress of our app.

This is the final Animation for our Gamification Project

Mini Golf Game Levels

Last year, as my final project, I worked on a Mini Golf Game. We used a sports theme in an attempt to make it very different from other Golf games out there. Each level is uniquely themed around a completely different sport. It was worked on by two people, myself and Andy Fields. Below I am going to gradually post all of my level designs, and a playable version of the game. It will take time though, as I need to covert all the videos.

Motion Graphics Artwork

Currenty drawing out my characters in Photoshop for my Comic Book style Motion Graphics piece. It will be 30 seconds long, and feature a dark noir overlay to each scene. The camara will pan quickly from each part of the page, in order to keep pace with the music. The story of the clip will be betrayal. The drawings are done in Photoshop, and the animation in After Effects.
I have included some of my other research too!
