The Fly

My team is putting the finishing touches on my latest animated short, 'The Fly' which is a music video for a song by Benn Ross. I have some exciting news about it, which I will be announcing soon. In the meantime, here's a still from the film.

Nocturne Halifax 2013

Here's some animation I did for an exhibit at Nocturne Halifax 2013. It is part of an 'exquisite corpse' being put together by Copernicus Studios, which will feature many animated clips of the same character done by different animators. To see all the clips you have to attend the Nocturne Arts Festival!

Transformers Painting 1: Mirage

G1 Transformers 'Mirage'

So I am going to be doing a painting of Mirage and Soundwave fighting each other, and to prepare I am doing a portrait study of each character, first before I compose the action scene. This is Mirage, the Autobot that turns into a Formula One car, and has the ability to turn invisible.

Onions - the final phase

I've officially started the final phase of my animated short project with Silöen Daley, titled 'Onions'. Most of the film is stop-motion, with a part that is traditional 2D. The goal is to be done before the end of the summer.

Board Game Artwork

This is an illustration for a boardgame cover. The game is really fun - it's in alpha testing right now. It's darkly humorous, and I hope that comes through in the artwork.

***Addendum***

I did some revisions and here's a v2

Stormtrooper

Here's a GIF of a stormtrooper run cycle. He's getting chased by Han Solo and Chewbacca through the Death Star. I guess he dropped his gun...

Devil Whipping

Explodo, the Hilarious Exploding Clown

It's not really violent. The Clown explodes, so it's funny.
