Commercial Animation

 

Arnotts

This was my first animation job at Filmgraphics. The biscuit was created in 3D at Animal Logic and tracked and replaced over the hand-drawn version.


Mister Sheen as Elvis

I animated the 30 second ad and had many different incarnations of Mr Sheen to play with. It was a very enjoyable job.


Mister Sheen as Puppet

The sequences of Mr Sheen as the Puppet were traditionally 2D animated by me, then that animation was used as position keys for the 3D animator.


Strongbow Cyborg

Animating the Strongbow commercials allowed me to stretch my Manga arm.


Stongbow Blowtorch ("Handle With Care")

This was the second of the two Strongbow commercials I animated. Stills were taken to create a comic for the print ad.


Vodka Pulp (Jasmine)

Jasmine is the DJ in the club. Finlandia Vodka Pulp, or Pulp Friction as we titled it, was my first job as Animation Director. I did the storyboards, layouts, character design, animation and music direction for this 45 second cinema ad, and was very happy with the excited stir it made in the commercial animation industry.


Vodka Pulp (Todd and Tigerlily)

This scene was edited out of the 30 second cut-down for television, because Tigerlily scratches Todd's stomach and creates blood welts, before grabing the Pulp bottle from Todd's hand (which is nestled at his crotch). The sequence was deemed to risque for television.


Vodka Pulp (Pearl and Nova)

This is the animation still I chose to represent the Finlandia Vodka Pulp Ad. To me it says everything about the spirit of the commercial. I loved working on this style of ad.
