'Sweet House' (White Night 2010)

(Starts at 0:10) I created a short animation for White Night in collaboration with BANG animators group. The project was called 'Dream Machine' with projections played upon the front of Marlborough house - and the concept was that dreams were escaping! There was a lot of brilliant animation by very talented people.
For my animation I decided on the illusion that the house was filling with sweets. Since I only had a few days to work on it, I decided on a simple style. I photographed sweets rotating, and then animated them in Adobe After Effects for a 'stop motion' effect.
It was only when I watched the films projected on the building 'canvas' that I realised how much further I could have pushed ideas for greater effect - maybe in a future project!

Competition


Some work from a collaborative entry for a Nicktoons competition, based off of an idea by my friend Gail. They asked for a 20 second tv ident to be made within a short period of time.


Red Riding Hood project stop motion project.
These are stills from a film I did 3 years back, using paper cut-outs of 2-d anaimation. The idea was of the Red Riding Hood fairy tail escaping a book, I'd like to do something new in this style using classic black and white children's book illustrators as an artists reference.
