This is the project our studio made over the summer. Technically it's the first official project myself, Alex and Ben have made as a studio, and it was made for Trinity College and Ballyfermot College as part of their new Animation Hub scheme.

Student Media Awards '10

2010-04-23T02:35:00.000-07:00

I'm thrilled to say my thesis film "The Artists" won the Animation of the Year award at the Student Media Awards. It was fantastic to be nominated with such talented people, and a great honour to win. Thanks to everyone for their kind words and support.

Cad e Sin don te Sin

2010-01-11T05:14:00.000-08:00

In the months coming up to Christmas, myself and Ben Harper had the great opportunity to work with Cartoon Saloon on a project called Anam an Amhráin. The project involved new animated visual interpretations of old Irish songs. Ben and I worked on the song called Cad e Sin don te Sin, from storyboards, design, modelling/rigging & animation to the final render. We animated the characters in 3D and the backgrounds were done through Photoshop. Tomm Moore helped throughout pre-production with feedback on the story and with the character designs.

Below is a clip from the finished piece:

The songs were screened on TG4 (Irish TV) over the Christmas period and it was great to see them in full quality on the big screen. We both had a fantastic time working on this project, and once again I'd like to thank the guys at the Saloon for the opportunity.

Clips from the other Siogs can be seen on the Cartoon Saloon site here.

Blip

Below is my 3rd year student film that I made with Ben Harper. It's been nominated for a Smedia award and is being shown in the Galway Film Fleadh this year. We like to think of it as a pilot for a kids TV show, and will be producing similar work in the near future with similar themes and characters.

(UPDATE - 12/07/09)

I'm delighted to say Blip came first in the Best First Animation category at the Galway Film Fleadh.
