Wellington Water Resilience System Explainer.

Wellington Water infrastructure resilience project. Completed as part of a wider education campaign on what to do if there is ever an earthquake in the Wellington region and how Wellington Water is preparing for when one occurs.

I had lots of fun animating on this project as there was allot of character animation to do, something which doesn't happen everyday in my current line of work.

Animation and Post completed my myself, Pre production completed by PORT Group Ltd.

Wow, where did those 4 years go?

Turns out starting a family really does mean you have almost no time for extra stuff. So what have I been up to? Well allot actually, I have been continuing to get freelance work and have completed several projects that I want to share as I find that they have been released to the general Joe public.

Here is a project from last year for the Department of Conservation. All of the design and  pre-production work was done by the amazing people at Port Group.

Examples of my work, Childrens book Illustration.

I recently completed a freelance job to illustrate parts of a series of children's book's which the author wanted to include with his manuscript when he submitted it to the publisher. 

Below is one of the completed illustrations. 

Children's book Illustration.

To give you an idea of my process for this drawing I have outlined the stages that all of the illustrations went through after the initial quote for the job was accepted by the client.

The first step was to go through the manuscripts text and to come up with visuals for each of the passages, these visuals where discussed with the author and adjusted as required for the story.

Next I drew up a rough version of the chosen passage (the client asked for certain passages to be illustrated) in pencil for approval by the client, if there where any changes needed to the drawing they would be made next, again going back to the client for approval before moving on to clean up. 

After final rough approval I would then clean up the drawing getting rid of any unnecessary detail or line work. After clean up the drawing was scanned and painted digitally and finally sent of to the client for colour approval. Again if there are any changes needed these would then be made before final approval of the completed colour illustration.

Examples of my work, 3D Desktop Graphics.

For the last 2 years I have created the graphics for use at South Seas Film and Television school on their computer desktop profiles.

In 2012 the theme was the 20th anniversary of the school's opening.

This year I wanted to mix it up and to represent the re-branded colours of the school.
