More shots from The Boer which is at 75% completion, just an epic montage and a bit of colouring to go!

Some more shots of I've animated/animating from The Boer. Production is going swiftly and 2/5 of the scenes are virtually completed.

These are my animated shots of the wife from Scene 1 of The Boer. Using Toonboom.

The Farmer's Wife

A Toonboom colour test for The Boer, Alex and I thought it was best to finish a short shot so others can understand the look we are going for in order to recruit some minions to help with animating/backgrounds.

I'm aiming to actually finish a sketchbook full of drawings, I have a great habit of starting them and using the rest of the book for rip out pages - starring Clint Eastwood, Felix Baumgartner and MJ

The past week I have been working on animatics for the Boer

This is one of the final scenes I put together in premiere pro, editing is something I enjoyed doing last year for the title sequence project and I am pleased to be going through the process with more knowledge on the software

Today I found out that my 3rd Year Project has come to a stop. I was annoyed at first because I thought I would have the chance to improve on my work with the feedback I had from the pitches. However I'm feeling more optimistic now, as I have the chance to work on the projects I enjoyed hearing about at the pitches.

Here are just a handful of developments from my project - I started with more realistic characters and a story that was constantly reworked a hundred times.

2 people inspired me to have a go at this project, Sergio Leone and Clint Eastwood. I love the western genre and when their names were tied to the title, that film was instantly on my watch list.

When it came to writing a script, feedback from lecturers clashed as I never knew if I was meant to stick to the spaghetti western style of script or that I had to create an ending that was the opposite, and new for an audience. This was the weak point of my project.

I'd like to thank my home boy, Alex Papanicola for helping me improve what I had with some awesome character designs and concepts.

So now without the weight of a project I'll be able to 2D animate for others that require me, I can learn some 3D animation which I wouldn't of had the time to play with as a director, and I will experiment with my own small projects that will be updated on here.

Level 2 Animation Show Reel - Work from my second year studying animation, a lot of these backgrounds are white, they will be updated once the artists in my group have finished them. I aim to update this over the summer from personal projects I have started working on.

I've been able to put my Maya practice work to good use as I'm making a few assets for the Patsy short film. This is where the magic happens.

I struggled with Maya last year so i've started following some tutorials on the youtubes to have a go with modelling. I built myself a little american house to live in.
