My second year film at that I made at the University of Central Lancashire. Watch it small screen on Tumblr, Vimeo didn’t take the lighting and contrast that well, or the quality. Keeping it small will help to keep it looking prettier!

Please let me know what you think!

I will also write an evaluation soon, about what I don’t like, what I do like and things I have learnt!

One of the Animations my brother has been working on in his second year of uni at UCLAN. Looking forward to what he produces in the third.

3rd years (Communication and MINT), the collection of images and information for the We Made a Show website has begun but (as you can see) not many people have submitted yet. This site will look great with everyones work together and be a good taster of what is to come at the show. 

A drop box has been set up for everyone to be submitted to (I believe the login has been posted on Facebook) if not you can ask Tash, myself, George or Megan (or anyone else who has submitted), the sooner work comes in the sooner the site can go live and start promoting the show. 

What you need to submit is in a document in the drop box.

Just done a bit of updating to my Behance and Prosite. TypeChess and Book Binding are now both included, have a look if you like:

Pre game pieces set up. Not a great photo, but it demonstrates how the board looks before a game.

Example of how the eBook function with sliding bars for the tools and the illustration. This has been condensed from a double page spread in the book to a single page on the eBook. This app means that (if I wanted to) get it to a winder audience than a limited run of books, although it doesn't have the same feel to nor work as well as a book about a book, but it will, in the future allow me to film the production of a book binding session and include video tutorials for each step.
