…a little constricted.
The second of the supremely odd but hilarious Co-operative Bank TVCs via Blockhead. Another object lesson in ‘less-is-more”, which is strangely a lot harder than it seems.

…about to snap.
This one was all about the less-is-more approach. Bryan needed to exude menace, but if you’ve ever seen a real croc, you know they don’t really move much.
Until they bite your arm off.
Made with the kids at Blockhead.
…blowing in the wind.
Part two of the Impending Adorations diptych. It’s actually pretty joyful creating visuals of flying through the clouds, like some daylight lucid dream!
…floating in a dream.
So, I got talked out of music video retirement, and this gorgeous piece is the result. I had fantastic fun creating this underwater dance – this whole video has a look I’ve been trying to acheive for years.

A fun wee job via Toybox. Looked after character animation, lighting and render on this one.

…getting lost in a dream. Again.
This was a really refreshing piece to create – taking lovingly-rendered illustrations and building a story-world out of them. A collaboration with the wonderful Kieran Rynhart, who originally created a gorgeous cover for Rhian’s latest album “Stories From Elsewhere”. To create a video around this image, Kieran created a second piece based on the story we wanted to tell, and from these two artworks the entire video was made.
Imagery by Kieran Rynhart.
Music by Rhian Sheehan. “Little Sines” from the album, “Stories From Elsewhere”.
