I recently bought my first Super8 camera. I also bought three different types of film. Colour Reversal, Colour Negative and Black & White Reversal. The plan was to shoot lots of stuff in different locations and in different lighting, to see what worked and what didn't. A lot of it was over exposed or under exposed, but some of it turned out alright.

Here's a video of some good and bad stuff with some good music.

Miss Remarkable & Her Career

2010-03-20T00:06:00.006Z

Last year I worked as an animator on a film called 'Miss Remarkable & Her Career' (Directed by Joanna Rubin Dranger) with A Man & Ink Ltd. It has just been selected for Annecy 2010. Above are a couple of images from scenes I worked on. Below are links to A Man & Ink's teaser trailer, and the 'Miss Remarkable' website, which has another trailer and a few clips from the film.

mike got spiked

2008-12-16T20:29:00.006Z

I made this picture for a t-shirt, for a band called 'mike got spiked'.

2008-12-01T23:04:00.005Z

I drew this as part of a pitch, with A Man & Ink Ltd, for a quick little segment to be played before each screening at this years Galway Junior Film Fleadh. It didn't end up being picked, so was never made. Oh well.

this is an edit of my graduate film. the reason i edited it, is because i don't like it as a film. it didn't work story wise. i wanted to put too much into it and i didn't have time.

so, instead of it never seeing the light of day again, i decided to edit it down to the bits i like. these are the scenes that i was happy with (well, relatively happy). they are in the order they were in the film, but this is not a film. so don't be disappointed when it ends where it does. i took out over 2 minutes of scenes that i didn't like. mainly the ones were the two characters talk to each other. hence, there being no dialogue. in fact there's no sound in it at all. i didn't want to re-edit and cut up all the sound effects and music. i don't think i'd know where to look for all the files.

so, it's a silent movie!
