Survivor Paddy

Around this time last year myself and four of my buddies went for a walk up a mountain in Galway for three days and I just recently got a chance to put together the footage into this slightly long winded account of the adventure. The start intro and the end (from about 12mins in) are about the best parts. I'm off to Kerry on Survivor Paddy 2 on Thursday can't wait!

Charlie Bird on the trail of Tom Crean - Titles

This was an interesting little project I got to work on last week. Once again created for Crossing the Line, (who, at this stage, are keeping my fridge stocked full of beer) these titles and maps were designed for a Charlie Bird programme where he retraces the journeys of famous Irish legend and explorer Tom Crean.

I enjoy doing title sequences and would hope to get more involved in this side of the business.

The Clara Bog Animations

Made in conjunction with the guys over at Crossing the Line Films this selection of short animated clips was created for an interactive children's information kiosk for the Clara Bog interpretative centre in Offaly. I was quite proud of this project as it is the first fully 3D animated work I have done so far. 

Here you can find a full article about the project complete with an image slideshow and a short making of. Below is a compilation of all the clips.

Crossing the Line


For the past few months I've been working with a television production company called Crossing the Line. They specialise in nature, travel and historical documentaries which are amazingly produced and are really high quality, world class television shows.

I originally got my first job with them to design a poster for schools which was in conjunction with the Wild Journeys series. They where so happy with this that they asked me to rebrand their logo, and completely redo their website and also create the Wild Journeys DVD which I was delighted to see in HMV over Christmas, they had put it on the 'best of BBC' stand though!

 

They are a great company to work for and I am thankfully starting a new project with them in the new year which I am pretty excited about as it is a 3D animation for an interpretative center in Clara Bog.
