We had to create a press kit for our films. This would be used in festivals and for the press to find out more about the creator and the film itself. Here’s what mine looks like.

Film edited and complete!
Was ready to finish my film and get all the exports ready right after completing the comps, but when I read over the brief, I noticed that we needed to create two separate mono WAV files; 1 for dialogue and 1 for SFX and music. This was a problem, as the mix I was using…
Compositing finished!
I’ve finally finished all of my compositing and I’m incredibly happy with the result. Ed and Richard were a big help in helping me figure out what I could do to enhance my scenes. Yesterday I had a one on one with Ed, and he was impressed with the cartoon and how well I did…
Film Evaluation Topic
For our evaluations, I originally thought it was a generic evaluation talking about the production of the film but I was wrong. I was told to set a topic of my film that I would discuss and analyse for my evaluation. I picked character design and created a few headers for different paragraphs. Evaluation Topic…
First act comped!
I was able to get through the first few scenes of the film, adding shadows and lighting mainly. For a few scenes, I added some colour overlays to make the characters fit into the scene more, along with some blurs in the background for depth. I’m really happy with he look of the ATM scene,…

Animation complete!
I’ve been working a lot which meant it was difficult to get the animation complete on time, however I was able to to take a week off and got it finished by the deadline.I was quite behind and was worried I wouldn’t get it done on time so I pulled an all nighter on the…
Skills Audit & SWOT Analysis
For this assignment we had to develop a skills audit and a SWOT analysis of ourselves. We’ve done these before during our HND course so it wasn’t anything new to make. I came up with design ideas pretty quickly and sent them to my lecturers who were overall happy with the designs. I then sped…
Global Pandemic & Lockdown
There was news over the past few months of a virus going around China which stirred some concern for people but overall we felt pretty safe about the whole thing until recently. Very quickly the COVID-19 Virus went from an epidemic to a world wide pandemic, and although we all have high spirits, it’s become…
