Well I can't just animate all the time(even though I am supposed to be), so when I wasn't animating I was doing some rendering. Getting there, I still have some work to do. These shots have the grade that I like, trouble is that is got loads of banding, not great, but I do love what it does with the subtle colours and blooming.
Little bit about myself.In a previous life I was a chef. I was lucky to work with great people and learnt how to cook.I however it was my not great love, and after many years in hot kitchens it was time to change. I went to animation school at Media Design School in Auckland in 2001 worked hard and managed to graduate with Distinction and an industry award for Modeling. I was then lucky enough to be picked from an international search to be the intern for the Art Department at National Geographic Magazine in Washington D.C. I was working with the art directors. It was a fantastic time.
I then taught 3D for awhile until I was hired at Binary Star, a start up game development studio as Lead 3D. This was a great year and with a top team we won Best Startup Studio and Best unsigned game at the Austrailan GDC.
After this I was drawn into the world of TVCs. I went to Yukfoo in Auckland as Lead 3D and am lucky to work with a great and talented bunch of people.
After this I went to Weta Digital as a Assistant Technical Director in the shots department working on Avatar. This was amazing, and culminated in running 3 shots for Avatar as Lighting TD.
