I thought I’d share this with you all. This is an example of a easy technique to create a colour palette for what ever project you happen to be working on (web pages, print jobs, logos, etc). The image below kinda speaks for itself but basically find an image you…
Handed over all the graded footage of Last Flight (short film set on Mars) yesterday. When I agreed to grade this I was thinking it would be easy, just put a red wash over it right? Boy was I wrong! As it’s been shot in lots of locations all over…
After completing a real site I decided to create something a bit more surreal. [update] I wasn’t that happy with the post processed lens blur in my original version of this image so I re-rendered it with a raytraced DoF Blur. I also spent a bit more time in photoshop creating…
For a while now I’ve had a portfolio on Cornucopia. The other day I thought I’d throw an image up there of a project I’ve been working on. In my opinion it’s not the most impressive work I’ve done however the people that run the site thought otherwise and selected…

I finally got around to finishing off the Sunset ID. Done in Vue (a while ago now) and then reworked in Shake. I love Shake, why-o-why has Apple abandoned me!
I spent Friday & Saturday last week at Creative tech, an Apple-centric conference held @ AUT here in Auckland. I’d been asked to be part of a panel of apple users to talk about how we use apples in our professions as an event to wrap up the conference. First…
So stoked!!! Last week I did a picture for a comp on Cornucopia, the home of Vue content and users (not sure how they are affiliated to e-on software but they are in someway). The theme was “Beach and Seaside”, I seldom enter these comps, but was up for the…
Lately I’ve been very occupied with my research project on digitising the complex form. You can read my paper which was written with some help from Brett Orams (section on procedural modelling in Max) and Nikolay Popov (on cellular automata) Download PDF here. Note that this paper is still in development…
