A New Directing Showreel

For the first time in ages I have been asked to produce a directing showreel because I am up for a big directing job which may happen in the summer. As ever, I can't say to much about it on the blog, but its all looking pretty good. Of course I may not get the job so I'm keeping everything crossed!!

I have added some scenes from my first feature Written in Blood, the Kaleidoscope Man pilot and some shots from Chris Jones's Oscar shortlisted film, Gone Fishing, on which I was 2nd Unit Director. I have also added a taster from my documentary films as I wanted to show that I have worked with some big names on some diverse projects.

I find making a showreel tough as its hard to be objective about ones work.

Anyway, I hope you like it.

Some Early Pre-Viz FX Shots For Kaleidoscope Man

This is a selection of some pre-vized special effects shots from the opening sequence of Kaleidoscope Man. The shots are finished now and some feature briefly in the trailer. But I thought you might like to see this as it shows the level of planning that goes into CGI work just after the shoot and before the real animation begins.

The CGI work was done by Screenburn Animation.
