For this brand I have worked on various projects from Social Reels to internal Hype Reels and TVCs. My task was not just to animate but also to edit storyboards, source music and find innovative approaches to movement in order to ensure a fresh and exciting look.

TVCs

Working out the perfect timing, as well as optimising image assets for TV display was crucial for this series of TVCs. This included trouble shooting interlacing and moiré patterns in order to ensure a smooth look. Below is an example of just one of the many TVCs that went live.

Web header animation for AMCS

Website header animation for AMCS art competition

The project aims to redefine perspectives around sharks and encourage protection for endangered species.

Working together with the web development team and retouching department, I had the honour of animating this beautifully designed header image for the Australian Marine Conservation Society. The idea was to capture the magic and beauty of the ocean by adding subtle movement such as incorporating bioluminescence, sun rays, and adding a gentle motion to the shark and ray.

Using Photoshop I created separate layers of the ocean animals so these could be animated in After Effects. In addition I experimented with various particle settings and plugins in order to achieve the desired effect for the bioluminescence.

Challenges

One of the challenges was to create a seamlessly looping file that was short and compact in size for web publishing. The background had to be supplied as a separate layer and needed to be flexible around the edges to allow cropping for different screen desktop and mobile screen sizes.

The challenge was to enhance engagement in a series of pre-recorded educational videos about home loans by infusing creativity and making the content more entertaining. This involved brainstorming quirky ideas to captivate a younger audience, researching appropriate stock footage and graphics to complement the narrative, and seamlessly integrating them into the videos. To achieve this, the elements added required careful editing and rotoscoping to ensure they integrate cohesively with the original footage. The entire series included over 21 videos, however below are some selected examples.

The client was looking for a creative animation to promote their product offering. The brief was to work out a concept for the oil animation and tie top & tail together visually.

My work included researching suitable video footage of oil that can be included in the animation. I also planned out how the elements should animate and transition to the next frame. I provided the client with multiple options to choose from.
