Absolutely everyone in London all at once

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

The diesel viral ended up getting around 9.2 Million views. I like to freak myself out by imagining all these views happening at once, in one place. Imagine absolutely everyone in London all at once. Now stop and make sure you’re including everyone. It blows my mind.

4.1 Million hits and counting

I recently directed the animation on a viral project to promote Diesel jeans’ 30th birthday. The piece entitled ‘Safe For Work’ was directed by Keith Schofield with myself and three animators here at my studio Biganimal working for an intense 10 day period to disguise 90 seconds of hardcore porn and make it safe-for-work!!

I drew almost all the assets, with each element drawn 5 times, a technique called ‘boiling’, which gives the animated elements more energy and life. You can see the whole animation HERE.

Jump Button Wipeout Interview

Wednesday, March 26th, 2008

The interview I did with Jump Button column over at video game weblog GameSetWatch has been posted. The piece is a discussion about my work on the Wipeout Pure PSP game I designed a level for some time ago. The direct link to the interview is here. I was able to ramble on about how much I loved designing the track and how I’d love to do more game design. If anyone needs a game designing, I’m your man!

Hi! I’ve just been back to 1985 in my time machine and taped the credits to the detective show I used to star in. Unfortunately my VHS player chewed the tape but I managed to save this fragment, sorry for being such a tease!

Hunt My EGG

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008

My friends at MOO have decided to have a bit of fun over the next two weeks by holding a worldwide Egg Hunt.  They have hidden eggs in their products, their site, their friend’s sites and in the ‘Great Outdoors’.  Each day there’ll be new eggs to find, with clever clues appearing in their blog.

 

There are some great prizes to be won including MOO discounts and freebies, Flickr pro accounts, Blurb discounts and freebies, Etsy discounts or gift baskets, Timbuk2 discounts, Ponoko ’make’ discounts, Styleshake dresses and Picnik premium accounts.

 

You can also play to win the ’Ultimate Egg Basket’. This contains a selection of wonderful goodies, including a digital SLR, a range of MOO’s partner’s prizes and a selection of English treats. There’s also a very cute handmade bunny, crafted by Kim, one of the *real* people at MOO.

 

To take part, and to find out more, head over to http://www.moo.com/egghunt/

I have hidden an egg somewhere on my site, can you find it?

If you need a clue, the egg is clearly on show. :-)

ALLOW IT!

This truly is where the magic happens. Not since Han Solo gave a guided tour of the Falcon did anyone reveal to the public such a hot driving seat. GOOD BIT.
