Showreel: Work in progress animations made in 2019 and 2020
Above Left: Screenshots and mock ups from work in progress animations. All 4K, digital animations. These are early tests for scenes, characters, dialogue and actions that I will work with.
Above Right: Video showreel of work in progress animations. All 4K, digital animations. Feel free to skip through the videos to get an idea of the work.
Above Left: Research images and test drawings showing my sources and working method. Including images of medieval and early Renaissance painting, marginalia from medieval manuscripts, medieval monsters like Gryllus (mischievous creatures with no body or arms) and Blemmyae (whose faces are on their torsos), and digital character sketches inspired by carved figures on stone high crosses found across Ireland. I want to expand my visual esearch by visiting the V&A in London, and the National Museum of Ireland to look at medieval metal work, stonework and manuscripts in their collection.
Right: Very early tests of vinyl paintings, showing digital drawings printed as contoured vinyl and collaged onto metal sheets.
Below: Contour cut vinyl stickers of characters from the animations, made in 2023 and exhibited at Nadir Project Space as part of the exhibition Crying Shame.
