StoryBoards-Animatics-Rough Cuts
Here are a collection of storyboards, animatics and rough cuts of the short films I worked on during my time at ATU Donegal.
Project 1: Batman V Gandalf
For my second year short film, the brief was "game", I decided to animate a short fight sequence between two Lego figures that I own. The idea was that the battle was what a child envisioned it to look like. Based on the games I would play as a child. Given more time I'd like to polish out the stop motion section but the 2D animation section I am proud of.
Project 2: Travel awards
In 2nd year, we entered the Travel Awards competion. Working in groups of three or four, my group focused on the benefits on walking and cycling on overall health. I did the animatic and storyboards for the group, as well as animating a small section.
Project 4: Encore
For my third year final film, I had to produce and animate a 40 to 90 second short film. I chose to do a conceptual piece based around my experience with circus. It's a non-linear narrative that allows the viewer to come up with their own narrative about it.
Project 5: See It Hear It Speak It
In 4th year we were task with reaching out to a charity to offer to work with them to produce a short animation. I reached out to the charity Aoibhneas, a domestic violence support charity for women and children. They agreed to work with me in producing three shorts to encourage people to speak out against domestic abuse.
Project 6: Handprints
For my graduate film, I wanted to celebrate human creativity by comparing ancient cave paintings to modern artist. 'Handprints' follows a young burnt out artist who finds a cave with ancient cave art and finds himself inspired.
