David and Goliath; the classic biblical tale of man overcoming an impossible challenge. This was an experiment in blending a digital painted image with a 3D animation, with a composition so the sculpt could be kept simplistic. Animation used Adobe Mixamo.
Self Portrait Breath (EbSynth) - 2021
This piece is in the style of a classic chiaroscuro painting and intended to be hung and framed on a wall, but if a viewer stays long enough with the piece it is brought to life with a short breath and blink. This was achieved using EbSynth, a software which converts video into the style of painted keyframes.
Martial Angel - Animation - 2021
Similar to the above piece this is intended to look like a classical baroque-style painting but viewers who stay with the piece will see the angel hover slightly. The beat of the wings was modelled and animated in Blender and the movement and was recomposited with the other layers in Adobe Photoshop.
Alone on Mars - Animation - 2021
This melancholy piece was an attempt to animate in 3D a 2D painting. The narrative is of a female astronaut lost on Mars with her only companion losing power and nothing on the horizon. It was painted in layers on Adobe Photoshop, modelled and animated in Blender.
