Motion Graphics and 3D
Motion graphics | Animation | Explainer videos
A key area of my work is producing motion graphics and 2d/3d animation. The types of work I’m often involved with include broadcast tv motion graphics, green screen work, corporate animation, explainer videos, 3d product visualisation, 3d virtual worlds and superimposing graphics/3d models within video footage. I have been privileged to have had my motion graphic work broadcasted on Channel 4, S4C and the History Channel.
I use Adobe After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator and Cinema 4D for my motion graphic and 3d work. I also own my own portable green screen setup, including a large walk on screen, lighting and autocue.
Some examples of my motion graphic and 3D work:
