This website was developed for a one-off night to be held at Jersey Potteries (Jersey, Channel Islands) that features Vula (the voice of Basement Jaxx) and is sponsored by Veuve Cliquot and supported by Mark Howe and Gallery Magazine.
It was designed & developed pretty quickly and relies heavily on the awesome 3D renders created by my buddy at The Observatory, Ollie Harris.
I’ve recently been involved in a website/presentation/video project for the great folks over at Le Masurier Ltd (Jersey) for a proposed development at the north end of St.Helier, Jersey. The site is now live and along with a full press release and social media strategy, this should draw a lot of attention so fingers crossed that it’s well received! Please go to lmbathstreet.je to check it out for yourself, and if you’re a Jersey resident, search for lmbathstreet on facebook to join the group.
I’ve just had an Honourable mention from Nick Campbell over at GreyScaleGorilla.com for my Countdown vid (displayed on the previous post). Thanks to all of your comments via Vimeo and cheers to Nick for starting the 5 second project idea, as well as to Jim for egging me on to enter!

This is my effort for Nick Campbell’s 5 second project “Countdown”.
The basic premise for 5 second projects are that you create an animated piece lasting 5 seconds around a central theme and upload them to let everyone else see your work. It drives you to quickly create something that’s throw-away but still requires you to think about a concept and finish it through to the end result – I highly recommend if you’re working the field of animation, or just looking to start, get involved in this.
Took about an hour from start to end, working in Photoshop to deal with the elements (old screenshots and sprites) and animated in After Effects. Audio was boshed together in Premiere from some old 8bit game samples I had. Finally rendered in H264 QT using Adobe Media Encoder.

Here’s a quick look at my latest work – it’s a render in C4D using an illustration by Paul at The Observatory.

Muzzle flashes/cartridges and comped-in explosion were my responsibilities but not colouration I hasten to add – this definately needs some work but for a few days playing around, it looks alight. Oh and the ident was quickly made for FIF as well…
Stay posted for the final piece when it comes up online.
When it comes to Web Startups in this day and age, it seems we’ve all been approached by someone who ‘has this amazing idea that’s going to revolutionize the internet’ but turns out to just want to rip off youtube, facebook, twitter, etc.
A lot of the time someone will want to develop an idea that has had all the large details mapped out but none of the small details. Take a leaf out of 37signals book (literally) – it’s better to make half a product than a half-assed product.

They wanted something that would include all previous information, which was quite text heavy, but bring it closer to their print literature as well as being attention grabbing.
At last minute they requested a voiceover, so one was done in office after hours with one of their employees and then passed through various filters to polish it up and digitize it a bit.
A quick showcase of what PfA Consultants are about.
They act as consultants for the Percentage for Art scheme in Jersey (CI) that asks developers to spend 1% of their budget on art for the local community, be it sculpture/artworks/installations/etc.
For something that isn’t mandatory a lot of developers are participating in the scheme which is great for local artists and the island in general.
