Special for Tidy Productions and S4C. Directed by Ed Talfan. Produced by David Peet and Ruth Jones.

This series required a lot of greenscreen and other compositing work to make the most of the location and train sets. I assisted the VFX by compositing new skies, placing members of the cast onto the roof of the carriage, building a number of matte paintings to extend the shots and adding spot effects where necessary. More images and information to come after broadcast later this year.

TV series by Rondo Media and Avatar Productions for BBC. Starring Sanjeev Bhaskar, Ayesha Dharker and Mark Williams and directed by Tim Whitby and Deep Sehgal. Produced by Tom Ware and Deep Sehgal.

Created matte paintings to return the now green valleys to the coal-choked 1960's. Removed various modern elements from the frame and added footage of 'The Heiress' to a cinema screen for the first episode.

Short film about William Blake's first print exhibition. Directed by Ryan Andrews and starring Ray Winstone. Digital Shorts Wales 2010. The majority of my work was adding digital backgrounds of Soho in London outside the windows of Blake's shop and exhibition.

VFX Supervisor and Compositor for a two episode pilot for ChannelFlip and the BBC, directed by Ryan Andrews and starring Jamie Lennox, Louis Waymouth, Jaime Winstone, Robert Llewellyn and James Cordon. After a collaboration with director Ryan Andrews on his It's My Shout film in the summer of 2009, I was brought to the project to supervise the London-based shoot and the later greenscreen session. I then spent two weeks completing the compositing for the project, totalling approximately fifty shots. The final episodes were premièred on the BBC iPlayer. This was an amazing project to work on, not least because of the incredible people involved and how welcome they all made me (being the newcomer to the party.)

Cinema trailer for the National Theatre of Wales' production of John Osborne's The Devil Inside Him. I was VFX supervisor and compositor for the advert, keying the greenscreen footage and adding the 3D environment with a smoky spotlight. I also combined a number of takes to make it seem like different sides of the actor's personality were trying to break away from his body. The advert was directed by Ryan Andrews, lighting by Viv Thomas and Ceiron Jenkins, with the titles animated and rendered by Alan Morse. Filmed on a Canon 5D at Ceiron's Elywood Studios. Sound design by Jeb Hawkins.

Black Tears is a video installation by the Irish artist Cecily Brennan, cinematography by Seamus Deasy. Cecily contacted me through friends who had seen my work on Reign of Death and was looking for someone to rotoscope an actress' real tears to make them look like they were black ink. After a moment's hesitation, I thought the challenge was too good to pass up so I agreed to do the work. Everything was completed in Adobe After Effects using Mocha-AE to track the actress' skin.

The second series of Grandpa in my Pocket for Adastra Creative and CBeebies, for which I was VFX supervisor and digital workflow manager. This series was commissioned on the strength of the first, which had been a massive hit for CBeebies and became one of the top rated shows on the channel, as well as the BBC iPlayer. Little of the workflow was changed but the number and the complexity of the shots increased so that we completed 1051 VFX shots overall, including a large number of moving and interaction shots.

Short film directed by Matt Savage and starring Noel Clarke (Doctor Who, Kidulthood). The film is a tech noir thriller about a private eye chasing down a robot near the scene of a murder. Shot on the RED camera, it was heavily graded to look like a noir film of the 40's yet features a considerable number of visual effects, not least Jimmy the CG robot. I was VFX Supervisor on the shoot and VFX Producer during the six weeks of postproduction.

The 2009 VFX and General Showreels from Dinamo Productions. Both feature shots from our work from the past three years and the music was composed by Arron Selby. These are the first I've edited in HD and it's great to see them in full res on Youtube. Enjoy!

A comedy drama series for CBeebies from Adastra Creative about Grandpa (James Bolam) who possesses a magic shrinking cap. His grandson Jason (Jay Ruckley) is the only one who knows about the cap and, when nasty Aunt Loretta (Susan Jameson) comes round for tea or a bully is causing trouble, Grandpa shrinks to help Jason win the day. However, things don't always go to plan and Jason has to help Grandpa get out of quite a few scrapes. This series is an inventive blend of greenscreen and CG visual effects to help bring the wild world of Sunnysands to life. I was VFX supervisor on the show and oversaw not only the shoot itself but the completely digital workflow that enabled the production to complete its nearly 850 effects shots in three months.

Based on the award-winning book by Caryl Lewis, Martha, Jac and Sianco is about a sister and two brothers living on a failing farm in mid Wales. It's an allegorical tales about the decline of the Welsh farming industry and, despite its somewhat downbeat subject matter, was S4C's Christmas film for 2008. I had worked with director Paul Jones on O Na! Y Morgans and Con Passionate and Dinamo were tasked with creating a number of subtle by important effects for the film, including make a cow bite off its own udder. Not a showreel for the faint-hearted!

A blend of fantasy, horror and action genres, Mutant Chronicles is about a mission to rid the world of the terrifying mutants who are disturbed from their slumber under the earth by a deady world war. Directed by Simon Hunter, the film uses a large amount of greenscreen photography to create a wartorn world on a low budget. Dinamo were brought the project by Llyr Williams, who had previously worked with Simon on a seven minute promo reel in order to sell his vision to the producers. Llyr did most of the work on the project and I helped him with a lot of the keying and compositing late in production.
