Made a Top Gun inspired cinematic trying out some of the new features in Unreal 5.5, in particular the new sequencer and movie render queue updates as well as Lumen and Nanite, had a lot of fun and learnt a lot making it! vimeo.com/1079283336 #UnrealEngine #UE5 #animation

A selection of the hundreds of animations made for Age of Darkness: Final Stand as the Lead Animator, I worked with some amazingly talented people at PlaySide. Some of the animations shown are polish passes over the incredible work of Taliesan Arnold and Neeshma Sadanandhan.

Found some time to return to these soldier animations I worked on a few years ago, always fun to return with fresh eyes and apply new lessons, they certainly aren't perfect but happy to call them done and move onto better things! #animation #3Danimation #gamedev #gameart

Honoured to take the stage alongside the hard working people at PlaySide accepting the award for Technical Design for Age of Darkness. I’ve only been on the project for a few months but I’ve been welcomed with open arms, grateful for the opportunity to celebrate alongside them 🎉

One of the last things I animated for Age of Empires 3: DE was also one of the wackiest things I got to work on, Leonardo's Tank for the Italy DLC, very short turn around but a lot of fun! #animation #ageofempires #gamedev #3Danimation

Had the absolute pleasure last year to contribute to one of my favorite hobby brands since I was a teenager. I was able to take the full animation sets of these characters from proposal through to polish for Warhammer Underworlds Online. #warhammer #animation #gamedev
