2D Animation

Valentine



This one is for my wife, who has been my constant support over the last eight years. I would not be here without her. I created this Flash animation for her on Valentines day 2014.

Rocket Birthday



This 2D Flash animation was created for my son's 3rd birthday. He loves rocket ships, so I built him one.

Marty The Meteor



This animation is the first Darkworld Productions short animation of summer 2013.
This one was a big first for me as I recorded myself using a digital recorder for the catchy/annoying as hell song. In hindsight, I won't be recording myself like that again, the voice edit was too high pitched. I thought it would be funny at the time... It was not.

Origin



For my college project, I was asked to make an animated map of one place to another. To create a journey of some kind, simply to demonstrate I have the ability to export my short project correctly and upload it to youtube.
This animation is a journey from the beginning of the universe until current day.

Gully Takes Christmas!



Gully came back in his third animation to date. He had taken out Mario and Master Chief. Next on the mad birds hit list? Santa...
This was my first holiday based special animation.

Moon Gazer



This short animation is dedicated to my mother in law Susie, who has supported me and my ideas for years. I am very grateful. Susie really likes the concept of a moon gazing hare and loves the song greensleeves. I put those together for a happy birthday video for her.

Halo Gully



When I created Super Gully World back in July 2012, I didn't expect it to be as big a hit as it was. It was unexpected. Naturally, on that feedback, I wanted to make another Gully animation. Gully had destroyed Mario's Mushroom kingdom already so I brought him over to the equally iconic Halo universe and set him loose.

The Ramp 2



Tractor recieved a sequel in the form of The Ramp 2. This time, I focused on Tractor using a tried and tested method of travel. Nowhere else will you see a big green tractor strapped to a rocket attempting to jump over a stunt ramp...

Arc Angel - Nightmare



My second 2D Flash animation with my Arc Angel Character. This time he is up agianst some demons that swarm him from the darkness.

12th August 2012
Fairytale Falls



The sequel to Fairytale Glade, this animation incorporates 3D animation using Autodesk 3DS Max. This the first time I'd ever combined both 2D and 3D animation.

Super Gully World



In my area there are huge Seagulls that go around attacking wheelie bins and looking angry all the time. These terrors were the basis for Super Gully World. What happens when one of these brutes takes on the famous Mushroom Kingdom from the Super Mario series by Nintendo? All assets created by myself in Photoshop using in game screenshots as a reference and animated in Flash.

On Patrol... - Part 2



This one was created for my son Ash. Back then, he had a love of dinosaurs. Part 2 of On Patrol... is the result. Created using Flash.

22nd June 2012
Fairytale Glade



This one was for my daughter Kira. She has always been magical to me, so I wanted to create something magical for her. This 2D Flash animation was created for her.

Jonboi's Birthday Animation



With the success of the Grandad Hendrix animation, I decided to do a similar project for my friend John's birthday. This version is a HD export created in Flash.

13th May 2012
Grandad Hendrix



This one was for my Grandad's birthday. He is a big Jimi Hendrix fan. As I was getting more confident in my Flash animation skills, I decided it would be a cool idea to have him play guitar as Hendrix in a 2D animation.

8th May 2012
The Ramp



The Ramp was is still one of my favourite creations to date. Starring Tractor, the agricultural daredevil wonder and his futile attempts at making it big on the stunt ramp. Created using Adobe Flash.

3rd May 2012
Arc Angel - Hellwalker



This Flash animation marks my character Arc Angel's debut into the world of the moving image. I attempted to create a walk cycle for him as he walked ever onwards into hell. Again, before I knew anything about walk cycles...

6th April 2012
On Patrol...
 
 
On Patrol... was my first completed personal Flash animation project. Dino, my main character is also my first 2D animated Flash character.
 
3rd April 2012
Fire Safety
 
 
This was my first completed Adobe Flash animation. I created this short during my NQ animation course at college.
 
22nd May 2011
UnderEarth
 


 
This is actually a remake of an even earlier video I made in 2008. I created this before I attended College and before I knew anything about animation using scanned hand drawn images that were coloured using a paint program. Those were the days!
