Primeval Series 3 Shot Reel

June 23rd, 2009

I have to say it’s quite long video and a big file! It was around 6 mins, I chopped it off to 3.5 minutes thanks to suggestions of Nicolas Gueroux :)

It was a really fun project with many talented people. I found the chance of working in an extremely fast pace but still trying to produce the maximum quality with the given time. It’s a very good thing though. You really learn how to adapt your tricks in such an environment.

Also it was great to work on different type of creatures almost every other month. So sit back and try to be patient while watching it since it’s 3.5 minutes long :)

New Project

March 12th, 2009

Hey All,

After wrapping up Primeval 3 in mid of January, I moved to Where The Wild Things Are. It’s a really interesting film and I know there are many people out there looking forward to seeing this one. Working on this film is really cool because there are many things going on in characters’ mind set and it’s a great challange to reflect this!

Btw Primeval 3 is looking very good! We have done so many shots in such a short time and it was a great team to work with. Lots of energy and good mood! So stay tuned for the next update about Primeval 3 as well…

My photo is published!

Happy New Year…

January 15th, 2009

Happy new year to all… I hope this year will be superb for all of you. When you consider the economic crisis and stuff, I hope everyone is safe and doing well.

Unfortunately I was so busy on Primeval 3 and then there was the christmas break, I couldn’t find enough time to put up online my Narnia shots. Hopefully this week some point I’ll upload them.  This is the last week of Primeval and the vfx looks great! I’ll put some updates on that as soon as I am allowed to…

 All the best…

Now I’m getting into the dangerous waters of real close-up macro photography. This was one the first pictures I got with my Tamron 90mm and set of Kenko extension tubes for more magnification. It’s really tricky to get the focus right and I need to work more on it! But it’s a lot of fun and in the end it pays off :) Enjoy…

Golden Compass Shots…

July 20th, 2008

At last I uploaded my shots on the bear fight sequence. I was only responsible for main characters Iorek and Ragnar. Sadly, one of my shot was cut from the film and my last shot was chopped 80 percent so I decided to put playblasts and original version… Enjoy!
