So…I haven’t posted in a long while. I’m 25 and bit weeks pregnant and have only in the last few weeks gotten over a period of super sensitivity to computers and television. It made it very difficult to work on projects, I can tell you. This was apart from a rotten bout of morning sickness [...]

Off to Adelaide on Tuesday to do some comp fill in for the guys. It’ll be a hard week, but great to catch up with my favourite chaps.
The husband and I got iPhones today. Well, I did lose the my other one (not an iPhone) in a taxi. Not. Losing. This. One. But having a [...]

2 haiku I wrote while in Scotland in 2005. I just found them on the back of a post-it note I was about to recycle…
scottish heron hunts
silhouette, moonlit water
unlucky minnow, caught!
green instant captured
accidental deer surprised
from the shutter, flees!

Armageddon like weather today in Sydney. Woke just before 6am to a Mars-like red streaming through the blinds.
Back to Graphic Design work after a short stint at RSP. I was working on a few shots for the T4 DVD release and a crazy stereoscopic shot for the Michael Jackson film ‘This Is It’. I think [...]

It’s been a little while. For the last 3 weeks (and for this week) I’ve been back working for Rising Sun Pictures (in the syd office). Those who know me will know that I’ ve been wrestling with robots, giblets and bloodspray. The late Saturday night which all to quickly turned to early Sunday morning [...]

Been a speedy and productive week. Spent today teaching/assisting at AFTRS for the VFX Supervior Course at Fox Studio. A mixed bag of young cinematographers and compositors. An interesting day—having to explain colourspace off the cuff is ALWAYS a brain melt. There is a reason I write copious notes on the subject—the students need them [...]

It’s nice to have the time to totally unwind. Being able to unwind about vfx work allows me to enjoy the arts and design going on around me. I’m getting quite the arty network too. Kate Hopkinson-Pointer is having an exhibition opening tomorrow night at her gallery Gallery@28. That should be fun, I’ll be taking [...]

So I have my mobile back…YES! But with my old phone list. I did get my awesome graffiti photos back too. Phew.

Continuing with the website for Sophie Howarth, it’s getting close now. A bit of text from Soph and the tricky choosing of photos (lucky I don’t have to do that! They’re all amazing). Here’s [...]

So, a few things have got me going sketchy-design wise…my husband, who gets into his own animation projects when he gets home, Cut & Paste which seems to be a ‘watch’em design!’ bake-off and the website that I’m doing for Sophie Howarth (awesome photographer!).
Sophie sketched/doodled all these hand drawn elements for the site graphics and [...]

So I washed my mobile phone this morning. Walked into the kitchen to hear a strange bumping in the washing machine. Investigate. Disaster. How the f*#k did that get in there? Bugger. Going to have to deal with Optus. Sigh. Optus, with in the first 20min are confusing, almost deliberately misdirecting and refuse to try [...]
