In creating a shot list, I found it was easier to mention the involvement of others than to list my involvement. This is simply because for most of these projects I did everything. Nearly all 3D modelling, texturing, rendering, compositing, design and motion graphics on my reel was created solely by me. So the following is a list giving credit to others who had involvement in these projects. If it’s not listed below, it means I created it. The only exception to this is, obviously, royalty-free imagery. For example the USA map at 41 seconds. If you would like more details about any of the projects, feel free to drop me an email!
