This Sunday Shakes had its second premiere screening at the West End Film Festival and it took home gold for the first time, winning the Audience Choice Award for best film.
I’m happy to have worked in the post-production department of with such a great creative team and it was a pleasure seeing my visual effects work up on the big screen. Director Jason Fitzgerald had such a clear and creative vision driving each VFX shot with precision and care which together made every on-screen element flow perfectly together. I’m happy to see the short production get some recognition.
Shakes will continue its festival run later this year at the Long Island International Film Expo
Shakes Continues Its Run in the Festival Circuit.

It’s exciting to see my visual effects work traveling to so many festivals and for the film to receive so many good reviews across its screenings.

Shakes Short Film | Official Selection in the West End Film Festival
Last year I worked as lead visual effects artist on a quirky Brisbane short film called Shakes and it has just been added to the official selection for the 2017 West End Film Festival.
Shakes is a great story about an anxious man overcome with a mental disorder and the story follows his ordeal trying to break through his barriers with others.
This will be the second year running that my work has been in the selection at the West End Film Festival, following the 2016 short The Bus Knight which I crewed as editor and visual effects artist.
