Tutorials All Up

Tim Hawker — Mon, 14 Mar 2011 21:13:30 +0000

I’ve finally got round to uploading all the tutorials I have written. Hopefully you’ll find them useful! I’m planning on writing a few more tutorials in the future, so if you have any requests feel free to contact me.

Next on the list of things to do is add some scripts I have written, which I’ll do hopefully sooner rather than later.

Thanks for reading

An Eventful Eight Months

Tim Hawker — Mon, 14 Feb 2011 18:35:03 +0000

Recently I graduated from Staffordshire University with a 1st Class Honours Degree in Digital Film and 3D Animation Technology. After graduating I was offered a job at Framestore CFC as a runner, and during this time I met some incredibly talented artists working on magical films such as Harry Potter (Apologies for the awful pun). After chatting to a few seniors I was given the opportunity to test my tracking skills for the 3rd Narnia film they were currently working on. The shot was approved and is now in the film! (All two seconds of a background character… but still pretty cool)

While I absolutely loved working at Framestore, being a runner was not exactly the job I had aspired to be doing, so I sent out a few applications to some local companies, and was offered a job at Burrows. I have now been working there for 6 months and have really enjoyed the laid back and friendly atmosphere. (Not to mention the dual quad core, 16gb ram workstation!) Burrows mainly works on car advertising, so expect a few car renders appearing on this site soon!

Moving into the working world has been a really fun and enjoyable experience, and I wish everyone reading this who is currenly studying CGI related courses has a very similar experience.

Thanks for reading.

Website Design Complete

Tim Hawker — Sun, 13 Feb 2011 16:34:11 +0000

After spending quite a while fine tuning this website’s new looks I have come to a design that I am very happy with. Fingers crossed you like it too. It’s got all that fancy content management stuff on the back end thanks to wordpress so it’s a doddle to maintain, what a nice change!

I have uploaded most of my work and tutorials, and will upload the rest when I have a chance.

Thanks for reading.

New Website!

Tim Hawker — Wed, 05 Jan 2011 16:00:30 +0000

I have just upgraded my website to use wordpress rather than typing everything up in notepad. Please bear with me while I figure out how to use it :)

I’ll put the tutorials back up as soon as I get the chance.
