GeeFX Studios - Animation & VFX

Recently GeeFX Studios uploaded a range of showreels showcasing skills in design, animation and motion graphics. I'm pleased to see some of my work has made the reel and thought I'd share it here. GeeFX has made other reels including work to do with sports, entertainment, documentary and corporate. I've worked freelance for this company for over 13 years and I'm proud of everything we create.

Perks of the Job

Watching Jungle perform "Back in 74" live on Jonathan Ross Show has to be the highlight of the chat show season.

Big Breakfast Cartoons

Recently for The Big Breakfast show I was tasked with creating cartoon illustrations of presenters AJ Odudu and Mo Gilligan in the style of the classic children's books by Dr Seuss. Here are the results...

It's ChuckleTime!!!

ChuckleTime Titles from BenJamin Wigmore on Vimeo.
ChuckleTime is a clip show on Channel5 featuring English comedy legends Paul & Barry Chuckle. Various funny clips are mixed in with classic Chuckle Brothers humour. GeeFX Studios Creative Director Graham Clarkin tasked me with making some appropriate wacky titles with a cartoonish/Monty Pyhton feel.

Addition: I was very sad to hear of the passing of Barry Chuckle on August 5th 2018. The Chuckle Brothers were the first comedy duo I ever saw on TV and they had a great influence on me. They had perfect comedy timing and ChuckleVision was a big favourite of mine when I was younger. I'm thankful that they gave me this brilliant introduction to comedy at such a young age.

BBC World Cup Titles 2018

BBC World Cup Title Sequence 2018 UHD from Rob Whitworth on Vimeo.

Very pleased to have worked on the amazing BBC World Cup Titles made by BAFTA winning film maker Rob Whitworth and GeeFX Studios. I looked after the Russian Doll Sequence and the painting in the Saint Basil's Cathedral which required a lot of rotoscoping and photoshop work. The end result is a fantastic eye catching sequence that is very unique.

GoodBye Thames LONDON STUDIOS: The Graham Norton Show Crew 2007-2018

After working at London Studios for what seems like a lifetime it is sadly closing. I will miss these studios and most of all working with so many freelancers and staff. It was difficult to come up with these few words but photographer Steven Fuller said it better with his great photography of LS than I ever will.

Sheridan Smith ITV Special

GeeFX Studios recently worked on the screen graphics for the Sheridan Smith ITV Special. We created visuals alongside directions from ITV Producers, Lighting and the Director Chris Howe. Great project to work on and Sheridan is such a real genuine talent!

And we're back!!!

Back creating graphics for Graham Norton Show and Jonathan Ross

Time Crashers

 Logo work for Channel 4 production of Time Crashers. We ended up building it in more of a steampunk vibe but I like the classic design look inspired by clocks, watches and spirographs.
