My Dad the Evil Genius
Evil Genius is finished and online! (YouTube+Vimeo) I animated this cartoon in-between various other animation gigs. It's the story of a young boy called David and his Evil Genius Dad (Ed) who's trying to destroy all the humans with his evil robot army. Patrick Ytting did a fantastic job with the 1950's monster b-movie inspired score, it fits into the cartoons style of raw bloody violence, ailurophobic robots, electrofried monkeys, stupified cats and heart felt emotion.
Hope you like it... You can never have too many evil robots!
Animated & Directed by Benjamin Wigmore
Music Composed & Arranged by Patrick Ytting

Zombie Fried Monkey...
This is a render of the EVIL ROBOT 360° from my new cartoon "Evil Genius". Originally the cartoon was going to be 3 mins but extra characters and changes to the story has extended this to 5 mins. I'm finishing the final act but there's still a lot to do with animating a zombie fried monkey, an army of evil robots and some kick ass explosions!
I'm also gonna re-animate some of the opening sequence and some character shots cause they don't really match up with the later stuff I've done.

Cakes, Dust and Lines
For the last month and a bit I've been working for iLoveDust in London on an animated commercial for an American drugs company.
The project involved tracing over video of actors in flash and compositing in after fx which took time, patience and a lot of cakes!

The Elephant and Man Short

In the process of making a new short starring an elephant and a Thudercats sword! The short is gonna be on my YouTube channel and I'll post it up here when I'm done.
Here's a link to my only popular vid on YouTube called Baker Day. Inspired by Charlie Chaplin I made Baker Day when I was 16 years old using the only application I had that could do animation, Macromedia Director 5.0!!!
