    Hello there! I’m Justin, a Melbourne, Australia-based motion graphics designer and video editor who creates content from the ground up, including storyboards and style sheets.

    uniE608 Tailor Birds - Stilts on the Water - Music Video
    I worked on and off for several months in late 2020 with Tailor Birds, experimental indie musicians with a chill ambient sound to create both the full music video and the trailer seen above. They created a 40-minute song, “Stilts on the Water”, and they wanted a video inspired by the painterly CD cover and the idea of chaos, the struggles and the positive change which can come from it. This would play over the full length of the song. Drawing from the cover art and the song’s soft, eclectic sounds, I worked extensively with them to create a dreamlike, relaxing worldscape, using imagery to convey a subtle story of dealing with repressed grief, coming to terms with forgotten memories and moving on to newfound possibilities. Using provided paintings, drawings and independently-sourced stock footage, these were heavily edited and mixed together to form painterly, Monet-inspired collages which gradually drift into different scenes. While there was much back-and-forth between each other, we eventually created a full animation which exceeded their expectations and created something “beautiful”. As a result, they would send it to the Melbourne International Animation Festival, and I was brought on to create a trailer for social media channels. It has been well-received so far. The full video is here (behind a paywall): https://www.twine.net/signin If you're looking for something dreamlike and painterly, we can work together to make something just like this... --- Feel free to contact me: Instagram: https://www.twine.net/signin Facebook: https://www.twine.net/signin LinkedIn: https://www.twine.net/signin…
    uniE608 The THRIVE Project - How Can We Quit Plastic? - A Thrive Talks Podcast
    Part of a series of videos I edited for The THRIVE Project, an environmental organisation that seeks to inspire a world where we all live in harmony with nature. The aim behind these is to highlight experts in the sustainability space, and inspire others to make changes in their lives, while creating content that anyone can understand and be inspired by. To this end, I've edited their footage, and created motion graphics elements and thumbnails.…
    uniE608 Loop De Loop: Instrument Of Your Destruction!
    A video for a looping animation challenge, it aims to parody the exaggerated and overblown cheesiness of 80's cartoons. This colourful romp, created in After Effects, uses smear frames extensively to create a sense of movement. If you're looking for something lighthearted and full of movement, we can work together to make something just like this... --- Feel free to contact me: Instagram: https://www.twine.net/signin Facebook: https://www.twine.net/signin LinkedIn: https://www.twine.net/signin…
    uniE608 Friends of The Earth - Act on Climate Campaign - Launch Video
    A video for Friends of the Earth's Melbourne chapter. It involved working with other Friends of the Earth members to provide their voices, while I created the motion graphics (sounds, music and live-action footage came from royalty-free sources). This social media video aimed to drive "Act on Climate", a postponed 2020 campaign aimed at convincing Victoria's State Government to commit to further reducing carbon emissions, to keep temperatures below 1.5 degrees (avoiding the worst consequences of climate change). Originally, I was asked to create a video to mobilise their supporters, and those who already agree that climate change is an issue. However, we discussed about using the video to expand the AoC support base as well. For many, there is a perception that focusing on climate change will damage the economy or their livelihoods, especially in rural areas. To this end, this aims to show not only the urgency of acting on this issue through both an economic and environmental lens, but how working together to fix it can also preserve the livelihoods of rural communities and create jobs. To this end, rather than forcing the issue immediately, it takes a three-stage approach: 1. Hook audiences: Ambient sound and bleak imagery aims to visualise a ruined world. No words or narration are heard during the visuals, to let the imagery sink in. 2. Introduce the problem: By emphasising the effects on communities, and providing a target to galvanise audiences around, this helps get audiences on board for the solution. This approach is taken over presenting facts, as in social media contexts, seeing facts audiences don’t agree with can often reinforce their existing views instead of convincing them. 3. Provide a solution: Only now, once the problem has been set up, is AoC’s message said, and potential solutions are presented. This is meant to be brighter and more hopeful in contrast to the previous scenes, creating a contrast between the bleak visuals of climate change, and the bright colours of a world where audiences stand together in this aim. The greater reliance on live-action footage aims to emphasise this contrast. While the COVID pandemic prevented the campaign from going ahead, they were pleased with how the video portrayed their message. Did you know: -The narration is spoken by several different members of Friends of the Earth; it aims to create the sense of a community coming together to present this message, rather than a single individual dictating how audiences should feel. ------------------------- CREDITS: Music: “Leaving Home” by Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Voices: Narration: Various Friends of The Earth members. ------------------------- What do you think?

    Created for a looping animation challenge, it aims to create an engaging little video centered around this adorable little slug creature in a cartoony world.

    uniE608 Lachlan Phipps - Backstreets - Music Video
    "Keep dead quiet, but most of all, don’t stop moving no matter what..." Created for music production student, Lachlan Phipps, this song is part of a concept EP about a ragtag resistance facing off against a totalitarian government...and the horrors of war. Made for the track, "Backstreets", using After Effects, it aims to capture the chaos of war, and the desperation of survivors trying to regroup after a hopeless battle. This relies extensively on 2D shapes built into 3D forms, combined with lighting effects to create an expansive, dangerous world where danger lurks among the ever-searching torchlights of faceless soldiers... If you're looking for something dark and tense, we can work together to make something just like this... --- Feel free to contact me: Instagram: https://www.twine.net/signin Facebook: https://www.twine.net/signin LinkedIn: https://www.twine.net/signin --- CREDITS: Visuals by me.

    uniE608 What’s That Thing In My Coffee?
    This forms part of a loose narrative series of 20-second videos about the lifeblood of Melbourne, coffee. I created the vector drawings and animated everything, while the sounds and other images are from royalty-free sources as listed below. The idea is that each piece, based on the end of the previous one, explores a different aspect of coffee, in this case, how this "liquid inspiration" wakes us all from our zombielike slumber each morning, and transforms our bland and empty day into an oasis of possibility! :) What do you think? --- CREDITS: Images: pixabay.com, pexels.com, stocksnap.io unsplash.net Music: "Inspired", “Dreams Become Real”: Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ Sounds: Several of the sounds were released under the Creative Commons Zero license.

    uniE608 Paradise Lost: Cyberpunk Thriller Movie Trailer
    "In the far-off year of 1999, a dark secret would change the world forever." With this trailer, I wanted to use motion graphics to not only convey a cinematic narrative, but immerse viewers in a futuristic cyberpunk world inspired by 80's sci-fi works. Made in After Effects, 2D shapes are manipulated in 3D space to create the 3D worlds seen in the video. From the expansive detailed cityscapes, to the dark constricting corridors, all were made with this method.
