I'm Mark Coory, a senior motion designer with over 15 years’ experience in the film and television industry across New Zealand and the UK. I specialise in 3D and 2D motion design, and post production management, delivering high-quality projects for top agencies and brands. I am comfortable across Adobe Creative Suite, Cinema 4D and Nuke, and I’ve worked on brand videos, in-store installations and digital campaigns for brands like Meta (Instagram), Converse, Nike and Versace, collaborating with agencies including Mother London, Adam & Eve, DDB and Ogilvy. Through Archie Studios I’ve freelanced on VFX and compositing for projects such as Apple’s Chief of War with Bunker Media, and I’ve also supported teams like Tavake and Department of Post. I’ve balanced freelancing with family life as a primary caregiver.

    uniE608 Showreel 2025
    A collection of my latest works
    uniE608 Bees Deliver
    Created for JKR, this project promoted the Bees delivery and automation platform across their promo site and social channels. Working from provided storyboards, I handled modelling, both 2d and 3d animation and compositing for the final piece.
    uniE608 Unilever - Everyday you does good
    I must have created hundreds of these five second social posts. Each one starts with a 3d model of a Unilever product then transitions to a 2d vignette detailing how each product helps local communities. Artwork was supplied externally
    uniE608 Meta - Keep the game going
    A Meta project promoting Instagram’s cross-platform sharing feature with game apps. My role focused on all car-related scenes, where I took on the modelling, rigging, animation, and compositing, along with creating the animatics for those sequences.
    uniE608 Boom Beach
    Created for Waste Studios, this social campaign promoted the mobile game Boom Beach. The brief called for a wireframe/blueprint aesthetic, so I developed the storyboards and animatic, then handled all modelling, animation, and compositing myself from start to finish.
