Who
is this Darren Price anyway? A 3D animator who has
been working in London at Nexus
Productions and has now returned to Sydney, Australia.
Nexus?
I've heard of them. Yeah, they're pretty amazing.
Clients include Honda, Coke, Renault and Motorola.
So,
another Australian in London? Darren and his wife
were on a round-the-world backpacking adventure. When they got to
London they kind of got trapped by great jobs. But Sydney has called
them back with its beautiful people and ugly politicians.
How
long were they in london? Almost five years. Softly
and Darren lived in East London with their li'l son Iggy and the
new boy Baxter. They bought a house and got really comfy.
Now
back to Sydney. What does Darren do? He animates
using a computer. He works In 3DS Max a lot, and uses a computer
pretty much every day. Its all pretty hard to explain...
Wow,
computers... yeah, yeah, everyone's got one. He's
been really enjoying painting backgrounds in gouache for his 'Potapych'
movie... and using a computer to fix them up.
Potapych?
Darren received a generous grant
from Channel 4 and Blackwatch to direct and produce a short film.
