There is a wide diversity of techniques that we use to achieve the effects in a commercial.  I will show some of these methods and the job structure behind our work using examples from some of our latest projects.

After studying Electronic Origination Andy worked as a Colour Retoucher in a printing bureau. It was not long before his love for animation got the better of him and he left printing to work as a junior animator.  He worked in South Africa for three years before leaving for London and getting a job at Glassworks, where he was Senior Animator for four years. Andy left Glassworks in September 2003 to join Framestore CFC's 3D commercial team where he is now Head of 3D.
