The Great Martian War project was the favourite project i have worked on over my 30 year career in the animation and VFX industry so far. It combined many of my favourite elements, History, Sci fi, HG wells, Mechs and creatures. I remember posting the Edit of our VFX work back in 2013 on vimeo in order to share with just a few people who worked on the show and wand was amazed when i woke up the next day with over 100,000 views on vimeo and later gained a Staff Pick award. was super exiting to see people connecting with the edit that was actually just intended to be a show reel piece for the VFX work
This work opened up a lot of opportunities and i'm super grateful to the team we worked with on the project.
