BAFTA WINNER!
I should probably fill in some gaps on my nonsense acceptance speech and thank Gabriel Silveira for his beautiful illustrations, Harriet Gillian and Sabine Volkert for the ridiculous hours they spent on this job, they went so far above and beyond I will be eternally grateful for their incredible animation and creativity. I did manage to give you guys a shout in the interview, and I hope everyone who watches it makes it that far through our ramblings!
Looking back through those ramblings I also didn't mention Callum O'Reilly and the incredible work he did on the composite, each scene features hundreds of layers of animation which he expertly integrated with all that 2012 Paralympic footage. By far his greatest achievement was being that steady hand I so desperately needed when the shit hit the fan and I was too frazzled and sleep deprived to give reasonable direction. You are a joy to work with.
I've been at Jump for nearly 10 years now and far from becoming part of the furniture, they have nurtured me, listened to me and helped me through some of the toughest days of my life. It is an honour to work for such a kind and loving company.
Richard Norley is the reason I joined Jump, his creativity, passion, perseverance and guidance are an inspiration every day - thank you so much Richard for your belief in me and allowing the creative freedom that keeps me excited and passionate about my job
