After completing the Audiotraffic commercial, i was eager to use the same black
and white technique again. After a few hours of messing around, i turned
to AnD for inspiration, and found it quite quickly in the form of everyones favourite
language tool, AskBenny.

So i started, first recreating each individual piece of Benny.

Then doing a few test renders to see which Benny worked best.

Then i started putting benny in some pictures

and finally i animated him being constructed.

Oh did any of you guys notice the audiotraffic commercial didn't just feature audiotraffic?
It also featured two AnD crew...

Actually it nearly featured three, but his scene got the axe....sorry Patrick

With Will being in Beijing, i also created a special logo to celebrate

Ok have to get back, just started working on a pretty big project for one of the
AnD famliy..........oooo i can't resit showing a tease.

Mathew Blaize was born in 1980, Stoke-on-Trent, England. Despite being named as the worst City in the UK, he never let this hold him back. A fan of Hong Kong films from an early age; it was this passion that led him to pursue a career in film. When he left school, Mathew went straight to college; it was here he began experimenting with film, producing short animations which garnered cult status within the area.

In 2000, Mathew enrolled in a Bsc. course in Film Production technology, garnering various production techniques (Non-linear editing, directing, Animation etc.). Examples of his work are still shown to this day at Staffordshire University as part of open/enrollment days.

Since leaving University, Mathew left for a trip to Hong Kong, there meeting with local producer Bey Logan (The Medallion, Gen-X cops) with who he remains in contact with today. There he discussed film projects, scriptwriting, and showcased his film making talents. He also spent time on-set of the Adventure One documentary 'I want to Be Jackie Chan'

In 2005, Mathew completed his first feature film 'Jon Three-One', described as 'Battle Royale’ meets Starship troopers', and released it onto the internet, it went on to receive cult status among internet users and film fans alike.

A lover of Hong Kong’s music videos helped in 2005, when HK boy band (!) ALive requested fan created content, Mathew jumped at the opportunity, and created a 3D animated MV for the band, resulting in applause from both fans and ALive band members alike.

In 2007 Mathew completed his recent feature 'Jon 2' a sequel to 'Jon three-one', which will soon be appearing 'exclusively on the independent filmmaker’s website www.iklipz.com He has also contributed content to the UK based TV station SumoTV, and also spends his spare time writing screenplays.

Mathew's ultimate goal/lifelong dream is to one day live in Hong Kong and work in the Hong Kong movie industry

"Hong Kong movies have given me so much; I look forward to one day returning the favor"
