This is a collection of my personal work. Keep scrolling to see my other video content such as commissions, YouTube content and concepts!
VIRTUALLY US
(A social VR Documentary)
"VIRTUALLY US" is a social VR documentary project filmed inside of VRChat and Neos. The goal of this project is to highlight a handful of the amazing communities, creations and cultures that have formed inside of each platform, showcasing the true power of virtual reality technology and social VR.
Regret
(Short Horror Film)
A Short Horror film that follows a man mourning his dead wife, but what happens when she comes back to haunt him? Watch as he slowly goes insane.
VIRTUALLY ME
My second film project using Virtual reality. I made made to commemorate the 1st anniversary Porter Robinsons Nurture album as it is one of my biggest inspirations. The main focus of this project was to learn some VFX and I believe I succeeded in that, however, as time has progressed, I find that the film is a little over stimulating. This project taught me that sometimes simple and meaningful editing is more effective.
The film itself is about finding yourself and is an attempt to show my personal story of how meeting people online inside of the social VR platform VRChat during lockdown helped me overcome a lot of my personal hurdles and become who I am today.
Mr. Brightside (Music Video)
This is a music video I made as part of my film course. I was directed to make a music video and a website for a fictional artist.
The Thief
This is my first ever film project I made. Despite being dated, this comedy thriller taught me many valuable lessons about editing, directing and planning shoots. I still take pride in it today despite some of its minor hiccups.
Gone Virtual
Gone Virtual was my first ever venture into VR filmmaking. It follows the a plot set in a dystopian future full of lies and deceit by the fictional corporation Optik who make VR devices. It was made to learn the basics of how VR filmmaking can work as well as to comment on the current state of the media at the time (with some companies trying to capitalise on VR as the next big thing and trying to make it something it's not).
The
Other Worlds Project
Trailers / Teasers
The Other Worlds Project is a project by Digital Dreamscape and directed by TwoEzDragon (Ari) which aims to develop a fan constructed story based around Porter Robinsons "Worlds" album released in back 2014. The series of short films will be released in episodically with each covering one of the songs listed on the album (with possible exceptions for other songs by Porter if they fit the narrative).
Chapter One: A New World
Chapter One of "The Other Worlds Project", "A New World", follows a young boy called Kao who has somehow managed to survive a world destroying event. Will he find happiness in the baron wastes of the world? Will he be forever alone in a world that's his own?
Chapter Two: Creation Come Undone
Chapter Two of "The Other Worlds Project" follows an AI left behind after a great war. A war that seems to have wiped out almost all robots and humans. Built to protect and teach humans how to love again, the AI sets out to find her creator and understand how the war broke out. Where did things go wrong? Where is the young professor now?
The TwoEzMegamix Visualiser
This is a set visualiser mix I created for the opening of the VRDA Performance Stage in VRChat. It features a wide range of songs in which I created visualisers for using footage from all kinds of media across the internet. This project honed my VFX skills and allowed me to explore the creative side of editing!
TAKEN - A Short Horror Film
"Taken" is a short horror film I made originally as an intersection for a documentary project I decided to scrap. However, after showing a few people the rough draft I had, I was encouraged to finish the short and upload it as its own seperate film.
A Porter Robinson Tribute
A short tribute video to my favourite artist and biggest creative inspiration, Porter Robinson. Without Porter's music I highly doubt I would have developed the unique style I love so much.
Peak and Tranquility - A Ten Shot Short Film
Part of a challenge to create a short film in VRChat using only 10 shots in total.
My Inspirations
These are some of the films, TV shows and music videos that personally inspire me and my style for various reasons. Each of these pieces of media have had an influence on how I develop my digital content.

Porter Robinson-
Something Comforting
(Virtual concept)
a Conceptual remaster
of Porter Robinsons
"Something Comforting" created in VRChat using FBT.
I created this to test how well music videos such as this which require a lot of advanced movement, such as floating, could be translated into VR.
"The Dream"
Original short film
(Virtual Concept)
An original short film project worked on by myself and some other VR filmmakers, using virtual cameras and knowledge I acquired from creating the prior concept.
This was initially intended to premiere at the TVRS film festival however, the project is still very much in early development.
The Narrative follows a protagonist as they make their way through a loop of lucid dreams, a concept that lends well to virtual reality and the environments it can provide. Here we heavily utilised Full-Body tracking as a form of motion capture.
"The Last Of Us"
Virtual Concept
This is a concept video I created to hone my skills surrounding digital cinematic drone/aerial shots.
The VRC Camera is a very sensitive tool and often drone shots are incredibly hard to film due to the drones high speed and slippery controls.
This video was essentially a way for me to find a solution to producing slow, steady aerial shots in VR.
