Synopsis

My girlfriend Dee joked that she has made her legendary chocolate biscuit cake so many times now that the ingredients could make it by themselves... We made this to promote Dee's entry in Chef Factor, a great Irish Cookery Competition run by Cully & Sully. Sorry, voting is now closed. Thanks to all who voted (and all who tried after the deadline too!) A first attempt at stop-motion, and it took a full week (2,485 photos and 2 panning videos) to shoot and edit. Shot on a Canon 550D and edited using Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop and a hell of a lot of coffee!

• Bio: My name is Alan Travers and I'm a 28 year old amateur film-maker. I have a Degree in Information Technology and English and a Higher Diploma in Systems Analysis. I hope to return to college soon to complete a Masters in Creative Digital Design either in the Dublin Institute of Technology or the Media Design School of Auckland. I shoot my films using a Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ-28 and a Nikon D3S (that I occasionally “borrow” from my dad), although I hope to soon purchase a Canon 550D. I edit using Adobe Premiere Pro and I complete the post-production using Adobe After Effects CS5. I hope to work professionally in digital media, in visual effects compositing post-production, web media or broadcast media. I am based in Galway, Ireland.
