Graham Collins - HD Videographer, Video Editor & 3D Animator in Vancouver, BC

About Me

Welcome!

This is the portfolio website for Graham Collins, an experienced videographer, editor, and former broadcaster from Vancouver, BC Canada.

During my years in the financial services industry I acquired extensive business experience pitching concepts to clients from a wide cross section of industries across Canada.

When I graduated from Vancouver Film School at the end of 2010 I added a number of new skills to my creative toolkit along with a Digital Design diploma with Honours.
My objective is to find opportunities to work on projects that combine my diverse range of experiences with my newly acquired 3D modeling, animation and design skills.

Please contact me today to see how my unique skills can benefit you, your clients and their customers.

While the Canadian Museum of Flight in Langley BC had many still photographs of their restored vintage aircraft, they didn't have much air to air video.
I volunteered to create an in flight video of the flyovers of the beach in White Rock to celebrate a spring regatta.
All The Cards was a video I created for the BC Civil Liberties Association.

The BC government's plan to combine and share data among various ministries and their outside contractors raises serious privacy concerns.
This is a title sequence that I modelled and animated in 3D for a prospective half hour television situation comedy called When I'm Sixty-Four. My concept was for the back story of the main characters to be acted out by doughy figurines on top of a multi-tiered cake.
If technology is so rapidly evolving then why does it feel like our ability to connect and communicate is devolving?

I created this music video for BronweN's song Eden quite a few years ago before I knew anything about After Effects. The only software used was Adobe Premiere and Photoshop so all of those edits are either simple cuts, dissolves, blurs or opacity changes.
This is a clean render of 3D subway car that I modelled for an assignment at Vancouver Film School. Later I grunged it up and used After Effects to fine tune the animation and compositing of the multi car train as it breezed through a subway station without stopping.

Videographer

Full HD Digital SLR & Mini-DV

If you need the full range of pre-production skills I can create the concept, write the script, draw the storyboards and audition the talent.

During production I can light the scene, direct the talent, record the audio and shoot the footage. Of course if you only need some of these services I do play well with others.

Digital Editor

video & photography editor

From the simplest retouching of blemishes in a still photo to editing a complex montage of video images, editing is one of those skills that if it is done well you usually shouldn't notice it.

Basic image editing can also involve simply transferring images from physical form to digital.

3D Animator

Logos, titles & more

Maybe you're looking for a 3D version of your logo, or graphics and titles for a project.

Perhaps you have an object you want modelling and/or animated. 3D is becoming increasingly popular because there is no doubt that 3D brings another... er, uh... dimension to a project.
