DIGIPOST-FOUR-net.jpgLeading post production house Digipost has again enhanced their VFX offering adding two creative talents from the UK and a new Flame suite to their Auckland facility.

 

Senior Flame artist Richard ‘Ritchie’ Betts joins fresh from seven years of creative graft with London top shop The Mill.  Betts’ memorable work has traversed the globe.  His impressive credits include the likes of Nike ‘Evolution’, Sony PlayStation ‘Mountain’, Mercedes ‘Clouds’ and music clips for cult heroes Prodigy and Bloc Party.

James ‘Jimmy’ Corden also spent time at The Mill before becoming a hit on the London freelance circuit.  Corden’s gun-for-hire Flame skills have been in high demand with the likes of MPC, Glassworks and Absolute.  His credits speak for themselves, including international icons Sony Bravia ‘Play Doh Bunnies’, Nike ‘Ronaldinho’ and music clips for global pop icons Madonna and Kylie.  Corden joins in a senior role also.

 

The arrival of Betts and Corden brings the total of senior high-endspecialists to four, a strategic move by Digipost designed to boostcreative edge, depth and diversity.  The Brits join award-winning StuBedford and the equally talented and entertaining Paul Dickson.

Says Digipost GM Stephen Douglas: “We’re thrilled to welcome Ritchieand Jimmy to the team. Our ‘Gang of Four’ has to be the most creativeand experienced in the region…now I know how Manchester United feel!”

The British invasion coincides with delivery of the new Flame andseveral companion Flare systems, and an array of other VFX softwareupgrades.
