Welcome

Hello and welcome to Chipper Ditty dot com, the new home of Tyler Francis, a graphic and web designer kind of guy.

This page is more or less just a landing page for the sake of having a landing page, a space that will soon be populated with more interesting things, like whatever you have actually come here find.

Until then, you can find some of my work on my other portfolio site.

Thanks for stopping by, and have a blessed day.

Video commissioned by the church I attend.
The idea was to explain to the whole congregation why a collage- specific ministry is important, and what we try to do with that ministry.

Written, shot and directed by Tyler Francis.


Software Used:

  • Adobe After Effects for the blue squares at the beginning and the blue waves at the end
  • Apple Final Cut Pro for all of the capturing and editing of the video and audio




So I woke up one morning, stood up and threw open the windows
to take a throat-clenching whiff of good ole fashioned, Florida grade
second hand smoke. Deciding that was a bad idea, I went into the
kitchen and fumbled around for the bag of vaguely chocolaty flavored
off-brand rice-y-o's and thought up some ideas for a nice sixty second
animation. Remembering a song I made a while back in Sony Acid 5 or something,
I figured I'd animate some kinda stick man character running about
to the style of my music. Sounds good. After a long, hot bath,
I decided this was a better idea. I like this song. 


Software used:

  • Adobe Illustrator for the design and creation of all the assets
  • Adobe After Effects for the assembly, animation and editing of everything else



Took about 20 total hours.

I guess I got most of the idea from the portal icons
and a bit from game and watch (who has one of the more lame final smashes, I might add)

Software used:

An advertisement I did for fun, targeting the "leet haxorz" out there.

Music is "It's All About the Pentiums" by "Weird Al" Yankovic

Software used:
  • Adobe Photoshop for the texture creation
  • Autodesk 3DS Max for applying the texture and animating the camera
  • Adobe After Effects for the text and audio/video editing




Another video done for fun, this time I was experimenting with keying
out "imperfect" backgrounds like my bedroom wall full of shadows and
uneven texture. I think it worked out pretty well for a first time.

Software used:
  • Apple Quicktime Pro for video capture
  • Apple Final Cut Pro for video editing and key process



Episode 100 of a fake podcast, made for the sake of recording my
desktop and editing it together with my voice, face and different music
tracks. Also made to show off how I made one of my favorite illustrations.

Software used:
  • Screen Flow for desktop recording
  • Adobe Illustrator for the initial Wii rendering
  • Adobe Photoshop for the on-screen editing
  • Apple Final Cut Pro for the final video editing
