Mike Tosetto Motion Designer

About

For many years I've been a digital media generalist working on design, web, interactive, video and motion graphics projects.

Over the last couple of years I've focused on motion design involving video editing, animation and 3D. I've mostly worked on TVCs, animation projects and corporate videos. My most recent promo animation was featured on numerous Vimeo channels, including the highly regarded Wine After Coffee channel.

I'm currently employed full time as a Senior Motion Designer for Interbrand, a multi-award winning studio in Sydney and the Campaign Asia-Pacific Specialist Agency of the Year for 2011. Interbrand works with a variety of brands including Telstra, Alzheimer's Australia and Griffin Theatre to name a few.

I'm also a co-founder of Bestia, a three man collective made up of a visual designer, motion designer and sound designer. We share a common involvement in the music industry and have worked on projects for FBi Radio, Cyclic Defrost* Magazine, Master of Ribongia and Shades of Gray. We've also done some great work for AEG and submitted projects for international video events, including Pause Fest and Video Minuto to build our profile.

Please check out my showreel and latest work to the left for a sample of my motion and animation style. I'd love to hear from you so if you'd like to say hello, please get in touch.

You may have noticed that I've slightly re-designed my website. Not a major redesign but I've removed unnecessary content and added more videos. I've got a range of commercial work that I wanted to show so I thought I'd make some room for it. Personal projects are still a massive part of what I'm about and I also find them extremely satisfying so I've kept them on my site and will continue to update them as I create them.

It's been great doing more work with The Nest. One of their clients is pitching to bring 'Matilda the musical by Roald Dahl' to Australia so I made a short video for them.

Interbrand recently re-branded the Queensland Art Gallery. The challenge was to reposition its two sites, the Queensland Art Gallery (QAG) and Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA) into a single QAGOMA brand for the first time. The re-brand has been praised on the infamous Brand New website and I was lucky enough to work on a video for the launch, which will also be played on cinema screens in the galleries. Joao Peres and Annah Brocklebank kickstarted this video and then I finished it for the launch. Watch the video on Vimeo.
