Cyriak
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cyriak Harris is a British freelance animator better known by his first name Cyriak, and his B3ta username Mutated Monty.
A regular contributor to the British website B3ta since 2004[1], Cyriak displays a surreal and often disturbing animation style with a distinct British theme. Many of his animations are based on Z-List celebrities, television shows and his hometown of Brighton.
His work has been noticed by the BBC which resulted in a short interview[2], and the airing of his animation DeadEnders (based on the long-running soap opera EastEnders) on the BBC3 comedy series Comedy Shuffle[3]. He also received a special mention in the results of a photoshop competition run by the technology series Click[4].
Cyriak's YouTube account features a compilation of his animations, which have been popular throughout the blogosphere and noted by Wired's Eliot Van Buskirk [5], and he was recently featured on the front page with his animation Moo.
As a freelance animator he has been commissioned by Coke for a Coke Zero advert[3], and by the video sharing website sumo.tv, among others.
