Timeline

Adam Phillips, also known by his online alias Chluaid, is an Australian filmmaker, animator, and former freelancer.

He is best known for his animation work, consisting of flash animation compositions published on his website, Bitey Castle, and on the flash portal Newgrounds.

His animation work on the latter has over 16 million views, making him one of the most-viewed artists on the site.

1971

Adam Phillips was born in 1971 and raised in Narromine, New South Wales.

1989

In 1989, Phillips moved to Queensland and was injured in an industrial accident.

He dedicated himself to drawing during his convalescence.

1993

In 1993, he was hired by Disney to work as a tweener in Sydney and promoted to the position of character animator two years later.

1998

He became the effects director in 1998, a role in which he worked on several Disney sequel films.

2004

Phillips created the fantasy animation shorts series, Brackenwood, the first of which was posted on Newgrounds in March 2004.

At the end of 2004, Phillips left Disney "to pursue [his] own interests."

2006

Since that time, Phillips has produced more content for his Brackenwood setting, including Prowlies at the River, which in 2006 was said to be in the Top 10 Most Influential Online Flash Shorts.

He has continued to do outside work as a freelance animator, writer and special effects designer for clients such as Kellogg's, BioWare San Francisco and Wizards of the Coast (Dungeons and Dragons).

In 2006, Phillips produced thirty 10–20 second animations in 30 days.

2008

In 2008, Phillips released the latest conventional Brackenwood installment, The Last of the Dashkin, with the intention to either start work on a sequel or to pitch the series as a feature film.

2010

However, in 2010 Phillips partnered with programmer and fellow animator Sean McGee to start work on a Brackenwood-branded video game titled Dashkin, which would serve as a sequel to The Last of the Dashkin.

It would be a high-speed side-scroller, all made in Adobe Flash.

2011

In 2011, Phillips launched the BiteyCastle Effects Academy (BCA FX), a subscription-based series of video tutorials teaching how to do 2D animated visual effects.

While still working as a freelance animator for EA2D in 2011, Phillips showed their progress on the Dashkin game to his colleagues at the studio.

Not long after, EA2D was renamed Bioware San Francisco and had begun to search for established 2D IPs on Flash game sites, such as Newgrounds.

EA2D asked Phillips if he would be interested for them to work with him on making Dashkin a social game on Facebook, and after discussing it with McGee, he agreed.

While initially worried about the game having microtransactions, Phillips reasoned that it could help Brackenwood reach a larger audience.

A small team came together, file sharing and version control were put in place, but as Phillips and McGee got to the contract stage, EA2D began to go through some big changes and their boss advised them to take the Dashkin IP back.

Not long after, their boss left the company to co-found Rumble Games, and most of the EA2D Phillips had been a part of disbanded after a few months.

Phillips and McGee had already begun overhauling Dashkin into a social game, but they had no money left and only about 5% of the game completed.

After shopping the IP around to some Flash portals and getting rejected, Phillips and McGee launched a Kickstarter fundraiser to fund the project.

They received US$27,333 in donations towards making the game.

After five years of working together, the two collaborators' schedules would not allow them to continue.

2014

In 2014, Phillips created an animated GIF of the Mexican team coach at the World Cup which went viral, being viewed over seven million times.

Phillips switched from Adobe Flash to Toon Boom Animation's software.

In 2014, Toon Boom commissioned Phillips to write a guide book titled Animate to Harmony: The Independent Animator's Guide to Toon Boom, and in 2016 Phillips' tutorials on their Harmony software were broadcast on Twitch TV.

Phillips has worked on the American animated comedy television series Bob's Burgers as a digital effects animator (2014), storyboard artist (2015-2016), and assistant director (2016-2019).

2015

Phillips had also found that the limitations of Adobe Flash were hindering the performance of the game considerably, and so the project was cancelled in 2015.

2016

In December 2016, he was a featured artist at the Adobe Design Center.

Phillips was a frequent collaborator with Electronic Arts' BioWare San Francisco studio (formerly EA2D), working as a freelance animator with the studio on three Dragon Age-branded games.

His collaboration included creating all of the art and animation for the browser-based Dragon Age Journeys.

He set the art style for the Facebook/Google+ game, Dragon Age Legends, as well as animating the opening cinematic and providing concept art for the game's main characters.

His art was also used for Dragon Age Legends: Remix 01, a collaboration between BioWare San Francisco and the Flash game developer PixelAnte (also known as Evan Miller).

2017

In 2017, Phillips announced that he would return to work on Brackenwood animations, with the Wildlife Documentary Series and a conventional installment in the form for a sequel to The Last of the Dashkin.

In March 2017, Phillips announced the full-time development of a new Brackenwood branded game called Dashkin, a revival of the previous Dashkin game project he had been working on with McGee.

2019

In 2019, Phillips was quoted in a Wired article where he talked about why he decided to switch to digital and use Flash.
