Projects

• Animated Video GuidesA series of one-minute videos produced for leading price comparison site Gocompare, informing customers on how they can save money on energy bills and get speedier broadband. These short, concise animated guides are great for keeping audiences engaged and sharing across social media. All artwork was created in Illustrator before being taken into After Effects for animation.
• Application Case StudiesA series of case studies and white papers designed for Westbase Technology, showcasing customer success stories and the advantages of their 3G/4G networking solutions.
• WestAccess Feature VideosA series of informative videos for cloud-based connectivity company WestAccess, featuring an overview of their management system and their other available services.
• Teaching Kids About MoneyAn infographic created for Gocompare’s online magazine ‘Covered’, illustrating how parents can teach their children how to be good with money.
• Life Sciences HUB WalesI’ve worked with Life Sciences HUB Wales on a number of separate projects ranging from an animated logo ident for company videos, an info flyer with directions to the HUB and a one page event handout.
• Asavie Website RedesignA modern website redesign for network connectivity provider Asavie. With so much technical information to provide layouts needed to be clean and content easy to digest. Using text blocks paired with vibrant visuals made it much more engaging than the old, text heavy design.
