About me
I am a Co-Founder of Zero One Creative, a small start-up with lofty ambitions. At Zero One we are a small team with a range of VFX, Motion Graphics and Production-Based skillsets; and we have already had the opportunity to work with various documentary and film makers to bring their work to life. As well as working with external clients, we are currently developing our own in-house multi-platform project where we aim to bring a variety of unique and thought provoking stories to life from a future world. I left the RAF as an Aircraft Technician on Chinooks with an ambition to live a more creative life. I then graduated from the National Film and Television School with a Masters in Digital Effects, specialising in compositing. Since then, I have continued to develop my skills as well as branch out into new directions with Motion Graphics and 3D work within the Unreal Engine.
