I am an animator from Cornwall currently in Bristol looking to work in animated documentary, music video and short film. Co-founded After Dark animation in 2016 and it’s been feeding me ever since. Hire me so I can buy nicer cheese.
At After Dark we want to use our talent to have a positive impact on the world, along with our own modest efforts we want to support companies that are trying to change their world, locally or globally.
So if your company is invested in sustainability, trying to have a positive local impact, aiming to go green / plastic free / use 100% renewable energy I want to hear from you!
Projects
- Ecosia AdvertsFacebook advert for Eco Friendly Search Engine Ecosia which uses advert profit to plant trees globally. Animation was an new and risky approach for Ecosia as users like to see the work they do. Our advert was estimated to get 40,000 views but received over 100,000 views in just two days and has now hit 300,000+ views, it was designed and animated in two weeks. After its success we made another 2 videos for use on social media and youtube adverts.

- Meaningful Maths -Meaningful Math is the new knowledge-driven and community-powered journey, equipping teachers with a new way of understanding math. The platform consists of an online library of videos and resources for 1st-grade math teachers and tutors (2nd and 3rd grade coming soon!). Taught by the amazing Jillian Starr and brought to life by After Dark Animation, each video focuses on breaking down a different math concept into easy bite-size lessons so you can feel more confident in your math instruction.1
- What Lies BeneathAn educational and awareness campaign project we created with Cornish Environment Charity, "Our Only World" The animated explainer video was created to be shown on social media, played in local Cornish schools, and to be presented to potential investors of the charity. With it being used to fundraise for an Eco-Charity we were excited to make the artwork as beautiful as possible. We wanted to honour the beauty of the local Cornish area and based the final scene in Port Isaac. Re-wilding local5
- LaplandUK Honorary Elf HatWith Christmas fast approaching and LaplandUk still not built, the team had to come up with a new way to advertise their new Honorary Elf Hat. Animation! We worked closely with Matt from the Lapland team to make this magical animation come to life, encapsulating the magic of LaplandUK in an animation was a big challenge, their world is SO incredible and completely immersive that it was hard to match but I think we did a good job!
