After seeing my animation work in my award winning autobiographical documentary film "A Boy Called Matthew", I was contacted by a digital video production company called Fraggell Productions to create animations for several of their corporate videos.
Since then, I have produced freelance motion graphics work for other agencies such as Vidsy, Global & HandsDown Digital.
The work I have produced for these agencies range from social media posts, video advertisements displayed on various social media platforms and online to corporate explainer videos.

Education
1st Class BA (Hons) FilmmakingManchester Metropolitan University
- Manchester, United Kingdom
My time on this practice-based course gave me the creative freedom to develop my voice through the dynamic language of film.
The learning environment incorporated a unique mix of digital art and film school philosophies, empowering students to express their ideas and stories through narrative fiction, documentary, artists’ moving image and new media. I learned to specialise in original ideas from unique perspectives, and had some of my work and work I did on other directors projects to be screened in local and international venues.
Highlights from my tenure at MMU include being a camera trainee for an award winning BFI Future Film project "Lifeline" directed by Sam Jones, as well as accolades such as MSA Film Festival Alumni Award 2017, The Manchester & Salford Film Society Tom Ainsworth Short Film Awards Jury Prize for Documentary, & Adobe Design Achievement Award Semi Finalist for Fine Art - Video/Editing/Post-Production.
