  'Till Deaf Do Us Part'A Central St. Martins MA Character Animation project for The Old Operating Theatre and Herb Garret in London Bridge. Mick Lawrence: Director, Animator, Character Designer, Voice Actor.
• 'The Sky Above Us'Video Games have become a mass medium with nearly half of all gamers being female. Despite the diversity of the gaming population, women still face harassment and marginalisation within the games community, partially because of the sexist way females are represented in many popular games. “The Sky Above Us” is a video game concept which seeks to demonstrate a better way of representing gender through storytelling and conscious character design. This animation is a short introduction to the the four main characters Ilma, Heratta, Valo and Lumi. (In collaboration with animator Mick Lawrence) Words by Dusan Tomic.
• 'How the question got its mark'The Question Mark is a literal wonder. But just what goes into shaping this pondering piece of punctuation? How the Question got its Mark charts the (mostly) true story of the birth of a Question Mark - Where did it come from? How did it get its hunch-back shape? Why is it even here? And just what is a Caret anyway?! We attempt to explain these, and more, as we reveal just how the Question got its Mark… . Written by Ant Khaseria, Animation by Charlie Tetlow, Tatiana Alisova and Mick Lawrence Voiceover: Laura Wolfe; recorded by Christian Lewcock at Maze Hill Shoal Studios
