About me
Hello! I'm an award winning animator based in the UK specialising in music promos, lyric videos and digital content. With 20+ years of motion graphics experience, I offer the personal touch to every project and love helping bring your ideas to life. I pride myself on good communication skills throughout every step of a project and always deliver on time. Previous clients include: Universal, Mercury Records, BMG and Atlantic Records. I enjoy life one frame at a time.
Projects
  • Love Waiting On You: Music Video
    Love Waiting On You: Music VideoHere’s a music video I directed / animated for English rock band The Subways. I was approached by Goomusic to create a video to compliment their track "Love Waiting On You". The song’s lyrics describe pining for the love of one's life, however the relationship is fraught with tension so I envisaged telling the story through the simplicity of an old 80s/90s arcade video game. This project was 6 weeks in the making and I'm so pleased that the final video was extremely well received by the band a
