Projects
  • Network Rail
    Network RailCorporate communication video for Network Rail. This information-heavy project for use internally needed some help to make it more engaging. Using 3D animation and motion graphics we managed to communicate the information they required in an entertaining way.
  • Night of the Living Bread
    Night of the Living BreadA short animated sting created using real gingerbread zombies baked by S.i.2.G. creatives. Each gingerbread zombie was photographed at various angles, with careful attention to align the studio lighting in the same place as the moon in the final composite. These images were then cut out using Adobe Photoshop and animated using Adobe After Effects. The overall effect is a little bit more 3D than a conventional 2d stop-motion animation.
  • Yes, My Lord
    Yes, My LordThe brief was to create an interesting company brand with animated logo. Using 3DS Max we designed this wooden toy, based loosely on a Viking toy found in Stockholm. The logo animation is used on the website and as an end card for their films.

    Creative ProducerFreelance
    There are over 2 million people employed in creative jobs across the UK, which makes finding your next employee exciting and just a little bit daunting. I have dedicated my entire career to the creation of videos, animations and design. There’s an extremely good chance that you’ve seen my work, too. Whether it was one of the many TV programmes I worked on, like Derren Brown: The Heist, or perhaps a TV or cinema commercial - Gü Chocolate Puddings, for instance. I offer my services to you as a CREATIVE PRODUCER. I’m happy to pitch for your commissions directly or work within your company with the rest of your team. Above all else I am happiest producing high quality work that is seen by the world.
    Producer & Director
     - 
    The Aged Care Channel broadcast to over 90% of Australia’s care homes. Sharing the same language a small team arrived on the shores of Great Britain to roll-out coverage across the UK. My aim was to help the company become a UK success story. We grew our subscriptions and the four person team became a larger corporation, hiring additional creatives, sales staff and a new CEO. I helped lay a strong UK foundation and many of my streamlined workflows were adopted by our Australian counterparts.
