I make animation and games.
Haywards Heath, United Kingdom

Summary

I make animation and games, mostly for a children's audience, but not exclusively. My background is in Flash animation for the web, pre-school television, app and game development.
I'm a generalist. I can develop character art concepts, build and animate animation rigs, set up production workflows, develop narratives, and mentor junior team members. I have taught 2D animation at university level.
I work with a wide range of digital 2D and 3D design and animation tools. I've worked with several game engines, the main one being Unity3D.
If you need the help of an experienced pair of eyes/hands on your project, please get in touch.

Experience

  • Lecturer: 2D Animation at Falmouth University
    Falmouth, GB
    September 2019 - March 2021

    I taught 2D animation techniques using TV Paint to the 1st year, life drawing to all years, and mentored 2nd year animation projects. I loved it.

  • MA Student (Digital Film Making) at London Guildhall University
    London, GB
    September 2001 - September 2002

    I studied for, and secured, a Master of Arts in Digital Film Making. I made short films using Flash, After Effects and 3D Studio Max. It was around this time I discovered Blender (before it went open source).

  • Flash Animator at Harcourt
    Oxford, GB
    September 2000 - September 2001

    I made a lot of interactive Flash games for the DART Maths project.

  • Interactive Designer at Cognitive Applications
    Brighton, GB
    June 1996 - May 1998

    I designed and animated interactive content for museums and art galleries, mostly using Flash but also Macromedia Director. What a job, I absolutely loved it.

  • Shop and Office Worker at Various
    London, GB
    May 1987 - September 1996

    I left school not knowing what I wanted to do in life. But I did love London, so I moved there and got a series of low status, low paid jobs. After all kinds of adventures, I bought myself an Apple computer (a Performa) and taught myself animation with Future Splash Animator. That was the start of it all.
