About Me
Alright there, I’m a 2D animator specialising in Flash software. I’m also pretty good at other stuff including Photoshop, After Effects and hand rearing poutlry. I studied animation at University of the West of England and am currently pursuing a career in that field. My ambition is to work on children’s television in some form and to someday see one of my ideas become a series.
This little book showcases some of my creative work.

Dead & Breakfast
I directed and animated this short film in my final year of university. It revolves around a duck spending a weekend at a haunted hotel, where every time he falls asleep a piece of his body gets stolen. To make this I used Flash, Photoshop, After Effects, Audition and Premier 6

The Journey
This short film was entered into the Encounters film festival ‘Anijam’ competition and had to be completed from scratch in 48 hours. I designed and animated the angler fish, as well as co-wrote and composited on After Effects. I worked along side animators Nick Crimmen and Chris Bowman. Created in Flash, After Effects and Premier 8
Miles Kelly Ident
I was approached to design and animate an Ident for the children’s book publisher Miles Kelly. This was to be used at the start of every one of their Apple iBook series of publications. I employed the help of animator Nick Crimmen for some of the characters. Created in Flash, After Effects and Premier 9
Fresh-ly Poster Designs
I worked as a main designer for a Cambridge based event organiser for a few years. Creating posters, logos, T-shirt designs and various other things. I had to adopt many dfferent styles so every new event seemed fresh. Most commonly I worked on a weekly club night called Jam Hot. Everything here was assembled on Photoshop. 10

Magic Storyteller Deck
I was appraoched by magician Wayne Goodman to illustrate a set of 30+ magic cards for young children based around fairy tale characters. The card deck sold well with good feedback and is soon to be published as a children’s story book. All images created on Photoshop. 12
