We created animated video guides for the Google Ads support pages – teaching users how best to begin their online advertising journey.

Animation that teaches the audience how to use powerful software presents a unique challenge in education – when a platform is comprehensive, how do you onboard users without overwhelming them?
This project is a great example of making effective decisions on audience understanding.
The careful balance between fidelity and readability means even when showing each screen of the product UI we have to ask ourselves: “Do we need to show this button as it appears, or just a representation of it?”

The result is a clean and straightforward tutorial that offers broader screen context, but focussing on individual buttons and form elements as required.

Google launches the iconic São Paulo Museum of Art on Google Arts & Culture.

Using Google Arts and Culture site this film introduces the newly-added Museu de Arte de São Paulo. The film is a showcase for the museum’s incredible catalogue of art, now available to admire digitally on the Arts and Culture platform.

OKKO Health is a revolutionary healthtech company, a leading organisation creating advanced digital solutions to solve historical eyecare challenges.

By building eyecare applications for effective measurement of eye health at home, OKKO’s programs aim to reduce patient wait times and make sure any required medical intervention comes quickly. Less wait times, faster treatment.

OKKO wanted an introductory video for their work, a short explainer for patients to understand OKKO’s eyecare focus.

I took inspiration from the technical-focussed OKKO website visuals – an intricate but rounded, friendly approach to health care visual design. After working with the OKKO team on a script, I created a storyboarded and timed animatic before animating and eventually creating an additional retimed version for the German market.

OKKO Space Academy is a game designed to measure the eye health of children with amblyopia.

As users play through short, simple mini games the app captures eye health data to track the progress of their amblyopia. It’s now in clinic trials.

Using Nat-Al Tahhan’s adorable characters and beautiful immersive world designs, I made storyboards for the intro sequence/onboarding and animated motion references in After Effects for character animators working in Spline for the final product.

Roofstock 2018: Queer Festival Fundraiser was a fundraising event run by and for the Kaleidoscope Trust.

I was given free reign to design a poster, also creating social assets to promote the event. I wanted the poster to feel like a Pride street party, reflect the diversity of the queer community coming together for a fun event to support a great cause.

Kaleidoscope Trust is an organisation working with governments, change-makers and civil society organisations in countries still affected by anti-LGBTI+ laws imported during British colonial rule.

Using the bold, friendly (and distinctly Android) palette and art style we created a 3-part explainer series for Android developers on best practises and creating better news applications.

A short and sweet project, I made three tiny animated GIFs for an Across the Pond email newsletter. The agency took the money normally allocated for a Christmas party and instead donated it to charitable causes – each yuletide character transformation highlights where the money got directed.

An ongoing felt tip portraiture series.

Using rigid, straight-edged lines the technique here betrays the softness and sensual nature of each subject. An almost neurotic mark-making style contrasts beautifully with the softness of nude bodies and bleeding felt tip ink.

AXA’s 2019 series highlights their partnership with Eurasia Group using geopolitical trends to understand global future risks.

I joined a team of designers to work on animated segments for the series. We were provided the art style and scripts for the films, using these we created new styleframes and animation based on an existed completed video.

How It’s Done was a wide multimedia campaign across digital and print. My work was on the production of digital ads.

We made animated ads for YouTube’s preroll in multiple languages then reformatted those same animations to make them work cleanly using Banner Ad format using Lottie and Bodymovin in After Effects. Working with other EMEA production teams we localised the animations manually for each market, tying the individualised creative with new visual elements where needed.

Molten Brown wanted a beautiful video detailing the ingredients of their signature Orange and Bergamot scent. #AwakenTheCultIcon

I was brought in to animate gorgeous stills by James Cottell, drawings that take their cue from classic botanical illustration to tell a short story of the Orange and Bergamot creation, using every part of the Seville orange tree.

Queers Beyond Borders is a project from The Love Tank. Focussed on support for LGBTQ+ migrants, Queers with Beyond Borders offers resources and city guides from health services and social groups to housing advice in cities around Europe.

Designed by Richard Kawaghi, the logo is already very animated. Its Fleischer cartoon-inspired character legs are just begging for that extra step.

I started adding some new shoe frames at different angles, and animated the walk cycle in After Effects with Limber. Creating variants on loops for different use cases.

My final year film at University for the Creative Arts, Farnham. Nominated for Best Animation at the Royal Television Society Awards, and selected for the London Short Film Festival.

Wombmates is a portrait of me and my twin brother, we reflect on our relationship and how seemingly polarised twins can actually be.
