About me

Hello, I'm Andy, a creative technologist and designer with close to two decades of experience making colorful things move. My career started in broadcast graphics and art direction, and somewhere along the way I discovered that I was just as interested in building the tools as I was in using them. So, while I was a senior designer at FX Australia and National Geographic Channel, I quietly automated my own job. I took the networks' branding guidelines, resources, and templates and programmed them into an After Effects pipeline that would automatically make promos and graphics for me each week.

It worked exceedingly well (too well, in fact; I had to start taking on new projects just to keep busy). That project set the direction for everything since, and I've been combining design and code to make productions and pipelines faster and easier.

These days I keep a two-day-a-week Creative Technologist role at the University of Sydney, and spend the rest of my time on an international freelance practice, taking on motion graphic projects with studios and agencies, building branding assets and TV graphic packages with MOGRT/Essential Graphics templates, writing ExtendScript automations, and helping teams figure out how to enhance their production flows. I care a great deal about design and direction, but I care just as much about efficiency.

If you're looking for someone who can do both (and talk sensibly about how they connect), I'd love to hear what you're working on.
