About me

Hi, I'm Sam.

I'm passionate about animation and art, I've loved them since I was a small child, and its always stayed with me. I'm an enthusiastic and dedicated worker, and I try to infuse a sense of fun and humour into my work. I attained a 2:1 in 2D Digital Animation from the University of Hertfordshire, and I'm well versed in both traditional and "modern flash cut-out style" animation techniques, as well as concepting for both character and environment, storyboarding, layouts, colour theory, editing, sound syncing and general production.

I have experience working on a full-scale animation project, designing logos and mascots, commission-based art work and interactive Flash projects. My degree has set me up for working in Animation, graphic design, Flash design, character design, illustration and Creative Suite-based work.

Although I may not have a huge amount of professional experience, I'm eager to show what I can really do, all I want is someone to take a gamble with me, and I promise I will not disappoint.

A small gallery of work can be viewed on my website at: *, but I am more than willing to take on some try-out work if required.

I feel I would be a great asset to your team, as I am very passionate when it comes to my craft, and looking at the type of work you do, feel I would fit in nicely at your company.

Please find attached a copy of my CV.

Overall, I'm a very lovely chap with an eagerness to learn and to show my potential, and feel I would be a good asset to any creative studio.

Thanks for your time, and I hope to hear from you soon.

Sam Palmer.
