About me

Award winning director and animator based in London.

Along with many other projects I have made comedy animations for the BBC, directed a music video for The Wombats, and designed the graphics and animations for all 30 episodes of BBC 2's game show 'Beat The Brain' with John Craven. In recent years I have made short animations for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation as well as Netflix.

Until recently I worked as the in-house animator for 'I Fucking Love Science'. To date my videos for IFLScience have received over 63 millions views.

My film 'The Penguin Who Couldn't Swim', made with the BFI and Wingspan Productions, was broadcast on BBC 4 in 2018 and is currently available to watch on the BFIplayer.
