B I O G R A P H Y

I work as a music video director, illustrator, animator and create projections for theatre companies and live music performances. Throughout my career I have run animation workshops and lectured in animation, both in the UK, Europe and in Asia.

​

​

Over the years I have worked with many independent and major record labels. Highlights include a music video for Paul McCartney & Wings for the song ‘Call Me Back Again’ (MPL communications Inc.), Skunk Anansie for the song ‘I believed in you’ (Boogooyamma Records), Newton Faulkner for the song ‘Write It On Your Skin’ (Sony Music), Joshua Radin for the song ‘I’d Rather Be With You’ (Warner Brothers Records) and a series of music videos for the band Gravenhurst (Warp Records). I have recently completed music videos for the bands Kayak, Pain of Salvation and Pure Reason Revolution through InsideOut Records/Sony Music.

​

​

In December 2009 I completed a short film for a Channel 4/ Arts Council Scheme called Animate! with a film entitled ‘Unicycle Film’. I have worked on various projects internationally including on animated projections, which were created for a play of ‘Orpheus and Eurydice’, which ran in the Old Vic Tunnels in London.

​

​

I have exhibited drawings and paintings in England, China, Korea, Croatia, France and Italy. My films have been screened in more than 60 International film festivals worldwide, Including in Annecy, Stuttgart, Hiroshima, SICAF, Melbourne, London and in Krok in Russia.

​

​

I graduated from Kingston University in 2004 with a degree in Illustration. In 2016 I completed an MA in Animation at the University of the Creative Arts in Farnham, England.
