I'm a freelance motion graphics and interactive designer...I've decided to follow my passion and took the move to give up my 'proper' job a while ago and have been working on my mograph skills since then. If you're into motion design, photography or anything that involves pushing pixels why not make contact?

Back to school (sort of) Apr 29

Having followed the fantastic podcasts, I recently decided to enroll at Fxphd. Its a pretty solid outfit and after a couple of weeks I can honestly say its living up to my expectations. I'm not really too interested in the 'nuts and bolts' of working a particular application (there are loads of tutorials for that) but rather the background to projects and industry best practice. If I pick up any gems I'll try to post them here but if you're interested in pushing your VFX skills forward I recommend you check out fxphd.

Save Angel Hope updated Apr 7

I created a logo animation for a Swiss film production company a while ago. The website for their latest production Save Angel Hope, has been updated and includes a trailer which looks great. The Director, Lukas is a great guy to work with so I really hope it does well. Check out the trailer at the official website.
