About
I am a London based animation director and filmmaker. I studied Fine Art at Liverpool Poly before discovering animation and making my first film on my kitchen table.
I then studied animation at the Royal College of Art.
My work includes BAFTA nominated animated short, The World of Interiors, for Channel 4, which began whilst working as animator in residence at MOMI under Waterloo Bridge on London’s South Bank.
Much of my recent work has been collaborative with other artists / filmmakers. I have produced, directed and facilitated a number of projects including a short film with Young Offenders in a women’s prison, a photo-animated documentary journey along a London high street, and several Intergenerational films. Most recently I finished Minecraft Wisbech, a film with Collusion Cambridge, which uses Minecraft as a tool to talk about community in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire.
In 2016 I worked with award winning novelist Sheena Joughin to make Men Talk About Mother, an animated documentary, for Film London, which premiered at the BFI London Film Festival and has been screened at festivals worldwide.
My most recent project, What’s Next is a music promo for Piroshka, and I am currently working on a live action documentary with young people in North London about the problem of knife crime.
I am a visiting lecturer in animation at the Royal College of Art.
