About Me

me_edited_edited_edited_edited.jpg

 I am

a freelance junior
animator
and MA Animation

      and BA Computer Animation                        graduate from the               University of South Wales.

I am interested in all types of CG

  animation from character to

creature, but have recently started to lean towards VFX since
working in the industry as
a professional.

 

​

I am a keen

photographer, and

enjoy learning how films are

directed to help drive the

storytelling, completing my dissertation on the subject of cinematography. When not learning new techniques about cinema or animating, I enjoy following sports such as Rugby, Football
and
Boxing as well as

building Lego.

Dupe VFX (13/12/2021 - 21/07/2023) 

Junior Animator

At Dupe VFX, I worked across 4 projects, using Maya as my primary animation tool. Other tools and software were utalised such as the CRAFT car rigging system for maya and Houdini's KineFX for ragdolls. I really developed over my time here and am eager to continue to develop as an animator and contribute to more great projects. Production time tracking and feedback was given over ftrack.

Painting Practice (24/10/2019 - 06/11/2019)
Within the two weeks on the placement, I worked on post-vis for His Dark Materials series 2. This consisted of using Cinema 4d for tracking, animating and rendering. The experience also improved my communication skills, while working as part of a team and independently to reach deadlines.

Foundation Art and Design (2016-2017)

On this course I started to develop my animation skills, after sampling a number of art forms from Graphic Design to Fine Art, I chose to specialise in Animation. I learned the basic techniques of animation through the medium of 2D Animation and Stop Motion projects that further developed my passion for Animation.
