Design development for Glasshead/BBC Raw:
Above is a one of my designs, (created using stock footage).
I've, designed, directed and animated a sketch, (which you can watch here and/or here.), to accompany Nick Newman and Ian Hislop's Radio Four series The News at Bedtime (beginning Christmas eve).
Martin Davey painted all the wonderful backgrounds and Chris Forrester did all the brilliant compositing.
The sketches are produced by Simon Nicholls. They star Jack Dee, Peter Capaldi and Vicki Pepperdine.
Here's a still from the sketch. The book was designed by me and painted by Martin Davey.
CBeebies:
I've been developing character and background designs for a new CBeebies multi-platform project. The website has been commissioned, so I'm looking forward to doing a bit more work on that next year.
That Mitchell & Webb Look:
Here's a still from some animation which I did recently:
Design, direction and animation by me.

That Mitchell and Webb Look, (series 3), BBC2 - red button and online content.
This sketch was originally broadcast on the BBC Radio 4 show, That Mitchell and Webb Sound.
Sketches:
I'm working with Nev Fountain on a series of live-action comedy sketches starring Nicola Bryant.
(not that one, I mean the one who writes a lot of really funny stuff featured on
various 6 Music shows).
inducted into the Youtube BBC Comedy Greats hall of fame
Kato:
I have had the honour of writing alongside Alan Gilbey on a pilot
for a new kids' cartoon show, based on the popular game Mini Ninjas.
(I didn't design the pic above)!
Al did the majority of the work. I did the easy bit - writing the action sequences.
Films for Lorraine:
Lorraine Clarke asked me to animate some of her artwork...One of the resulting films has recently been screened at the Lumen festival. Another film/installation/oddity was part of The WW Gallery's "Is There Anybody There?", exhibition.
