Core Capabilities
Need the right format for your brief?
Choose from AI video, animation, video production or artwork and design — each one built to solve a different creative problem, and each one shaped to look sharp, clear and on brand.
For briefs that need speed, flexibility and a high-end look, hybrid AI can create something stunning without a full shoot or expensive animation costs.
Ideal for explainers, product videos and social content that needs to grab attention, simplify the message and make the information easy to understand.
On-brand artwork, product renderings and presentation design that turn ideas and information into premium assets for pitches, exhibitions, websites and internal comms.
Testimonials, corporate and demo videos for when trust, credibility and human connection matter most. Expert shoots with full post-production, editing, VFX.

Who I've Worked With
Over the last 20 years, I’ve worked with major organisations like Coca-Cola, Sony, DHL, KPMG, the Financial Times, Swarovski, Skanska and Esterline, but most of my day-to-day work is with small and mid-sized companies that want clear, effective content without agency bloat.
I act as an extension of their teams, turning ideas, products and information into assets they can actually use.
Trusted by businesses big and small
Let's talk.
Whether you have a clear brief or just an initial idea, I can help bring your animation, video, or design projects to life.
As the owner of a small independent studio, I pride myself on being flexible, reliable, and cost-effective with quick turnarounds.
Just drop your details into the form and I'll get straight back to you with realistic timelines and budgets.
I look forward to hearing from you.

How I Work
Your Goals, My Focus
I take the time to understand exactly what you need, then get straight to work to make it happen.
My process is practical and tailored: I explore, test and develop solutions as the project takes shape, keeping the output aligned to the brief.
I work quietly and efficiently, getting in touch when there’s something important to share or when I need your input.
Tailored Solutions
I mix traditional production expertise with modern workflows to deliver high-quality assets.
Whether you need 3D animations, presentation design, social media video or exhibition artwork, I choose the most effective tools for the job.
I adapt the approach to your project requirements and budget so you get the right result for the target audience.
Payments and Terms
One-off projects: We start with the scope of the brief. Once we are clear on the requirements, I provide a quote, and typically request a 50% deposit to secure your slot, with the balance due upon completion.
Retainer: If you have a recurring need for content, a retainer is the most cost-effective option. It gives you priority access at a discounted rate. We structure this based on your specific volume of work, whether that is a block of time or a set of monthly deliverables.

FAQs
What animation and video services do you offer?
I create animation, video and motion design for businesses that need clear, effective visual communication. This includes animated explainers, product videos, corporate and testimonial videos, motion graphics, digital artwork, presentations and social content.
Do you create AI video and AI-generated images?
Yes. I offer AI video and AI-generated images as part of my creative services, using Generative AI tools to quickly explore ideas, visual styles and concepts before developing them into polished, brand-ready content.
Do you mix AI with traditional animation & design?
Generative AI is a fast way to generate ideas, references and starting imagery, but it’s only one part of the process. I combine AI outputs with traditional animation, design, editing and post-production so the final work is controlled, consistent and aligned with your brand.
Can you work with our existing assets?
Yes. I regularly work with existing footage, logos, brand guidelines, 3D files and other assets. I can edit, enhance and repurpose what you already have through animation, motion design, compositing and image manipulation to create new pieces of content.
Can you help with product videos, explainers, presentations and social content?
Absolutely. I create product demos, animated explainers, pitch and sales presentations, internal comms pieces and social-first content that are designed to be clear, engaging and easy to understand for your audience.
From brief, most projects take between 1 to 2 weeks depending on scope, complexity and number of deliverables. Timelines are agreed upfront, and I keep the process structured so you know exactly what is happening and when.
