What do you need

help with today?

  • 01 IDEA

    This might be a very loose idea or something you’ve been considering for a while. This is the bit where I’ll get to know your project. Where I dig into what it is you need, to help explain. This is where the project can be fully understood and what you are trying to get out of it. No strings attached, after this point we can……

  • 02 QUOTE

    Different budgets allow for a variety of visuals. Cost-effective workflows that give you the best solution within the budget available.

    You are going direct to the artist, which means you get the ultimate cost-effective efficiency without all the layers of multiple studio fees alongside over a decades worth of experience.

    Video edits and animation don’t need to cost the earth anymore thanks to the streamlined workflows available.

  • 03 STYLE

    Every company should have a brand, you might not already have one but this can set you on your way, perhaps you already do. The main thing is styles are consistent. This can be from the colour, the text, to the textures and characters if involved. This is where the visual world gets locked down.

  • 04 STORYBOARD

    This is where I start to move from the initial discovery into production. Where the words are translated into movement and motion. Storyboards are almost always key here, allowing us all to collaborate on where the story is heading.


  • 05 ANIMATION / EDIT

    This is where I start to make things animate. The most important bit for a project, is how this is shared with you. I want to make sure you see work as it progresses so there are no surprises. This could be as simple as a regularly updated video edit for review or adding in the animation flourishes.


  • 06 - DELIVERY

    Ensuring you have the files and formats you need is paramount. It could be being delivered to a media partner for broadcast, or in a variety of shapes and sizes for a conference. Whatever it is you need, I make sure to know this from the outset so you get everything in the right place, at the right time.

  • ONGOING

    All projects are kept in the archives, as often things are revisted or repurposed down the line, saving time and money on future delivery. Always happy to help.
