A Wondrous Place

I was approached by theatre director Chris Meads way back in 2010 to be involved in a new multi disciplinary theatre project called 'A Wondrous Place'. After completing the research and development process last year, the identity design work is now complete and blog up and running.
I will soon be starting the production work of the animated backdrops, ready for the live performances next year. In the meantime there is a guest curator from various arts and culture disciplines on the blog every week: http://northernspirit.org.uk/.
Check out The Guardians write up of the project complete with my published artwork on their blog: http://www.guardian.co.uk/uk/the-northerner/2012/sep/17/theatre-grim-up-north-leeds-liverpool-manchester-sheffield

New commission live

I was approached by Milan based SkinCeuticals to create a short film piece based on one of their products. Taking on board the 'beauty in a bottle' theme, this mixed media piece is a composite of found footage throughout the last century.

New comedy short 'Computer Love' has been shortlisted for the Van D'or award, and will be later travelling to Cannes as part of Canne in a Van. http://www.cannesinavan.com/mobile-film-festival/the-van-dor-awards/
This new animation tells the story of a computer who finds himself so heartbroken, he is unable to render anymore.
