Exchange Alley Animation


'The Bubble Tree'

Company: Butch Auntie
Client: London Arts Council

A continuously looped animation projected in an historic site known as 'Exchange Alley' in the heart of London. The film depicted the life cycle of a tree, slowly destroyed by its inhabitants as they scrabbled for increasingly bizzare (but historically accurate) commodities to trade on the precursor to the modern stock market. Their reckless trading caused what is known as 'The South Sea Bubble' and subsequent crash in the early 18th Century.

I was one of two Lead Animators on the project. Shown below are a selection of concept designs, props, sets and characters I created as part of the production.









Wedding Stationary

Wedding Invites and Table Plans

Company: Cute Maps

Clients would commission sets of wedding stationary including Invites, Save the Date cards, Order of Service, Menus, Table Plans and Place Cards. Below are a selection of Invites which would often lead the design of the other elements. 





Medical Animations

'Warning Signs During Pregnancy' // 'Nutrition' // 'Warning Signs in Newborns and Young Children'
Company: Butch Auntie
Client: Medical Aid Films

A collection of stills are shown below, taken from animations themed on the health of pregnant and new mothers and their children. These films were often translated into multiple languages and so we would need to adapt the designs to reflect the audiences the client was targeting.




 

Textile Work

Handmade Accessories and Decorations
Company: Little Canary

Some of the brooches I created using mixes of fabrics, coloured threads and beads. The final piece is inspired by Phileas Fogg, meant as a child's bedroom decoration.

 
 
 


Gallery and Events Posters

Posters for Print

Company: Aim for Art Gallery // Exposure Music Awards

A selection of posters I created for advertising gallery shows, workshops and also a music awards event. The images for the Northamptonshire Guild of Designer Craftsmen and the 'Olympic Prelude' were both supplied by exhibiting Artists. All other artwork is my own. 






VJing (Live Visuals)

Visual Projections for Events

Company: Butch Auntie
Client: Admirable Crichton // Leeds Castle

There are two separate examples of my work creating short animated clips themed on a client's event. These clips would be used both indoors and out for private/corporate/charity and public events. 

Below are designs used for a 'dark circus' themed New Years Eve event in the French Alps. The black-out areas are the sections of the stage that we were to avoid animating in; it was measured to harmonize with the architecture of the stage.




Below are two concepts used for clips on separate years of the Leeds Castle annual fireworks display. We were commissioned to create animations to project on the facade of the castle, to work with the audio. These two clips were 'The Monster Mash' and the Doctor Who theme.
