Hey there. I’m Danny.
A proud Irishman, I’ve been living and working in sometimes sunny Leamington Spa in the middle of England since 2008. As a boy (and man), comics were a huge interest of mine. I perhaps, didn’t realise as a boy, but reading them exposed my brain to lots of different subjects like philosophy, science, civil liberties, prejudice, religion and history etc. Carrying all these interests into adulthood, I really believe that using a mix of illustrated or animated content in these contexts can pique interest and reach audiences. Especially younger ones.
Motion design for me is the perfect mix of problem solving through design and art. I help educators develop interesting content through crossing the disciplines of design, motion, illustration and animation. I’ve collaborated and helped in-house agencies, universities, and other educational organisations to create more engagement, convey their values, train their staff and tell their stories.
