THE LAB: Illustration + Motion
This is where I play. Between projects I like to add to my learning or work on personal projects. I do this with both motion and illustration projects. And in no particular order. There’s a gallery for both motion and illustration projects to look through here. No need for case studies with these ones. Click an image to jump to the project!
Oftentimes the work I do can be governed by branding police and guidelines. I prefer to think of that kind of stuff as parameters rather than restrictions. When a corporate-style job finishes, I think my brain swings back to more analogue/textures approaches for my personal work.
I drew a skull, then coloured it and produced a bunch of iterations, then made a flick-book, then put a bunch of my own textures on top. I like work that can look like a piece of art on any individual frame.
This fits that for me. I'm toying with the idea of making some merch like prints or tees or stickers. Any opinions or guidance?
('Them Bones' by Alice in Chains does a lot of heavy lifting here. 😎 )
SKULLS:
DC Head Animation: This is my younger self based on a comic I did years ago about me and the boys and a day in the life of us working in a supermarket together. I want to do more animating like this, so I'll have to work on translating my current style that allows for easier animating. Made using AI/AE/JoysticksandSliders

Travel Sketches
I always like to do a bit of sketching when I go visit somewhere new. Or at least take photos to reference later. There’s always a small notebook on hand if I head out for a few quiet drinks with the missus. Images below are from Australia, Poland, Lisbon, England. I’ve a few other countries to add sketches from soon.
