A multi award winning animation director with 35 years industry experience and just loves animation. I have directed two animated features, part way through a third and have completed a number of award winning short films. I love animating so among other things I am currently working on developing a slate of projects for a new animation streaming service called "Compendium". I am also a highly experienced creative with an extensive history of working in feature film and broadcast development, creative consultancies, editorial and general post production. As part of my development and commissioning experience I have provided hands on and hands off editorial feedback, financial risk vs reward assessments and worked with banks to deliver structured finance. Editorially I have overseen and shaped numerous "from scratch" edits both as an editor and edit producer. I have taken many cuts from rough to lock or right the way through to finishing, dub and mastering. I have designed many title and credit sequences, lower thirds and graphics which means that I can be across the look and feel of an entire show without compromising the quality for the cost. My storytelling and scripting are always driven by the brief but my decision making in the edit is always calm and precise. I also have a great deal of experience in compliance heavy projects, where there has been a great deal of redacting. I am also highly experienced in general post production management, VFX production, archive material and digital film workflows. Design and direction showreels and snippets from my short films are available for serious enquires or you can take a peek at www.blue-box.co.uk for a more general idea of the type of work I have created. I am always up for a new freelance challenges so very happy to chat. Read Less
