Hello, I'm John - a freelance digital artist specialising in animation and compositing, with over 25 awards and screenings at international film festivals.
With nine years of professional animation experience, I've worked for many different clients and have been involved in a wide range of projects. If you need some animation or graphics doing for your current project or idea, why not ask me if I can help?
"John needs very little direction because he has an intelligence and creativity that instantly puts him in tune withn your vision. He is a joy to work with and sets standards that very few artists could match."
"John is a very accomplished animator who can adapt to any style. He is a real artist who pays great attention to his craft. Above all else, John is a great mate with a calming aura surrounding him. I would not hesitate to recommend him and I only hope that one day we can work together again." |
"John has worked with us on a few of our projects. He’s passionate, hard working and, most importantly, a very good character animator. He’s a real contributor. Hands off!" Morgan Powell, Seed Animation
"John quickly became an integral member of our production team. He was brought in as an animator, but proved himself equally skilled as a compositor, special effects artist and director. He is my first port of call if I want something doing on time and well."
"John did exceptional work on 'Dr Who: Infinite Quest', as animator, sfx artist and compositor, a gifted and focussed addition to any creative team (could also do with a bit of a trim)."
"I would recommend John to any company for any animation project, he's a genuine, hard working, fun person to be around and cycles too which is cool. Look forward to when he can join us again at Studio Liddell”."

My work has been shown in over 25 international film festivals, including several awards and screenings at the Annecy Film Festival, Vancouver Effects and Animation Festival, Edinburgh International Film Festival, Los Angeles International Short Film Festival, Anima Mundi, and the Royal Television Society.
I've had a wide range of animation experience, from games, arts council short film productions, University lecturing and workshops, freelance advertising and promotional work, and production studio work.
Software experience in production has been mainly with Im available to work on-site pretty much anywhere (depending on the duration of the project), or work from my studio in Manchester, and work regularly in London. I can drop right into a Max or XSI based pipeline with little notice, and any requirements can be discussed.
