Videos and Animations – A Diverse Exploration of Motion and Storytelling
This collection showcases a range of videos and animations that span the breadth of my creative practice. From award-winning art pieces to children’s television and music videos, these works reflect a diversity of themes, techniques, and approaches to storytelling.
Featured Works:
• Self Portrait: Man as Dog (1999)
This animated work won the 1999 Whanganui Arts Review and is now held in the prestigious Sarjeant Gallery collection. The piece is an exploration of identity and transformation, blending painterly techniques with experimental animation.
• Children’s Television Animations
Over the years, I’ve created a variety of animations for children’s TV, bringing whimsical characters and imaginative stories to life in short, engaging formats.
• Music Videos
I’ve collaborated with musicians to create animated music videos that visually interpret their sound and lyrics, from hand-drawn animation to mixed media approaches.
Thematic Range and Techniques
My animation work ranges from deeply personal projects to collaborative commercial pieces. I explore techniques such as painting over video stills, hand-drawn animation, and digital compositing. Whether it’s a surreal self-portrait or a playful children’s sequence, each animation is grounded in a strong narrative core.
Available for Commissioned Work
I am available to create bespoke animations and videos for a variety of projects, from artistic collaborations to commercial commissions. If you’re interested in working together, feel free to reach out via the contact page to discuss your vision and how we can bring it to life.
