Kavanimations

I have been a photographer, animator and filmmaker in London for almost 15 years. I’ve worked mostly within the high-end luxury retail sector, creating intricate lighting set ups and original artistic concepts for projects. My clients include Harrods, Burberry, Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein amongst many others.

Outside of my professional life, I have written and directed short films as a creative outlet and an ongoing ambition to become a narrative filmmaker, which have been accepted into various festivals in the last several years.

The combination of these skills has led me to stop-motion animation, a medium that has always enthralled me. From the Ray Harryhausen epics I grew up on, to childrens shows in the 80s like Morph, Pingu, Trapdoor and Postman Pat, to the modern studio giants like Aardman, Laika, and the Wes Anderson films, I’ve always found it a mesmerising artform with unparalleled scope for creativity, visual flair and storytelling. I immediately fell in love with the process, and I’m never happier than when I’m building sets or locked away in the studio for hours on end bringing things to life!
