I'm Ryan Jones, a 2-D animator, designer, director, as well as illustrator and traditional artist. I have worked on a hugely varied collection of projects from children's series, to promotional and music videos, to documentaries and graphic novels - some of which earning Bafta nominations and RTS awards - and have worked for a range of clients including BBC Learning, CBeebies and the Open University. Whether it's been creating a unique look specifically for a given project, or working to someone else's vision, I have adapted to a multitude of different styles and ways of working along the way, leading to me taking on the role as art director on a BBC Learning series, as well directing a series of shorts for YouTube and directing a number of smaller projects - taking them all the way from concept to final delivery, including concepts storyboards, character and background design, animation, editing and sound design, with a continuing passion for illustration and script writing. My personal style is quick paced, comedic and full of humour, with a love of bright colours, bold shapes and fun design for my animation and illustration - all of which also taking inspiration from my love of classic animation. I also take drawing commissions, creating bespoke pieces that include family, pet and celebrity portraits as well as caricatures and illustrations in a wide range of styles.
