About
I’m a freelance 3D Motion Designer with 7+ years of experience in CGI, animation, and compositing, including over three years working within the advertising industry. I specialise in cinematic, narrative-led visuals that combine strong design, lighting, and camera work to create striking visual storytelling.
My core skills include 3D animation, texturing, lighting, and look development, primarily using Cinema 4D and Redshift, with additional experience in After Effects and compositing workflows. I’ve contributed to projects for major clients including Netflix, Sky, BBC, Amazon Prime, and Ford, spanning film titles, brand campaigns, and music videos.
I enjoy collaborating with directors and creative teams to bring ideas from concept through to final delivery, and I’m comfortable working remotely within fast-paced production pipelines.
