Hi! I'm Alex

I'm a Motion Designer, Illustrator and Interactive Animator who loves making things move,
play and come to life.
I work with brands, studios and creative teams to make all sorts of things, from playful
animations and motion graphics to interactive experiences and everything in between. I enjoy
experimenting with movement, interaction and ideas, and adding a little bit of personality and
fun to whatever I'm working on!
Basically, I like making things that people want to look at, play with and come back to.

MY FEATURED WORK

Phantom Pops

Interactive characters & Social Media Posts

As part of a collaboration project, I created three brand animations for the concept brand Phantom Pops. Exploring Interactive Animation in Rive, and crafting a retro promo ad and social media assets in After Effects, my motion design wizardry helped breath a new layer of life into an exciting brand.

Carlis Story

Charity Explainer

I was entusted by the charity Homeless Oxfordshire to tell Carli's real story. Given the tough and personal nature of the story I knew I would be dealing with, I wanted to use a style that captures the reality of life and its imperfections. This intention led me to chose a hand drawn style and to use Carlis actual voice as narration.
