Assasins Show visuals at Sheffield Crucible
For the opening of a new run of Steven Sondheim's 1970 musical theatre piece, Assasins, at the Crucible in Sheffield, a new stage was constructed which incorporated over 20 television screens. I was asked to provide animated material for these screens. Art Directed by Yeast Culture, the visuals were designed to be operated by the show's lighting technician. The work was devised to sychronise with the script, and so act as part of a dynamic scenery design.

Jamie Cullum tour interactive graphics
Several linear animations were commissioned by Yeast Productions for use during Jamie Cullum's 'Catching Tales' tour, which runs from October 2005 to March 2006. The animation that accompanied the track "My Yard" featured butterflys that would create the illusionary spectacle of a magic garden. "Mindtrick" featured musical instruments treated in impossible ways in a variety of locations.

One of the interactive elements of the show included a graphic forest that would grow if Jamie was serenading it. If there were no serinade, the forest would start to recede...

One successful candidate will walk away with £50,000 to make their proposal a reality. The award is organised by PRS (Performing Rights Society).

HMPos 1.01
A collaboration with the art class inmates at Exeter Prison, HMPos 1.01 was an animation commissioned by Animated Exeter, Exeter Prison, and Spacex Gallery, Exeter. The animation was to be displayed next to a Jodi.org exhibition at Spacex Gallery, which had a great impact on the direction of the storyboard. Nevertheless, Exeter inmates were able to develop a complex and layered story about their experiences.
