This summer I worked with Hannah Robinson of Muckle Hen Productions to produce a short explainer video about medical abortion.
The video shown is in English for the UK, but is also in French, Swedish and Portuguese. 
I provided storyboards, character design and animation using Photoshop and After Effects, and edited to the 4 different voiceovers.  

You can find the storyboards and character designs in my portfolio.

In March I worked with Playdead Ltd to produce storyboards for this online campaign for Wondros, which I'm now pleased to share. You can find the storyboards over on the storyboard section of my portfolio. 

“Home Matters” is a national movement that is redefining the American Dream, believing that the New American Dream is one where every American lives in a safe, nurturing environment with access to quality education, healthcare, public spaces and community services. More than half a million people in the United States do not have a home, a quarter of these individuals are children.

Been having a great time working in Edinburgh at the studio Ko Lik since mid-August. Started in the storyboarding department, and have since moved on to compositing, with a few storyboard revisions here and there as required.

Learning to composite for stop motion animation has been an interesting experience (especially for a complete novice!). I think I'm getting the hang of it, mostly with the help of the patience of my co-workers and a wee bit of Googling. 

Now that I think I can safely say I've settled in, I'm more aware of my lack of personal drawing time. Or to be more specific, I haven't been factoring that into my time management thus far. It's a bit of a bummer, so I'm going to make an effort to draw on the train, during lunch and give myself doodle breaks.

The commute unfortunately takes up a lot of my time. I get home just before 7:30pm, and eating dinner (Tom's been in charge of making dinner, which is a massive relief), showering and drying hair takes me up to my  10pm bedtime. 10pm! That hasn't been my regular bedtime since primary school. But if I don't, getting up at 6:30pm is torture. With dark eye-circles. Time aside, I just straight up don't have the energy to do much other than doze on the couch watching TV (Mythbusters is the current favourite). 

Animation-wise, been enjoying watching Steven Universe, Teen Titans Go!, Wander Over Yonder, Gravity Falls, Haikyuu!! (surprisingly compelling volleyball anime) and Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun. Looking forward to the new and final season of The Legend of Korra.

Anyway, that's all for now. Hopefully will be updating with some personal drawings soon!
