'REACT' Charity Campaign
As part of my university degree, we needed to create a a short film to raise awareness for the charity REACT which focuses on helping women and child refugees in terms of their education. It was firstly animated in Adobe Animate, and then cleaned up in Photoshop and composited in After Effects. All aspects from character design to final backgrounds were also created in Photoshop. The charity approached me and chose me to represent their charity with my film for their media coverage.
Assault Course Animation
The brief for this assignment was to animate a mammal doing an 'assault course' travelling in at least 5 different ways. I decided to make it traditionally with pencil and a lightbox because I feel the aesthetic is nicer and I enjoy the challenge of it!
My Section for a University Group Project
As part of my university course, we created a short film as part of a group. The idea behind our film was two girls playing the game 'the floor is lava'. We each animated a 20 second segment to produce a 1 minute film. I did a majority of the concept art and made the backgrounds in Photoshop and animted the characters in Adobe Animate.

'The Lighthouse Keeper' Graduate Film
For my final film I wanted to create something inspiration and something where I
focus my energy on the design aspect. I did all of the backgrounds in Photoshop and
Animated in Flash and then cleaned up in Photoshop. I feel like this film really is a final
collective of all the skills I had learnt in my three years at Universtity.
