Freelance Motion Design Update

2017 was a great year, I’ve been lucky enough to work on some wonderful projects with some ace clients and agencies, if 2018 is as good then I’ll be a happy motion designer!

As it was a busy one, I’ve only now had the chance to update my portfolio with some of the motion design projects I worked on last year, due to the nature of the game I unfortunately can’t share everything I work on. Who knows, maybe in the future I’ll be able to list those projects too!

Saving the planet with motion design

I also started a new initiative towards the end of 2017 which has been a runaway success: for every project I work on, I now give a percentage to the World Land Trust on behalf of my clients! So, whenever you hire me, you’re also helping save the planet too. Read more about the initiative to plant trees with motion design.

Building Loop

Alongside my freelance work, I also continued to work on building up Loop creating stock, templates, and scripts for After Effects in my spare time. Loop really has been a great side project, it’s an outlet for me to explore new motion design techniques, and gives me the opportunity to create projects like: Chronos - a sci-fi HUD template for After Effects that combines the two things I really enjoy: sci-fi and motion design!

Farewell websites

2017 also marked a turning point in my freelance life: a shift to 100% motion design. I made the decision a couple of years ago, and now the transition is complete. No more web development. This means I can focus entirely on building my motion design skills further.

Here’s to 2018! If you like what you see and need a freelance motion designer, feel free to get in touch!

Rewilding the planet with freelance animation and motion design

We've only got one planet, and right now it needs all the help it can get. Climate change and biodiversity loss are massive challenges that we need to tackle head on.

That's why, for every freelance animation project over £1000 a donation of 1% of the total budget will be made to the World Land Trust, on your behalf.

The money will go towards WLT's "buy an acre" programme; buying up and protecting vital habitats around the world, and helping fight against climate change.

Any motion design projects under £1000 will have a tree planted on your behalf.

Acres saved so far:

Thanks to my wonderful clients and the animations we've produced, enough money has been donated to save around:

17.5 Acres of vital habitats around the world.

Just think, your animated explainer video or logo animation could also be helping fight the climate crisis!
