So, what do you do?

I do all things motion at Ewe Agency. I use visual effects, animation and other techniques to create artwork for media such as web, television or film. With the increasing prevalence of video content online, I find myself working on almost anything, for any digital platform. Working closely with the creative team at Ewe we collaborate to come up with great design concepts and solutions to suit our client’s needs. Whilst keeping up to date on the latest graphic design techniques too.

What has inspired you lately?

I find inspiration in a variety of people. A chap who particularly inspired me is someone who provides an opportunity for young creatives to flex their muscles, in learning how to develop and pitch big ideas. Whilst having been through a lot himself personally, he continues to provide a space for like-minded people to get involved in a 12 week programme learning how to develop big ideas quickly and pitch them confidently. This was something I was lucky enough to be a part of in the past and came away inspired for my future in the creative industry.

What was the last brilliant idea you had?

To hand make a giant chunky yarn blanket. I love crafting, so I tried my hand at ‘extreme knitting’ which I had never done before, using giant needles and thick yarn – turned out fab, I was so pleased and it’s super cosy!
