Final year Project Dax And Skylar
Created an animated short of two characters named Dax and Skylar. A
fun cartoon that was animated in Toon Boom Harmony and After
Effects. I created character models like in most animation studios who
work with Toon Boom to show model creation and rigging.
Backgrounds and assets were painted in Clip Studio and edited in After
Effects. I made a storyboard, animatic and recorded my work process
for this project and printed out an art book for all art that was made for
this project.

Group Project Shakespeare anthology

During a university module called Minor Project we had to be in groups
and create an anthology comic together and publish it. We were 4
people in our and chose a non-copyrighted subject to make a comic
about. We are selling our comic in Newcastle Traveling Man and the
comic is on display in the Shakespeare museum (Ask for reference).
I was organizing and doing research for this project and have created a
blog to keep all out references in place.
Anthology ‘’Trust’’

Space cat. Comic has been and still is being sold in various of comic
