About

I am a freelance Flash character animator and cartoonist based in London.

I have worked on all manner of animation projects for companies in the UK and abroad including TV show pilots , music videos, promotional sequences, explainer videos, eCards, Messenger content (winks, dynamic display pictures), emoticons/smileys and more. My animation work has appeared on TV and the web.

Following the popularity of my animated eCards , I recently signed a deal with a major US eCard company, www.123greetings.com, to produce cards exclusively for them. I currently have around 30 eCards on the site with total sends close to 1 million. My eCards (from before the 123greetings deal) can also be found on www.123kort.dk in Denmark and www.wishawish.com in the UK.

Recently, I have worked on whiteboard animations, most notably creating an explanatory video for Ignite – sponsors of the British Skeleton team, ahead of their gold medal success at the Sochi Winter Olympics.

When required, I have also provided narration, voice characterization and music for my animations.

As a cartoonist, I have produced cartoons for newspapers, magazines, greetings cards, books, games, logos/mascots and much more. I have a weekly topical joke published in The Jewish News.

As well as working freelance, I teach courses in Cartooning at The Institute in London and have given talks on the subject at various exhibitions and corporate training days.

I am a member of the Cartoonists’ Club of Great Britain.
