About Me
Freelance animator working professionally on commissioned projects for various purposes and a wide range of clients. Focusing mainly on Flash and 2D animation, I am proficient in many Adobe packages, specifically Flash, Photoshop, Premiere and After Effects. I also offer traditional art styles as well as more-characterized artwork for graphic design, storyboarding, presentations and concept art.
Dedicated and highly passionate about my work, I am hugely-motivated to succeed and will always strive to achieve whatever the employer demands, working from pure concept work to extensively-detailed briefs. My primary focuses are professionalism and client satisfaction, and I will do my utmost to ensure that work is delivered to the highest standards.

Job Reviews on PPH
by Teodor R H on 07 May 2012
Excellent work and very professional.
by Warrick H on 03 May 2012
Graham did exactly what was promised in his quote, and the quality of his work was excellent. I would happily recommend him to anyone seeking a professional animator.
Work Experience
Working primarily alone but also co-operating with various other creative professionals, I have been creating professional animations for clients since securing my first contract in October 2010.
So far I have worked for two separate clients on animations, one an advertisement for a published illustrated educational book, and one creating advertisements for online publication, to advertise a series of e-novels.
My most-recent animated short film, 'Eddie', was shown at the 2010 FLIP Festival in Wolverhampton.

Animator at Serpentine Films
Completed an animation loop for proof of concept work for animation studio Serpentine Films. Work primarily consisted of cutting out parts from a solid existing image and then replacing background in said image in order to get movable animation parts, which were then put into Flash and animated. Final piece contained more than 170 animated layers each moving independently.

Education
I have graduated from the University of Wolverhampton with a BA (Hons) degree in Animation, graded at a 2:1. For this I completed several pieces of work including numerous animated shorts as well as completing their formal education on animation history and practices.
