I drew a hat. I know it looks like a background painting but it isn't- it's going to be on a character's head, which will move around like heads do. Much like Double King's crown though, it will co...

When people ask me what I'm making I say "a film about frogs", but I'm not sure how true that is, because this is the first shot I've animated with any frogs in it for a good long while. I should s...

Hello! Welcome to February, and thanks to old and new supporters for all your help!
Today I sent away the Pen Pal tier drawings for January. Here's one of them, which I have digitally colour...
Bricks! Here are some of those, in a big tube, and you are in it. But how???
Well, the bricks are redrawn frame-by-frame, but I made this "digital grid" as a guide to draw over. A grid is a ...
The toes from that last gif are back. And this time they mean business! Looking forward to making the ground zip along underneath them in completely broken perspective

Obviously quite an unfinished shot here, but in its current state, I thought it offered some good insight into my very dumb animation practices.
Some big nerd: Start by working out the key p...
The extensive amount of writing on the subject suggests that a character doing "a take" was a staple of animation at some point in time, but I do not remember the last time I had to animate one.
And so is this thing! Who are they, and what are they doing hiding in the dark? We won't find out until a while later in the film- for now, they're just a face peering out from the shadows.

My films are made digitally (mostly). Usually, the final designs, as well as the animation, are both made entirely in the computer since the animation methods impact the design. But when I hit a me...

A dumb quick WIP of what I did this morning. Namely, lip-syncing a pair of yellow-tailed black cockatoos to a field recording. I'm not sure anyone has animated these birds before, which is a shame ...

Hello all! I wanted to share a little bit of visual development regarding a character in the film. I haven't made her FINAL design yet, but I'm a couple of shots away from her being introduced, and...

Here's a little thing nobody has seen before, aside from this one very slimy record executive!
It was 2016. I'd managed to save up some money the previous year, and so I thought I would take...
Patreon supports gif files right? Hope so. Here's a bug I made today for the film!

Here's a frame from the shot I'm animating at the moment, which introduces a new character. Everybody, meet "Human"! That may not be his real name, but it's what I'm calling him for now be...

Before starting this Patreon and working on other people's animation full time, I was usually too burnt out at the end of the day to work on my own animations, so making music was my main personal ...

As mentioned in my last post, we were moving house- we needed a place with space for an office AND a nursery. That has subsequently happened, and the office is now in this funny wallpaper room. Her...

I'm moving house, and tomorrow is the part where I pack up my computer and desk and animation stuff and take it all away, so that will be out of action for a bit this week.

Well, I've finished my first months worth of ink drawings, which will be posted off to my Patreon Pen Pals very soon. Here's a peek at a couple of them- perhaps one of these will be yours! A lot of...
