I was tasked with creating a series of engaging introduction videos for the renowned online learning platform, FutureLearn.

The characters were inspired and designed to look like the subjects that we had found stock footage.

Powering Progress
Agency - sqzd.

I worked on this along side one other animator. The goal was to highlight the client’s value chain, from the initial delivery by ships to the refinery, through storage, processing, and distribution to customers. This journey emphasizes the product’s vital role across industries like aviation, mining, agriculture, and retail, showcasing its significant impact on communities.

The video has been updated for public release, with adjustments to the colours, script/voice-over, and music track to maintain confidentiality.

Green Ledger

I created a video for this client that highlights the importance of precise emissions estimation.

Additionally, I had the chance to handle the sound design, which played a key role in enhancing the overall animation.

Sustainable Energy For All
Agency - sqzd.

We were tasked with creating a video that steered away from SEFA's previous designs, paving the way for a fresh, innovative approach. I developed the initial styleframes, which were approved as the foundation for the project. The work was then divided among three animators, with each of us bringing one video to life in this new style. This is my contribution to the series, a video focused on delivering impactful insights on carbon-free energy.
