Short Films

I used to have a long, long story here about how I became interested in animation, went into film.

And then another long ramble about my proudest work.

However, I’ve come to the point that every time I make a new work, it is indeed my new proudest work, and so having to rewrite this page every time something new came out was an absolute pain.

So instead of rambling on about why this piece or that piece was fun to do, I’m just going to instead let you have a gallery of images, and the relevant links to the films, because I’m sure they speak for themselves (also, none of them are longer than six minutes. So I’m sure you have time.)
