ABOUT
My stop-motion journey started with early attempts at bringing handmade puppets to life, by playing with the image gallery keys on a compact camera. Many years later while studying a Bachelor of Screen Arts (Hons), I had the opportunity to join a student collaboration that pioneered stop-motion at Massey University, (and in the process fostered a niche passion shared between some students).
Through later work done in my Honours Research I explored how to democratise stop-motion as a practice. While my education to date has been fruitful, I’ve come to realise how little I really know. My focus now is to upskill. Recently I’ve trained under the Aardman Academy’s Stop Motion Industry 2 Course, (covering lip-sync and full body performance).
I hope you can follow my journey from here.
