Creative Writing
Samples of my writing for kids education
I wrote all of the concepts, stories and scripts for this educational games.
Aye, Aye, Captain!
My original phonics series
Episode 1
One of my favourite songs that I wrote for this series
I have created a series of six educational, animated videos (each approximately 10 mins long).
Having spent many years working in eLearning, I wanted to create my own, neurodiverse educational content that could successfully teach “tricky phonics” to young reluctant readers and children struggling with dyslexia.
I have more episodes planned (scripted and storyboarded).
Aye, Aye, Captain! Promo
Jurassic Grill - Promo
I created a short, animated advert for a local restaurant franchise from concept to completion (commissioning bespoke music, sound effects and a professional voiceover to bring the project to life).
Final advert
I created the artwork in Photoshop & animated everything in After Effects
Storyboard
I picked out some interesting features from the restaurant and sketched graphics that I thought would illustrate these in a magical way that would appeal to children. I sketched ideas and wrote lines for the script as I put the storyboard together.
Backgrounds with Animated Characters
Animatic - development
I put together a few animatics and scripts that I felt described this fun, dinosaur themed restaurant to families.
I presented this version to the client and they loved it! They asked me to remove some of the information that was site specific (as they have other branches that don't offer the same facilities). They were also keen to air this on TV so they asked me to cut it down to 30 seconds.
Characters and Props
I designed human characters who look like explorers to highlight that dining in this immersive, themed restaurant is an adventure for the whole family.

Evanbridge Awakening
I wrote and self-published my first novel, Evanbridge Awakening. I would love to one day bring this to the screen.
