During my time at college is when I started to look at animating the mind; making some short animations about dreams and the thought of being trapped. Directing my film ‘Broken Wave’ in my final year of the Arts Institute at Bournemouth has allowed me to develop this love of expressing inner mind states this time by visually interpreting another’s thoughts. Within my second year at the Arts institute of Bournemouth I worked on ‘Fish,’ an animated short about a little girl and her quest to find happiness, winner of Animex 2D animation category.
