Production Management and Consultancy

I have worked in animation and games for over twenty years, moving between art and production roles, which has allowed me to gain a very deep knowledge of the traditional 2D animation pipeline.  I have successfully managed high-end projects, giving my all as I led teams large and small to successful project completion.  I am deeply passionate about supporting others in developing their skills, and thus I am happy and able to provide both production consultancy and training.  Please read below for some of the areas that I am able to cover, and if you are looking for training, please also see my teaching and training page for my range of experiences in the field of education. Any training and consultancy will be tailored to your specific needs, and fees can be negotiated based on your circumstances.
