Start with a scene worth seeing.
I develop the concept before the finished images: the animal, its world and the moment the film will follow. Research informs the reconstruction; imagination shapes the story.
Behind Primeval Atlas
From an idea
to a living world.
I develop the stories, characters and worlds, then choose the tools that help bring them to the screen. The work moves through design, shot direction, editing and sound, with decisions and revisions at every stage.

The decisions behind the images.
Give the animal a world.
Depending on the project, I bring together drawing, 3D modelling and image work in Photoshop or Illustrator, alongside AI-assisted image and motion tools. I develop the references, direct the shots and choose what belongs in the film.
Make the shots work together.
The finished film takes shape in the edit. Shot selection, pacing and sound turn individual clips into a scene with a rhythm of its own.
