Weird Al Yankovic asked me to do the intro to his new polka video. My first thought was “woah, really?” This guy was like the god of music video parodies when I was a kid in the 1980s, so its amazing to see he is still out there inflicting his madness upon the world. The video has contributions from a whole load of other animators as well.

With Bob & David
Absolute legends David Cross and Bob Odenkirk asked me to do the titles for their new netflix show. I didn’t actually realise how legendary they were when I was talking to them on the phone about it, which is kind of embarrassing in hindsight, but we never had Mr Show in the UK.
Since then I have clued myself up on who they are and all the amazing stuff they’ve done, and it makes me glad I got the chance to become a small part of it. They even asked me to do the music.

Dancing in the Middle
Comedy icon and podcasting podcaster Adam Buxton asked me to make a video to promote his new album “Buckle Up”. He let me choose the song, and this was the song I chose.
Anyone under the age of 30 might have trouble recognising the various hi-fi equipment involved, but I couldn’t really use any modern stuff because its all ones and zeros floating around in the clouds these days. I love wires. My house is full of them, and I trip over them all the time, but I still love them.

Sometimes, you just have to make a video about a goose. There is no avoiding it. Amazingly I actually drew a storyboard for this video. This is what it looks like:

Betray
Music video for the band In Lumine. This was an interesting departure from my usual style. I found an old piece of film about how to have a happy marriage, and it seemed like it had such a sinister undercurrent, almost like it was made for this song.
