Storyboarding for TV series for the last lots of years has been keeping
me busy. It started way back in the late 70‘s in the UK where I learned
my trade. I traveled there from Ottawa, Canada where I was co-
producing a successful kid’s show called, ‘Smart Alec’. My first
animation job soon led to ‘boarding and designing music videos for
The Jackson Five show! That was fun.
By the time I returned home I’d spent two years at the Oscar winning
Richard Williams Studio. This was some time before his famous
directing of animation for Roger Rabbit. It was a privilege to work and
learn from the greats of that era.
More animation designing and ‘boarding in Toronto, Sydney and New
York, where I also got into comic cartooning for magazines such as
National Lampoon and for the birth of RAW magazine, the mag which
kicked off the new era of graphic novels. Eventually I’d moved back to
the cold white north to raise a family. For the next 20 years or so I
toiled in the fields of TV cartoons.
Now I work part time in the business, mostly on Arthur, to whom we
are grateful for his, deserved, longevity. Meanwhile, I work on my own
projects.
