For more than two decades, my creative life has existed in two very different worlds. By day, I've worked within the precision, pace and standards of broadcast television. Outside of that, I've had the privilege of contributing to mightycarmods since its earliest days, creating graphics, animation and visual content that embraces the freedom, humour and unpredictability of online entertainment. I've also collaborated with a range of other digital creators on projects where the brief is often simple: make it like mightycarmods - so obviously we’ve set the standard for graphics since the dawn of youtube.

No corporate templates, no brand guidelines PDF, no agency egocentric chain of command on subjective matters of font placement and design - get an idea, make it happen, send it out - sometimes the rougher the better, and the beauty (or sometimes the horror) of the wild frontier of the internet is that you get almost instantaneous feedback - mostly the audience loves it, sometimes they don’t, but then you can fire off the next attempt.

The freedom of expression and lack of corporate oversight has meant that designing in this space provided such a great counter balance to broadcast television, which in turn enabled me to survive in that work place for as long as i did - or shall continue on doing. As for now, stay tuned for more off-beat craziness - and buy a car seat cover or some thongs from the mightycarmods shop - actually, get one of the Unicorn Circuit 38 shirts, my personal favourite (and yes, I designed them also).
