Today I was very excited to chat with Hannah Camacho, host of BasicBrainHeart podcast. I had a listen to a couple of her shows thought they were excellent - so I was very flattered when she asked if I would be interviewed. After a slow start - where I try to remember every detail of my youth (which mainly seems to consist of writing letters) I remembered some of the important lessons I picked up about getting into the industry. There is a whole series to enjoy from creatives from a wide range of backgrounds - Hope you enjoy it!

P.S I'd recommend hearing Jorge's conversation - it's packed full of wisdom!

I am thoroughly chuffed to have been involved in 10 brand new episodes of Shaun the Sheep for the BBC and Aardman. This marks my first experience as a story artist and director for Aardman Animations, AND my first TV series as a director for the BBC.

Monday 5th September, daily from 6pm on CBBC - please tune in and let me know what you think!!

Today I'm off to London to attend the Final Mix on Shaun the Sheep Series 5. I'll be working with an old friend of mine, the very talented Adrian Rhodes at Goldcrest Post (who mixed the sound on my short film The Weatherman).

I am very lucky to be attending Animex Asia this year - talking about my work on the Shaun the Sheep movie. I hope to share some insights and tips with students at KDU university in Kuala Lumpur.
