Hello there.
I'm Alex - a 16 year old student from the UK, with a passion for creative works.
I currently create content based in animation, video editing and UI/UX design. I also create comic art for both myself and others.
I have developed a series of informative animations for the 'Lockergnome' YouTube channel, managed by Chris Pirillo. Here you can find some of the work that I have made for both myself and other people, in one easy place. If you would like to contact me, you can drop me an email using the link below, or tweet me on Twitter

Thanks for looking at my portfolio!
The second installment in my ‘Everybody Hates Ponies’ series.
This is an animated segment of the audio podcast ‘Wisenheimers’, featuring Yotam Perel and Max Gilardi. I tried to go for a mixture of frame by frame and tweening in this project.
This is the longest animation I have put out, at the point of upload. It is also the most collaborative cartoon I have ever done. The crew and I put a lot of effort into creating this satirical My Little Pony parody, all about everyone’s least favourite character - Rarity.
Here is a quick animation I did for DeviantArt, created in Flash; based on my favorite gaming franchise, Rayman!

At the start of a new year, I like to make a demo reel of what work I have done thus far. In early-2013, I made this reel to show my development of animation over 2012.
I am a big fan of the online series ‘Game Grumps’. I am not the only one. Since its premiere, many talented animators have decided to take audio snippets from the show, then animate them. This is my attempt at just that. In comparison to my other work, I have to say that my drawing skills have improved since I started animating.
Here is the fourth cartoon I produced for the ‘Lockergnome’ YouTube channel. This time, it’s about fixing problems you may run into on Facebook. This is shown by the movement of pie charts, cursors and other objects. From this video, I found that I enjoyed not just making cartoons, but animating objects in general; starting a strong passion with UX design.
Here is my third cartoon for the ‘Lockergnome’ YouTube channel; second of the ‘informative’ series, as I like to call it. This time, it’s about appreciating the value of products; even if they’re free. Once again, it was great to work with Chris on a project.
Here is my second cartoon for the ‘Lockergnome’ YouTube channel. This time, it is more informative and serious. However, I loved to make this one. It really was great exploring Flash whilst making it, I learned so much. Plus, it was great to work with Chris again!
This is the first sign of my animation in a ‘Lockergnome’ video; placed within a ‘Pirillo Vlog’. I am very proud to be able to share my animation with so many people, thanks to the amazing efforts of Chris Pirillo. It was amazing to work with him and Diana.
