Hi, my name is Andrew Robinson. I am an award-winning Digital Creative Director with over 10 years of experience across a range of creative industries. I am currently looking to work with clients to create ETHICAL, ESSENTIAL and ENGAGING content.

I have studied various art practices over the years. Namely at Newcastle College of Art, receiving a foundation degree distinction in graphic design. Moving on to study at the prestigious Arts Institute at Bournemouth, gaining a BA Hons in animation production and specialising in stop motion animation.

I began my career at the award-winning London studio, Powster. I worked alongside great creative minds, creating content with some of the biggest music labels and most well-renowned film distribution companies in the world.

We’ve been working together to produce a variety of short documentary films showcasing all the awesome the studio is building. These films are Screened online, at architectural festivals and at global awards submissions.
