I turn complex ideas into clear, engaging communication

Freelance senior motion graphics designer  for marketing, brands,  explainers and training to presentations and social content.

I work directly with clients and alongside teams, delivering projects end-to-end or stepping in when extra support is needed.

Problems I help solve:

“How do I explain this complex subject to people who have never heard of it?”

“How do I develop a brand that moves?”

"We need to someone that can work across digital, print and motion"

Business & Non-Profit Animations

I help organisations explain complex ideas through motion design.

For more than 20 years I’ve transformed technical, business and information-heavy subjects into clear visual stories. From product launches and presentations to explainers, training and internal communications and presentations, I create animation that helps audiences understand complex information quickly and confidently.

My background combines motion graphics, information design, presentations and visual communication, with experience delivering content for organisations including Roche, GSK, Airbus, BAE Systems, Babcock and the NHS. My core expertise is in After Effects and visual storytelling, supported by a growing knowledge of Cinema 4D and I am learning Unreal Engine for 3D visualisation and real-time content workflows, alongside growing use of AI-assisted creative tools. I am a creative, but also a lover of technology and what it can help us achieve.

I have used Leigh numerous times to flex our studio capabilities at times with short notice to which he has always been flexible and accommodating. Leigh is as solid as a rock, safe pair of hands along with being a proactive thinker, creative and a technical wizard when required, he's just a lovely human where nothing is to much. It's always a pleasure to work together.

Jonathan - Creative Director - Innesco​

I have worked with Leigh across a range of projects, from vector-based animations to corporate videos. His skill in building slick motion graphics, animations, and video editing is only second to his calm and professional approach to projects. Nothing is a problem, no ridiculous timeline is unachievable, and no last-minute 'feedback' is an issue. If I have Leigh on the project it will be completed to an incredibly high standard, quickly and efficiently, and most of all it will be an enjoyable experience.

We have worked with Leigh on several animation projects, all of which he has given 110%. He has a great 'can do' attitude, even when timings are really tight! And always comes to the table with lots of ideas to bring the creative idea to life.​
