Senior Freelance Motion Designer, UK
I'm a UK-based senior freelance motion designer working across sport, broadcast, and purpose-driven projects. Most of my work happens inside agency teams and studio pipelines, collaborating with creative agencies on brand and campaign animation built for real production environments — senior-level execution, dependable delivery, and under real deadline pressure. I also work directly with in-house marketing and comms teams who want that same level of experience without an agency in between.

I work primarily in Adobe After Effects and Cinema 4D, combining 2D and 3D motion to support brand campaigns, sports content, and complex subject matter, with Cavalry increasingly part of the toolkit for fast-turnaround, agency-facing work.
The work spans character animation, kinetic typography, and modular motion toolkits. Across sectors, the focus is consistent: clear, purposeful animation that makes complicated ideas accessible, whether that's introducing a sport to a new audience, communicating environmental systems to a general public, or delivering campaign content that integrates cleanly into an established brand system under real production pressure.
“Simon brought strong ideas and thoughtful animation solutions, not just execution. That level of collaboration is hugely valuable in projects with a lot of volume and tight timelines. And I think I speak for the whole team when I say that we love your energy, you always bring a calm and structured mood to the meetings and with every communication. That makes the work really enjoyable.”
