Video killed the radio star

About Me

I'm an animator/designer/illustrator residing in Melbourne Australia.
I love a great music video or two (or three...)

I try to do my bit for the environment and conserve, recycle, reuse etc. to the best of my ability (though I could do a whole lot more). I support Greenfleet because I have to drive a lot.
