Hi I'm Billy, I run Toastie Animation a UK animation studio. I love dabbling in all aspects of animation and have worked in everything from preschool animation to commercials. I get energised by working with amazing artists and bringing characters to life through animation.

I never knew I was going to end up in animation, but thanks to a teacher who saw my love for illustration got me to join her class, I get to do what I love for the rest of my life. I have worked on the Hulu Animated series Solar Opposites and am now working full time as a digital designer, getting to create animations for Volvo and Logitech. I adore the freedom of bringing anything our minds can imagine to life and creating depth to our worlds and characters. And I would never change that for anything in the world.

"After graduating in 2012, my partner Iván Carmona and I founded Sunshine Animation in order to be able to keep working on making projects together. Since then, we have focused on making 2D traditional animation trailers and video game cutscenes, and we are very lucky to have an amazing team to helps us. Since we are a small studio of only 8 people, I get to work on multiple stages in each project we make. I would say my main role is that of an art director, but I also work on the storyboards and animatics, even making time for animation and clean up too."
