Love this carousel post from Casdon! I shot these stop motions as one video, but splitting them out into individual little videos is a great way to maximise the content! 👏

🚀 Ways to work with me in 2024 🚀

How are you going to make your products stand out in 2024? Here are five ways you can work with me to get eye-catching marketing content in the new year.

1️⃣ My new subscription service, Stop-Mo & Grow. If you need monthly support creating a consistent flow of content for your biz, this service is for you. It gives you peace of mind that you’ll have a batch of attention-grabbing, results-focused content ready to go every month.

2️⃣ One-off stop motion projects. Sometimes you just need a video for an ad or one-off campaign. That’s what my stop motion packages are for! Want to show your products unboxing or unwrapping themselves? Need to explain exactly how your product works in a fun and engaging way? There’s a stop motion package for you.

3️⃣ Product photography. If you’re sending me your products to make stop motions, why not get product photography done at the same time? I can shoot your product pack shots, styled setups and lifestyle images – saving you time and hassle!

4️⃣ GIF stickers. Lately, I’ve had lots of people asking me to make bespoke animated GIF stickers of their products to use in Instagram stories and in email marketing. It’s a great way to get some unique visual content for your biz. AND I can help you make them publicly searchable, so your customers can use them too!

5️⃣ DM me for advice (this one’s completely free!). I’m always happy to give no-obligation advice and guidance in the DMs. So if you’re not sure what video content you should create this year, or how to make your biz stand out in noisy social feeds, just drop me a message.

➡️ Head to my link in bio to get started!

📌 Save this post as a reminder to level up your video content in 2024!

Thanks for another 5-star review!

Can’t wait to share this video, which I made for a emerging matcha tea brand 🍵

If you’re a past or present client of mine, I’d be really grateful if you could leave me a quick review on Google! Just search for ‘Visuool’ on Google and head to the Reviews section in the search results. Thank you!

Seeing my videos out in the wild is great! This was shot at tonies HQ in London, and that's my son, Joshua - he is a massive fan of the Toniebox!

Stop motion babygrow fun for .up! 🚀

ZIPPYUP asked me to make a video to promote their monthly babygrow subscription.

Showing the range of colours and designs was important for this one, so I made a clothes rail where I could animate the babygrows sliding in!

Then I got my 1-year-old son Boden involved, wearing one of the outfits in his cot (which he loved!).

I made this animation for Fourteen04 recently, to showcase their awesome new camera bag that’s designed for photographers on the go!

I’ve never done wedding photography, but I do know what it’s like carting camera gear around! Having a comfy bag like this with everything you need on hand while you shoot a wedding would be a life saver, I’m sure!

Any photographers out there who need a new camera bag? Definitely check out if you do!

How fun are these kids’ drinks bottles from Tiddlers & Nippers?!

I had a manic few weeks in the lead up to Christmas 2021, but was really glad I could fit this little animation in!

All the props were handmade from card and animated by hand too – it’s the best way!

Which is your favourite drinks bottle design? Diggers, dinos or fairies? 🚜 🦖 🧚‍♂️

Here’s another stop motion I made for The Cocktail Society – this time, explaining the features of their subscription boxes.

I’ve done a few of these ‘explainer’ style videos lately, and I’m really pleased with how much info you get across in a fairly small amount of time!

Also, I think this shows how adding sound effects can make a big difference to a stop motion! It kinda brings everything to life, don’t you think?

Can you spot all the different sound effects in this video? Let me know in the comments how many you can hear – there’s more than you think! 🧐

🎉 HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎉

I’ve been deliberately absent from Instagram for a while now. Just wanted some time away from it – and it’s been really nice!

But now I’m back. And about to hit the ground running with a ton of new projects to kick off 2022! Very excited to be working with some fantastic new small businesses (and some lovely returning clients, too!).

I shot this animation for The Cocktail Society at the end of last year, and thought it a fitting thing to post now as a big🖕🏻to Dry January! Because who invented that anyway?! 😂

When there’s a festive delivery and it’s these super cool patches from Pachee.

If your kids love customising their bags/clothes/blankets/hats etc, these colourful iron-on (or sew on!) patches will go down a treat 🌈

I got crafty for this video and created a few card props with a festive theme, then animated the patches on their delivery journey into a home and under the Christmas tree!

I was totally blown away when these baby gift boxes arrived at the studio from Moccy moo last month. The quality of everything is incredible!

I shot this one in lots of different stages, and pieced it together in the edit. There was so much going on, it needed a lot of careful planning!

One of the key messages we needed to get across was how simple it is to build your own gift box on the Moccy Moo website. So I made a mobile phone from card and did the hand gestures (she’s a real pro at this now 😂).

🎄🖍🎅 Christmas colouring fun! 🎅🖍🎄

Here’s a little festive stop motion I made for Rebs at The Crayon Bug!

Rebs makes the most beautiful handmade crayons in all sorts of shapes and sizes. And for Christmas, she’s put together this awesome advent calendar, complete with colour-your-own cards for each day leading up to Christmas!

Head over to The Crayon Bug to order yours – and check out Rebs’ own stop motion videos while you’re there! 👌

🚜🧚‍♀️🐠 Change it up! 🐠🧚‍♀️🚜

Being a dad of two boys, anything that makes life easier when you’re out and about is a winner for me!

So when got in touch wanting a stop motion to show off all the features of their changing mat bags, I knew exactly what to do!

With so many features and compartments to show in just 15 seconds, we made it a super quick and lively animation. I even brought our trusty pushchair into the studio for the final shot!

I love that these changing mat bags can carry so much stuff, but still fold up so neatly – and easily clip onto a pushchair too!

🧵🖌🎁 Let’s get crafting! 🎁🖌🧵

If you like crafting, you’ll love these subscription boxes from ! I filmed this stop motion to show three different kits and all the amazing stuff you get inside!

Emily at Oh Hello Maker has put so much effort and attention to detail into these boxes, with some lovely items included – such as a beautiful wooden-handled carving tool for the lino print box.

was my hand model again and put up with me directing her for about 3 hours while we filmed it 🙈🥴

Are you a crafter? If you are, which box would you choose? I’d be lino print all the way!

🌈🌧☂️ Save it for a rainy day! ☂️🌧🌈

Did you know the humble umbrella hasn’t changed its basic design… ever?! It’s stayed the same since the day it was invented. And all the flaws have stayed with it, too – turning inside out when it’s windy, dripping everywhere when you fold it up indoors etc etc.

is a brilliant family business, who’ve decided to change all that. And just look at the cool, brightly-coloured design statement they came up with!

It opens and closes in reverse, so when it’s wet, all the drips stay inside. You can get in the car and fold it up while you hold it out the window – meaning you never get wet! It’s genius, quite frankly.

Anyway, I had the amazing job of filming a stop motion promo video of the new Compact range a while back. It’s just gone live on Kickstarter and they hit their fundraising target within an hour!

What everyday things would you reinvent and why?!

🌿🌱🪴 Grow your own terrarium tutorial!🪴🌱🌿

How cool are terrariums?! A mini garden in a glass jar. And they’re basically self-sufficient! Amazing.

I filmed this little teaser clip (as well as a longer tutorial video with captions) for recently.

It’s to promote their workshops, where you can go and learn how to make your very own terrarium!

I got involved in this one as hand model – she did the real life moves, the stop motion magic moved everything else 😉
