The APPeal of Pok Pok

 The first two stories I wrote for Pok Pok have become episodes on their official YouTube channel.

Pok Pok is an educational app for kids, and they have an associated YouTube channel that does gentle learning and entertainment videos using toys and characters from the app.

I was approached about working with them, and was happy to agree to write storylines for them. I've done a lot of toyplay before, so this was nothing new - but it's always nice to make some charming, simple little tales for younger audiences (especially when my other job is making robots punch each other!)

It's a lot less script intensive, the team like to adapt things as they shoot and match the particular voice they want. But I'm generating concepts and writing out the full plots for them to take into the studio.

The first episode is about Gardening and the second is a mystery about a Giant Egg! (with another in production on the way!)

Enjoy!

Gift of the Gabba

 Like the prodigal child I was brought back for another round of Yo Gabba Gabbaland promo cutdowns for the second season of the Apple TV show.

You can see them rolling out on the official YouTube channel from today!

emojinal Times

 Bit of a throwback to when I worked on emojitown in 2022. I came on board as a creative producer around episode 36 - helping to shape the interpretations and animation from the scripts, sadly not able to write on the show (although that was the plan if the second season was greenlit!)

I did get to do a couple of voices - but a lot of my creativity went into the thumbnails, especially for the compilations (as they tended to be thematic rather than episode specific) some of my favourites below.

The idea was to create imagery that worked as an engaging YouTube thumbnail, whilst also working as a standalone piece of art or titlecard.

(I didn't 'create' these - they were made by the wonderful animation studio, but I would brief them and sometimes give preliminary character designs and layout sketches of what I was imagining.)

A bit of a Souls-like themed bossfight thumbnail - with a touch of Monster Hunter.

Horror thumbnail, some Stranger Things references as well as the Mystery Inc. gang from Scooby Doo

Superheroes - I designed most of these personas from scratch (Jo's came from E33 Superheroes and Jess' was loosely based on her look from the same episode.)

More superheroes - again, only Unicorn Man and Poophead had existing designs (from a previous compilation thumbnail.)

A really fun Spider-Man reference in this one for the Fleas episode.

Thanksgiving compilation. I just thought what is the most disruptive thing Poophead could do for the holiday.

Julia compilation - had fun leaning into her artist roots for the different styles in the background.

Far from the only thumbnails I worked on - but it's fun looking back on the show after so long.

Transform and Roll Out!

 I've been deep in the Transformers mines for some time and not surfaced for air - but the show it doing really great!

We're up to Episode 9 which is the end of the first mini-arc in the story, and there's a compiled version of all the episodes so far available on the channel right now!

That's just under 45mins of pure Cyberworld goodness, and ideal to catch up if you've not been watching until now.

Give it a watch over on the Transformers Official YouTube.

New episode (10) will drop on the 4th of October, so keep your eyes peeled!

All Aboard the Transformers Omnibus

 My show Transformers: CYBERWORLD premiered just over a month ago - we're still deep in production, but I'm so pleased with how it is going and the reception it has garnered from the fandom.

If you haven't yet seen it, there is an episode 1-4 compilation released today that will catch you up on the story so far:

Transformers: CYBERWORLD on the TransformersOfficial YouTube channel

Do please check it out - and let me know what you think. New episodes will be going live (nearly) every Saturday until June 2026.

All on the TransformersOfficial YouTube channel. Subscribe to keep on top of it.

Til All Are Won!

The first official teaser trailer for the project I've been working on has finally dropped!

May I introduce Transformers: CYBERWORLD a brand new YouTube web-series from Hasbro Studios UK.

I've been working on this for nearly 10 months at this point and I've not been able to talk about it at all. But my name is on the IMDb and the show is officially announced so I am copping up to it.

I developed the show for series from a concept (and toyline) provided by the team at Hasbro, and I am the Head Writer for the 36 episode run.

It's so very exciting and I'm so pumped to share the show with the fandom and world. The first episode premieres on 12th July this year - just over a month away. We're still in the thick of production (and will be well up until the finale) but it's coming to life!

I've already seen the first few episodes coming together and hopefully you all love it as much as we do. The team is fantastic, the cast is brilliant, I can't wait for people to see what we've all worked so hard to produce.

Big love and big thank.
