Hi there, I'm Hamish (Popplehoop) from Sydney Australia. I'm a veteran animator (for TV, corporate, science and academia), looking for opportunities to produce animations and tell stories in my naturally absurdist style, for entertainment purposes, with the intent to ideally develop a pilot for a TV series. I have a few ideas on the go, mostly satirical and surreal skits about technology and society. But as most of you will know, these creative ventures require a lot of time, and its easy to lose momentum in between "bread and butter" jobs. So I'm eager to meet like minded creatives to explore ongoing opportunities with.
I have written many concepts and synopses myself, but my weak spots are writing dialogue (scripts) and voice acting - two essential components of animation. As my style is particularly surreal, slapstick and kooky, I need to find collaborators who share a similar sense of humour and absurdity.
Here are a few examples of work I have created since 2000.

Mythbusters snippets - animations I made for the pop science sensation on Discovery Channel 15 years ago.

Plus I have loads more deranged snippets and rough ideas on my hard drive.
If you'd like to chat about creative ideas free to message me at popplehoop2@gmail or through this channel.
Thanks!
Hamish
