I’m a 2D character animator and aspiring filmmaker from Bray, Co. Wicklow. My work leans into humour and irreverence, while holding onto the rough, energetic feel of a napkin sketch – even when things get cleaned up. My graduate film 'Our Father' is an animated satire set in a dystopian Christian Ireland, where a washed-up street preacher tries to win back the souls drifting toward a late-night porno shop by preaching the Lord's 'good word' through erotic dance. Naturally, the Priest Police aren’t impressed. The film uses scratchy black-and-white animation and expressive, hand-drawn mark-making to amplify the chaos and absurdity of the story. As a student film, it was also an opportunity to test how far irreverence and religious commentary could stretch within the medium. The goal was to create something provocative and ridiculous, without relying on polish or permission.
