After 10 years of writing and directing television commercials in Tasmania, Elliot sold his house, gave his dog to his parents and moved to London. Now he works on animated movies, illustrations for other people and art pieces for himself. The short films based on his characters, Boxhead and Roundhead, have played to great acclaim at festivals all over the world. He has abandoned London for the Big Apple, which he loves. He’s currently slogging through the mire required to bring Boxhead and Roundhead to the big screen.

i love this piece of animation. Elliot did a fantastic job.
Thanks for taking the time to say so, Stuart : )
This is really cute. My wife and I watched it and enjoyed the whole thing. The style of animation is perfect for the story. I also like your website. It’s simple, but it works really well and your demoreel is fantastic. I hope to someday have as many great pieces of animation in my demoreel as you do
Thanks again for the amazing work.
Well that’s very kind, Josh.
The only way to have a bunch of great pieces is to keep making things.
Good luck!
Hi, Elliot. I loved this short very much. Your love and passion for animation clearly shows through. Thanks for making good cartoons and keeping fun, appealing animation alive into the 21st century. The world needs them, and young student cartoonists everywhere like me also need them to get inspired. Again, thank you!
Heya Roberto.

i love how you used moans and groans to show how there feeling.
I do the same in real life.
I enjoyed it soooo much! Best of luck with your quest.
