Work

After a successful period of freelancing John spent 10 years at post production house Flix Facilities before setting up Head in the Clouds in early 2017.

​During his time at Flix he worked on a wide range of TV productions. From kids (Postman Pat SDS, Toby's Travelling Circus, The Furchester Hotel) to hard hitting documentaries (Crimes that shook Britain, Fred & Rose).

He also designed and created the opening titles for Little Explorers, My Team: The Cheerleaders and the BAFTA Award winning My Life and Old Jack's Boat.

​His work was integral to the BAFTA nominated Poppies and the multi award winning My Life episodes: Me, My Dad and his Kidney, I am Leo and Born to Vlog.

Since starting Head in the Clouds he has continued to produce vfx and animation sequences for TV, including World's Wildest Weather, World's Worst Flights, The One Pound Houses: Britain's Cheapest Street, My Life: Coming to Britain and Russell Howard & Mum: Globetrotters.

​Film projects include Shed of the Dead, Hunger Times, The Old Turk and Habit.

“We have commissioned John to work with us on a number of projects across the Trust. What John produces is fun, innovative and different to other companies out there. More importantly our children and parents love the final product too! We will definitely commission John for more things in the future. “

Sophie Murfin Executive Principal, Wise Owl Trust
