    Hello! Tell us a bit about yourself

    I’m Dan Silverstone.

    I’m a freelance motion designer and director operating under the superhero pseudonym ‘Pica’, specialising in mixed media 2D and faux 3D motion graphics.

    A stylish home office featuring multiple monitors on a desk, accentuated by vibrant green plants, motivational wall art, and modern lighting

    I create, make, render, encode, and upload projects with influences taken from video games, physics-based simulations, and everything in between.

    I worked for Birmingham City Council for far too many years until I joined a design agency (GRIN) in Birmingham, where I levelled up, became an Art Director, and then bid farewell during the lockdown years!

    A bookshelf adorned with books, action figures, and decorative stickers, partially obscured by vibrant green foliage from a nearby plant

    I’ve since pursued my passion for motion design through my freelance career, collaborating with a variety of design studios and a range of renowned brands.

    Take us through your setup
