I wanted to be an animator originally. I went to art school; I went to art college and everything. But that screen was just calling me.

I feel like I became an artist by default. I went to art college, but my interest was always more towards film than painting or sculpture.

If I had gone to art college and everybody was being a conceptual artist, I probably would have wanted to be a portrait or landscape painter.

Mum and Dad always wanted me to do whatever I was happy doing. I nearly went to art college at 16, but decided to do a BTEC in performing arts.
