Sam Church

​
-
-writing & illustrating kids' history books (including a history of St Paul's Cathedral),
-
-leading all kinds of workshops for the likes of RWA, The Holbourne Museum and Green Man Festival
-
-scribing/live drawing at events and (as a direct spin off) making explainer films
-
-singing and making visuals for the Fantasy Orchestra,
-
- a BAFTA nomination for an animated film for CBBC's Anti Bullying Week.
-
...and making props for and extraing in the occasional pop video.
​
Generally if it involves fun, conversation, making something cool happen or helping people tell a story he's in.
Occasionally wears a stupid hat to make himself seem more interesting.
Sam uses the BV Open Studio as a chance to air the stuff he does for fun - including gig visuals and drawings of musicians playing live - and to guff on about the joy of picking up a pencil from time to time.
