Ricky Martin

Ricky Martin is an animator for the webseries KateModern. He is responsible for animations done by Charlie. Charlie's animations are always hand-made, for Ricky believes that they have a more organic feel to them that way.

Born in Harlow, England, Ricky studied art at Hartford Regional College. He then went on to study media at the University of the West of England. While in college, he made some films for festivals and had his first individual production, Post It Prison, scouted by the British Counsil.

Currently, Ricky is writing a short film, which he hopes to shoot in the coming months. He is also part of an acoustic double act called "Ricky Martin and Neil Young."

In late 2007, Ricky got a job with Aadrman Animations, which is best known for its cartoon "Wallace and Gromit." He works in the editing department and does all of the video encoding for Youtube, iTunes, and other such websites.
