Fieldwork, fossils, and science communication are the core of my work.

Palaeontology Consultancy for Media & Creative Projects

I help creative teams bring prehistoric worlds to life with scientific accuracy and compelling storytelling.

My specialist research on Late Triassic and Late Cretaceous ecosystems informs every project, ensuring scientifically accurate dinosaurs, realistic prehistoric creatures, and credible palaeoenvironmental worldbuilding.

I provide palaeontology consultancy for books, TV, games, magazines, digital media, museum exhibitions, theme‑park attractions, animatronic experiences, and immersive environments. I support authors, publishers, TV teams, game studios, digital creators, and exhibition designers with clear, accessible guidance grounded in current research. From Horrible Science to large‑scale visitor experiences, I bring research-backed insight to deep-time storytelling, blending scientific accuracy with clear, accessible narratives.
