We’re delighted to be working with the writer and actor Daniel Tatarsky. Daniel, who brings fantastic experience and a quirky sense of humour, will work with the Alternative View Studios animation team on the explainer animation scripts.

Daniel Tatarsky started his working life as a computer programmer with the Prudential way before programming was cool. From there, he became a market analyst with CCN (now Experian) before turning to stand-up comedy, acting and writing. He has had several books published on a variety of subjects, from Subbuteo to philosophy. They include:

• Cool Philosophy: Filled with Facts for Kids of All Ages
• Everything You Need to Know About Everything You Need to Know About: Your World, And Everything In it, In A Nutshell
• The Splendid Book of the Bicycle: From Boneshakers to Bradley Wiggins
• Cool Science Tricks: 50 Fantastic Feats for Kids of All Ages

His latest, published in October 2017, is an infographics book about music entitled Stats, Records and Rock’n’Roll. He also writes screenplays and novels. On-screen, he has appeared in films directed by award winners such as James Marsh, Armando Iannucci and Sarah Gavron. He’s also been in The Bill and Eastenders, but which actors haven’t?

Get in touch if you’d like to create a quirky explainer animation scripted by Daniel.
