Ellie Silkstone

I teach Game Design and Development on the Digital Media Arts programme at the University of Surrey. I'm also an animation and games technician, for all your technological troubleshooting needs. I'm the managing director of Xylophone Games, a micro video games studio based in London, and I also lend my skills as a freelance illustrator and designer, particularly in the heritage sector. My clients have included the National Trust, Scenario Films and Beefjack, and I have also taught at the National Film and Television School.

When I'm not fixing software disasters, I'm usually either working on my allotment in Lewisham or making something with my slow cooker.
