CHROMEbaby is Bill Edwards. Graphic designer, illustrator, cartoonist, caricaturist and animator.

Bill was a runner up in the Adam & Joe Video Wars competition in August 2008 with his first proper animation. He was then a winner in the Shane Meadows Mini Film Competition with another animation, 2009: A Space O.A.P..

Shane, who judged the entries, was so impressed with Bill's animation style that he asked him if he would like to do the opening titles to his new film, Le Donk & Scor-Zay-Zee. Bill, who is a big fan of Shane's films, agreed!

Le Donk & Scor-Zay-Zee is available to download from
