Clive Keep has been living and working in Hong Kong since 1988.
Having graduated from London University (UCL) in 1981 (BSc in Architecture), he has followed a project-based career path mostly working on a self-employed basis in the field of Art and Design. He got the bug for computers in 1996 when a friend gave him an ancient IBM PS2.

"I've always had the knack for technology and I got into building my own computers, messing around with the internet and learning about how computers work and what they can do. At the time I was running a community art gallery and I realised that here was a way to supplement my meagre income.

"I started to develop my computer skills in web-design and offer my services to other artists and freelancers. I was pleased to discover that computer technology had progressed to a level where it could at last offer useful tools in the area of 3D design at a reasonable price."

Since then Clive has and extended his skills into web design, 3D object modeling and animation, and dabbled in script-writing and programming. In 2001 he began shooting and editing digital video in partnership with Troy McLachlan.
