Statement
I enjoy designing most when I can tell a story. I love to creating art with narrative and giving it a human feel. My passion is creating graphic design for film and the approach I take is methodical and experimental, resulting in playful and thoughtful outcomes that stem from my cultural and artistic experiences. I’m a self-driven designer, who flourishes both during independent work and in collaborative environments. I have a love of fine art and illustration, and continue to explore stop motion animation and photography, all of which I incorporate into the graphics I produce. I have a strong work ethic and create designs with highly developed artistic direction. One word that has appeared in every school report and university feedback that I’ve ever received is “conscientious”. I take my work seriously, and I care about the outcome.

A collection of graphic props in the form of sentimental ephemera based around the character of Eliza Doolittle from the play Pygmalion / film My Fair Lady. Set in 1917, the chocolate box and its contents are things Eliza might have kept from the last few years of her life. A short film depicting a collection of graphic props owned by “Amelia” who lives with her new husband “Tristan” in their small London flat in 1954. After a long, internal struggle she chooses to leave her unsupportive husband to pursue her dream job working in fashion in Paris. This book contains 54 ephemeral items and the personal stories behind each one. This is a unique look into the emotional attachment people have to seemingly insignificant items that might mean little to most people but are loved and treasured by the owner. Download pdf & view as two pages. During the 1800’s, playbills were the main form of advertising public entertainment. This letterpress playbill is designed to mimic the 1840s style, using a modern satirical comedy about the bard himself, William Shakespeare as inspiration for the content. This is a white card model of a fictional 1950s London flat. This film set maquette was a precursor to the ‘Amelia’ project, to give an idea of the space and layout where my graphic props might appear on screen, before I began designing them. This video aims to express how goodbyes can be varied and emotional.
