Role: Art Director (Jan 2022 - June 2022)

Client: HBO & BMG

It was a privilege to Art Direct this 3 time Emmy-nominated short film at Blink Industries with directors Stephen McNally and Elliott Dear. We used a mixed media technique combining 2D hand drawn style animation (inspired by Bono’s original drawings and Gavin Friday’s music and narration) with miniature models. This was a new process for me having not worked with real miniatures before, so I was very lucky to get to work with the brilliant Emma Rose Dade and her team who did a phenomenal job bringing the 2D concepts to life.

Peter is a young boy navigating his grief so when designing the world of the film we had to delicately consider not only what his world would now look like, but how to represent the nuance of his sorrow through set design, composition and lighting.
