Concept > final Here's how my original concept sketches for Conflicting Reports turned into the final product. Most of my projects start out as a few scrappy sketches on paper - nothing beats it for getting an idea down quickly to see if it has any potential.

AI design is getting better and better. Its outputs have a put-together glossy polish that looks – at least to the untrained eye – professional. This isn’t an article about that. Instead, it’s an article about what AI design doesn’t offer.

Shadows are an amazing creative tool when used right. In this article, I’ll examine how shadows and shade can be used effectively in poster design and take a look at some striking examples.

Here's the final part of the set of true crime documentaries I worked on with Story Films for Amazon Prime. This one dealt with a case where the police realised there were actually two culprits - so I've aimed to capture that in the visuals.

Here's a recent project I worked on as part of a slate of true crime documentaries with Story Films for Amazon. All of these series dealt with sensitive subjects, and it was important to find a balance between a compelling, clickable image without descending into sensationalism and shock value.

I finally got a chance to watch Oppenheimer recently - and wow, what a film! Watching it in three sittings probably isn't the ideal cinematic experience Nolan had in mind, but that's parent life for you. Here's the tribute poster I put together during it's Oscars run - sharing is appreciated!

It’s been a while since I shared some work on here, so here’s the poster I created for Hitch 60, a documentary charting the real-life experiences of two women, who hitchhiked as teens to the Middle East during its golden age in the 1960s.

All of my Skeleton Crew posters connected! Seven posters. Seven weeks. This was one of the most demanding projects I’ve worked on so far due to the tight deadlines every week. Each poster took about three days to finish from concept to final.

Working with @mattferguson.bsky.social is pretty special. He designed these Lower Decks parody STV teaser posters and printed them in theatrical size as a gift! I think these are the only copies in the world, a signed edition of 5... 😍
