This portfolio page is little snippets of what I’m working on currently.
‘Kick em’ where it hurts’
This is a project I did in uni for a Kodak advertisement competition for Adidas and the women’s FIFA World Cup.
My role in this was puppet maker and art department. The base for this advert was to represent misogyny within men towards women who play football, however we wanted the advert to be digestible by everyone from every age as we especially wanted to encourage young girls so we made the ‘heckler’ talking puppet footballs.

Personal small business
In the past year I have really fallen in love with prop design and I felt a great way to gain knowledge within this field is to just try it out in my spare time, I started collecting porcelain dolls and rubber baby dolls and would paint then dye their hair and their clothes and give them personas which I would then bring to halloween art fairs and would set up stalls with my partner a horror comic illustrator which would pair with each other really nicely.
They got really great feedback and the first 2 I made sold at the first fair I brought them to.
Despite their rather niche market there definitely is one and i intended tot grow this business and to create it as a side project as I joy making these dolls and selling them alongside any other artists that I have know met.

'Last Orders'
This is a short experimental I assisted Production design as well as was Chief executive producer.
This films main focus was sustainability through its set building so everything in the set the chairs tables and flats were re used. myself and the head production designer just changed and added to the set throughout the film.
This films total budget for production design was around £70 and I feel this was utilised to the best it could've been and helped us create what we wanted out of it.

'Justify'
This film was a short 3 minute experimental piece I was the Chief Executive producer for as well as head production designer.
Because of it nudity I cannot include all of the shots from the film however I feel these help to show the film still quite well.
It was one of my first experimental films I've ever worked on and the set was suppose to reflect a Grecian temple with 1970s psychedelic elements. similar to The Holy Mountain by Alexander Jodorowsky however because of small budget and limited time i thought the best way to execute this is with fabric which I feel came across really sucessfully. The film was created using entirely trans and non binary actors as the film is about transitioning and the emotions that come with this.

Haunted house
Here is where I discovered my love for minutes as well as stop motion animation set design. I did this self led project in my second year of university where we were tasked to make something we have never made before.
Originally I wanted to experiment with some carpentry skills however lived in a small student house so didn't have the space too do so, so i thought why not do miniature carpentry, this mix with my love of horror got me to this project.
despite looking on it know and only thinking about what I would improve about it, at the time it was an impressive feat considering it was my first time making anything like this. this was the start of my miniature building adventure.

'Freddie star ate my hampster'
This film was my first real experience being a production designer. It was a 8 minute narrative based on the comedian Freddie star and his infamous sun news article surrounding him eating a hamster.
It was focused in 3 main locations all filmed within Bristol the locations where a 1980s living room and kitchen, a 1990s talk show and an early 2000s Spanish expat bar.
I was the only production designer on this film and worked with a live hamster (no hamster were actually eaten...I promise) and I made a 'stunt double' for her which would be actually eaten. I did this through felting and polymer clay.
I also designed a sign in pro create, laser cut it and then wired it to light up for the talk show scene.
