Creating graphic details — big and small — to build worlds behind the camera. Sharp eye for layout and typography, from a decade in journalism and magazine publishing. Stuck in the late 20th century. Versed in period and contemporary. Lover of design high and low. Somewhere making books.

A range of screen graphics made for a contemporary spy thriller — across MI5 and the CIA. I designed a number of computer, phone and tablet screens.

Often, the action hinged on information on-screen. I carefully designed user interfaces, storyboarded scripted action, and worked with Revolver to animate the designs.



The script called for a programme to read and log Adam’s biometrics — giving him sole secure access to his devices. I designed the interface, planned the sequence of steps, and worked with Revolver, to animate.
