Hi, I’m Izzy :)

I’m an Artist (and sometimes Director & Writer) specialising in bringing worlds to life and telling compelling stories.

Currently, I’m a Production Designer at Aardman.

I’m the person you’ll find getting lost in the research, overexcited about the ideas and drawing hundreds of thumbnails to develop a world until it makes the story sing. I’ve been doing this for over a decade now, so whilst that’s beginning to make me feel a little old, it also means I have a pretty good idea of what I’m doing!

I work across multiple disciplines and industries, but they are all tied together by my love of storytelling. As an artist with directing and storytelling capabilities, I am often brought on to projects while the story is still malleable, allowing opportunities to pitch ideas that can help form a stronger alignment between the script and visuals.

I pride myself on being highly organised and finding ways to improve the pipeline flow. I almost went into a career centred around maths, so those problem-solving elements of the job (where I get to help out other departments and figure out how to streamline our processes/handovers/information sharing) are some of my greatest strengths. Every studio, every production, works slightly differently, and I love working out where I fit best and where I can help most.

Are you after an unstoppable, passionate, speedy, story-driven force of nature?

Then you’re in the right place.

Whilst my focus is on Production Design, Visual Development and Directing, I have also worked across Background Layout & Paint, Art Direction, Colour Keys, Character Design, and Key Art.

Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you think I can bring something to your project.

I’m represented as a Director with The Greenhouse and Troublemakers.

… if you can’t find me, I’m probably on the beach searching for sea glass or smooth pebbles.
