I am a multimedia designer working across visual identity, web design and motion graphics. My practice focuses on how visual language shapes attention, emotion and experience. I explore digital interfaces and storytelling as a way to connect people, ideas and environments through thoughtful and atmospheric design.

Lost in the Grey is an opening title sequence exploring tension and uncertainty during the Great Smog in London, 1952. Created using AI-generated imagery and compositing in After Effects, the work uses fog, silhouettes and muted lighting to suggest disappearance and hidden danger. The focus is on atmosphere and anticipation rather than storytelling, allowing the viewer to sense the mystery before understanding it.
This work mixes real city footage with animated creatures to show how a familiar place can suddenly feel strange. At first, everything looks normal, but small unusual details start to appear, as if the city is alive and watching. The piece is about the feeling of being observed, the fear of the unknown, and how our imagination can change the way we see everyday places.
