I design the places cameras look at.
Sets, studios and the light that makes them work on screen. Lately most of my time goes into live-streamed studios — rooms that are on air day and night and watched mostly on phones. Here I write about what happens behind the camera.

What I work on
Studio sets
Permanent sets for television and live-streamed studios: layouts, materials, presenter positions and the service access nobody sees.
Light for camera
Lighting plans built around the cameras and the smallest screen they will be watched on — stable for every shift, flattering for every presenter.
Film and drama
Interiors and builds for film and television drama, where the set has to tell part of the story before anyone says a word.
My own project
TrackSpins
After years of building studios, I wanted an honest record of what actually happens on them. TrackSpins is the tracker I run: it records every round of the tracked live tables as it is published, keeps the whole history and shows how often each result really appears — no predictions, no tips.
