PR & Marketing

I have around 10 years’ experience in marketing most recently in the VFX industry. While at Outpost VFX, I collaborated on marketing operations across community management, press relations, copywriting and video editing.

 

Whether writing an in-depth article for the website or editing a video for an award entry, I'd help distil technical visual effects processes into engaging content that championed company culture.

During my time at Outpost, I helped support the launch of shows like Star Trek: Picard and House of the Dragon.

Games Writing and Narrative Design

Since January 2024, I've been studying a Master’s Degree in Indie Game Development at Falmouth University where I've explored my passion for Games Writing and Narrative Design.

 

While studying, I've worked on projects independently and in a team, using both Unity and Unreal Engine. During the course I've created projects using Yarn Spinner, Ink and Twine, and learned more about narrative design documentation including dialogue systems, location bios, character bios, cinematics and more.

I’ve also had the opportunity to learn more about the business side of the industry, producing business plans, pitch decks, trailers and segmentation surveys.
