Hi! I'm Steph, an emerging production designer, buyer and art assist.
​
I came to the art department by way of writing and comedy so I'm especially excited about the ways design can tell a story, say the unspoken and create opportunities for surprise or delight onscreen.
​
I've designed independent projects including the Melbourne Webfest award-nominated webseries Undergarment Odysseys, Vidya Rajan’s immersive theatrical gala The Lizard is Present, the music video for Vigilantonie’s Cooked, branded content for Retail Express and Crafted Cleverly as well as VCA films Mute (winner of VCA Best Production Design 2022), In Too Deep and I Love the Cowboy.
​
I've had experience in larger art departments including as props buyer on Sleeping Dogs, junior buyer/dresser on Netflix’s Clickbait, internships on Force of Nature and Love Me Season 2, and buyer/art assist on commercials for clients including Bonds, ANZ and Koala Mattress.
I completed my Master of Production Design at VCA where I was granted the Jim Marks Scholarship to attend the Production Designers Gathering in Greece. In 2020 I was mentored by Colin Gibson through Women in Film and Television’s MentorHer program.
In my spare time you can find me making funny little things out of polymer clay, reading niche Wikipedia entries or cutting up bits of paper on my loungeroom floor.
