Emily in a few words
Hello I’m Emily, I’m an Illustrator and Designer based in London. Following my first class BA (Hons) degree in illustration, I have worked in award winning design teams such as TI-Media’s The Foundry (Now Future Media), Lloyds Banking Groups Storytelling Team and now as Lead Corporate Designer at Immediate Media.
With a portfolio ranging from unique and distinctive illustration to skilful design, my work is both consistent and recognisable yet extremely versatile. I am well versed in storytelling: utilising a combination of both powerful narrative and imaginative character design.
Recent notable works include: the complete branding and content creation for the Immediate Media annual festival 'IMFestival' 2022, The Immediate Media 'Women In Tech' branding and content creation for the Women of Silicone Roundabout 2022, an illustrated cookbook titled 'The Sharing Table' for Hammersmith and Fulham residents, regular video editing and motion graphics briefs, and an ever growing collection of character illustrations and architectural commissions.
I have expertise in Adobe suite programmes After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Premier Pro and Adobe Draw. Additionally I am skilled in the entire M Office suite and Procreate.
