I'm Ash, Senior Designer for BBC iPlayer’s Image Design Studio, responsible for creative design leadership and studio direction, managing a great team of designers and picture editors. In collaboration with BBC Creative, we are responsible for the delivery of programme imagery and artwork on iPlayer and third party platforms.
I’m a creative designer experienced on high profile projects across each stage of the design process, from enjoying meeting with clients and concept creation through to managing production and delivery. I've worked with some incredible independent studios in London, a large marketing and advertising agency and in-house for global organisations at senior level.
At the heart of my work is a love of storytelling – intelligent imaginative ideas, the relationship between word and image, and audience engagement. I love using bold colours and shapes, discovering incisive simplicity, consistently applied to visualise and support navigation of complex ideas and architecture.
HELLO THERE…
“Over the last 6 months Ash has produced some truly fantastic work for us, supporting us in the redesign of our marketing assets (incl. client manuals, research papers and more). Ash's value-add goes beyond the delivery of projects (with superb turnaround times) to being pivotal in getting our brand image off the ground. Ash is very reliable and easy to work with - in particular, he is great at translating a high-level need into a high quality deliverable that more than matches expectations. I definitely recommend Ash!” –
