Brighton's tight-knit indie film and advertising community produces a disproportionate share of music videos, branded content and Channel 4 commissions. The city's distinctive seafront, lanes and Regency architecture demand storyboards that capture that specific Brighton energy.
What I deliver for Brighton clients
Black & white sketches
Fast, loose pencil-and-ink frames. Ideal for early concept exploration when you need to test ideas with the team before committing budget.
Tonal storyboards
Mid-fidelity frames with shading and atmosphere — the sweet spot for client approval and shot-list planning on most Brighton commercials.
Full-colour renders
High-fidelity colour storyboards for end-of-pitch decks, agency new-business or executive sign-off on premium projects.
Animatics
Timed animatic sequences with motion and pacing — essential for testing edits and refining beats before the shoot.
Brighton areas served
I serve clients across Brighton and the wider East Sussex, South East England region. Common pickup areas include:
- The Lanes
- North Laine

Because the work is delivered digitally with a live document workflow, location matters less than turnaround. Most clients in Brighton have first frames within 24-48 hours of brief sign-off.

How to brief me
The cleanest brief includes a script or treatment, any reference imagery (mood boards, location photos, lookbook), the desired number of frames or shot list, the deadline and a working budget. From there, I'll come back with a fixed price and the first frames within 1-2 working days.
Working with Brighton agencies and producers
I integrate into your existing tools — Frame.io, Slack, Google Drive, Adobe — and use a live document workflow so directors, agency leads and producers in Brighton can watch frames develop in real time and add comments without waiting for an "ETA on V2" email.
Frequently asked questions
Do you travel to Brighton for shoots?
For most projects, no — storyboards are completed and delivered digitally before the shoot. For pre-production workshops with directors and agency creatives I do travel where the budget allows.
How quickly can you start a Brighton project?
Same-day starts are routine. Tell me the deadline and I'll tell you what's realistic.
What's the typical turnaround?
A 30-second TV ad (15-30 frames) usually takes 2-4 working days. Rush turnarounds available.
Do you work with Brighton animation studios?
Yes — animation pre-production is one of my specialisms. I deliver layered files compatible with all standard animation pipelines.
