ABOUT

Hi, I'm Steve, an ex-detective turned Graphic Designer and Police Advisor for Film & TV.

After 13 years in the police, I re-trained as a Graphic Designer in 2019 at Shillington College in Brisbane, Australia.

Since then, I’ve worked as a Graphic Designer and Police Advisor in the UK film & TV industry, specialising in creating authentic graphics and advising on police props, procedures and wardrobe for productions including the BBC film ‘Responsible Child’ (2019), and the Sky series ‘The Midwich Cuckoos’ (2021).

After switching careers, I realised just how many creative and talented people there are in the film & TV industry, so I started the OPENING CREDITS® podcast, which I co-host with fellow Graphic Designer Laura Whitehouse, as a way to meet the crew behind the scenes and help other people find out more about the weird and wonderful world of filmmaking.

Outside of the film industry, I design branding for independent, socially-conscious businesses, and create key art for films, events, theatre and gigs.
