Hungry Ghost

The Practice

Some briefs know exactly what they are. Most don't.

We find what the project is reaching for before production starts — creating a framework that gives every department a shared compass for navigating the territory ahead. And we don't stop there. With a background spanning concept through to in-engine implementation, we can give your project a head start on the how as well as the why.

01 — Immersive & XR

Immersive
& XR

Worlds built to be inhabited, not observed.

Interstellar Arc

Immersive VR — Felix & Paul Studios / Area 15 Las Vegas

Framework: Amanogawa

A directed-walking experience with an unresolved aesthetic problem at its core. The solution was a complete cultural framework — Amanogawa, an art movement set 200 years into humanity's future among the stars. Reverence for materials, mastery of craft, the weight of collective human endeavour. Every visual decision followed from that single named world.

Runaways

Spatial AR Infinite Runner — Apple Vision Pro

Framework: Cosmic Happy Meal

An AR experience needing a visual register that felt simultaneously irreverent and coherent. The named framework — Cosmic Happy Meal — fused pop art, future-retro aesthetics, 70s and 80s nostalgia, hot rod culture, and Garbage Pail Kids. Once named, every asset decision had a reference point the whole team could hold.

Seven Ravens

AR Interactive Storybook — Felix & Paul Studios

Art direction for an augmented reality reimagining of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale — building a visual world that held the weight of the source material while feeling native to the AR medium.

Candy-Themed LBE

Location-Based Experience — Experiential Design

Creative direction for a high-art experiential environment built around candy as both theme and material logic — a surreal, high-saturation world designed to be physically inhabited.

Fluf Burrows

Games Vertical Slice — Full Pipeline Art Direction

Full creative and art direction across a games vertical slice — establishing the visual language, world logic, and asset pipeline from concept through to production-ready output.

02 — Visual Development

Visual
Development

Building the visual argument before the camera rolls.

Pitch Art

Concept Artist / Visual Developer — Gilliam · Summit · Selected Pitch Work

Pitch art arrives before the script. Sometimes before the cast. Work spanning The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus, The Darkest Hour, unproduced sci-fi, and selected pitch projects — making the hardest part of an unmade film feel immediately real.

Visual Development

Concept Artist / Visual Development — Disney · Netflix · Amazon

Visual development across three productions spanning fifteen years — Alice Through the Looking Glass, Spectral, and Rings of Power. Every environment decision made in service of what needs to happen narratively in that space.

VFX Concept & Matte Painting

VFX Concept Artist / Matte Painter — Carnival Row · Rings of Power · Black Adam

VFX concept art is problem identification, not illustration — serving editorial, production, and vendors simultaneously. Anchor project: The Burgue for Carnival Row, built from three real cities into one fictional one.

Independent Concept Design

Independent Practice — Selected Pieces

A small selection of personal concept work — design and painting made for their own sake, outside any brief or production.

03 — Independent Practice

Independent Practice

What does a ghost eat?

Time, Myth, Memory.

Fine Art Practice

Sculpture — Concrete & Found Objects — Wellington, New Zealand

An ongoing material practice working in concrete and form — asking the same questions that drive the commercial work without a brief to answer to. Objects at the threshold between the ritual and the everyday; vessels built to carry the weight of things that persist after the person is gone.
