Keith grew up around the west coast of Scotland, and as a child loved
drawing from a very young age. Through high school he continued to experiment
with different materials and techniques. Eventually trying his hand at most of
the traditional methods available. Ranging from watercolour painting,
to charcoal drawing, to pencil sketching and graphic design.
In addition to his love of drawing, he also developed a keen interest
in cinema. So decided to combine both passions. Progressing to art college and a degree
at The Surrey Institute of Art & Design, where he specialised in traditional animation.
Following art school, he was lucky enough to immediately secure a job in London;
with a newly established post-production company. There he found himself in the deep
end of the fast paced world of video editing. Where he spent every waking minute
learning everything about the meticulous craft of piecing together sound and images.
Assisting the editors in assembling a broad range of television programmes and videos.
Emerging several years later, much wiser in his experience of the 'glamorous' world of
television. He realised that he had not been using his creativity to it's best potential.
So he returned to illustration and went freelance as a Storyboard Artist. With his invaluable
knowledge of editing proving fundamental to the storyboarding process.
Keith now works across a broad range of different types of media. Creating a diverse range of
artwork for feature films, television and commercials. This has involved working alongside
many talented Directors, Producers, Cinematographers, Production Designers, Art
Directors, 2nd Unit Directors, Stunt Coordinators and VFX Supervisors. On a variety of productions
both large scale and small, both across the UK and internationally.
Clients include:
Netflix, Amazon Studios, Ridley Scott Associates, Marvel Studios, BBC,
Apple TV+, FX Productions, Channel 4, Left Bank Pictures, Millenium Films,
Black Label, Stink, Academy Films, Google, ITV, DNA Films
