Role: Senior Designer and Retoucher | Project: STAGS | Paramount+

 
 
 
 

Nominated Best Key Visual, GEMA Awards 2024

TAGS follows groom-to-be Stu and his friends on his stag do in South America. What was meant to be a week of drink, drugs, and fun turns dark when instead of boarding a plane home, the group is thrown in to a notorious and depraved prison island run by two drug-dealing siblings and it becomes clear that the stags need to pick a side if they have any chance of survival. Friendships are tested and life-long loyalty is sacrificed as Stu and his friends begin to question, who will make it home?

As the lead graphic designer for STAGS, I helped guide the key art creative from inception to completion, overseeing every stage of the process. From conceptualisation to final retouching—a task I handled personally—I crafted a suite of compelling key art used extensively in the show's marketing and on the Paramount+ platform.

 
 
 
 

The concept for the key visual was based on the moment our stags arrive at El Puerco Negro.
Overwhelmed and underprepared, the realisation of just how f****d they are hits the group.
