The Limehouse Golem (2016)
Feature film set in 1880 Victorian London. My role as a graphic designer focused on the creation of dressing graphics for the various period locations. These ranged from musical theatre playbills to period signage and advertising.

Elizabeth ‘Lizzie’ Cree, played by Olivia Cooke, is the star of The Limehouse Golem. I designed her hero poster for the production of ‘Skipped by the Light of the Moon’. Inspired by a wide variety of musical playbills from the 1880 era, Olivia was dressed in a top hat and tails costume similar to the performer Vesta Tilley.
Below is a breakdown of the inspiration, photoshoot and final design.
