With extensive experience in Creative Direction, Cinematography, Print, and Production, I currently hold the position of Senior Lecturer for BA (Hons) Creative Direction & Curation for Fashion at Nottingham Trent University, Associate Lecturer of Design for Art Direction at the University of the Arts London and freelance Art Director.
As an Art Director, my expertise lies in executing creative and branding projects across various mediums, including film, photography, social media, and immersive practices. Throughout my journey, I have honed my skills in design, imagination, sensitivity, and diplomacy, enabling me to effectively conceptualise ideas, and manage teams and processes.
For me, creativity is the art of storytelling, and storytelling is at the core of my professional endeavours.

- Breakout RhapsodyBreakout Rhapsody was created to not only reflect on Mélodie’s own experiences as a Performer but mainly to disrupt the status quo of the classical music realm and introduce it to a new audience.

- Mutt MagazineChampioning an aesthetic inspired by the exuberant energy of dogs, Mutt Magazine was created in response to our compassion for the cause. Embedding my love of editorial design, vibrant colour and photography, Mutt Magazine is a new niche publication, celebrating rescue dogs by peeking through the keyholes of families and their happy hounds, offering an undocumented glimpse into their second chance at a forever home.
