VISION ARTISTS ENLIST HUGO HARRIS.
3 September 2023

Whip-smart production designer Hugo Harris has joined Vision Artists for representation. Harris graduated from Edinburgh College of Art with a degree in fine art and a zest for sculpture. Ask him about material experimentation and watch his eyes light up.

Vision's eyes lit up when they learned he was also a set/production designer. From concept to completion, he aims to please clients while developing his own distinctive style, with casting, metal work, and other techniques at his disposal. To see how Harris grasps the emotional heart of a script, check out this Prostate Cancer UK spot.
