About Me.
Hello!
My Name is Joseph Bentley and I am a Graphic Designer for BBC News with over 6 years’ experience creating visual art for Broadcast, Video Games and Marketing Campaigns.
I am deeply fortunate to specialise in creating graphics that strengthen storytelling and help projects connect with wider audiences.
My work has been seen by millions worldwide; I’ve played a key role in award-winning and nominated projects and served as a key artist on a video game which is available to download for free on Steam and the Epic Store.
I love fusing together my technical skills from game development with contemporary design principles to create compelling graphics that have impact. I enjoy the challenge of creatively solving the problems of every brief in a beautiful and engaging manner and helping meaningful projects perform successfully.
Beyond my design career. I have experience running over 20 events, growing an authentic music community and supporting undiscovered talent from the grassroots to perform at live music venues through No Persona, a club night I co-launched.
From design to events, I’m all about creating and sharing experiences that truly resonate with audiences.
