What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute visual development, animation, illustration, costume design, and multidisciplinary creative skills to collaborative projects where I can solve technical challenges and deliver engaging work.

I've delivered illustration, costume design, animation, graphic design, and scientific illustration through independent commissions, MsPsychologyPerfect, and All Muddy Productions. My short film Support Available has been selected by Panorama, Starling, Fringe!, and Manchester Lift-Off film festivals.

I also run Jess Wilcock Art at markets across London, and have supported EXO.mmt with studio assistance and social media rebranding. I bring hands-on visual storytelling, costume work, 2D animation, and practical project coordination to creative work.
