Welcome to my portfolio.
Here are examples of my work from concept sketches and storyboards to large scale backcloth painting, a revolutionary guillotine and Audrey II's skin texture. I enjoy the diversity of the different disciplines of design, represented here by my graphic design, photographs, virtual 3D set models, promotional artwork and the
portfolio itself.
I have designed and painted Stage sets for 16 years. Most recently backcloths for Beauty and the Beast in Todmorden and a set for Return to the Forbidden planet that is to feature in The Big Bang, uk youth engineering fair in the Excel centre, London. I studied Fine Art painting at Liverpool Polytechnic and I am based in West Yorkshire. UK. Do not hesitate to contact me, to discuss my work or any
future project you may have in mind.

Storyboards & Taxis
Guillotine - designed and painted by J.Ingham.Unfortunately the budget did not stretchto a trick table and false head to complete the illusionabove - workshop photo.above left - working drawings
The Borrowers - Giant Boot -I was pleased with this as it hadno budget & a tight deadline. It wasimprovised with chicken wire canvas and 3’x1’ over a couple of days. It turned out much better than I expected. Big enough for an adult to enter at a crouch

Wedding Invitation 2005
We wanted something memorable, personaland a little bit homemade. Each guest got aCD with some of our favourite music. I compiled & burnt all the CDs, designed and printed out the labels on a Ricoh colourcopier. Catherine and I assembled 150 and aclose friend and caligrapher added the guestnames.
Reggae Mix CD
In 2004 I spent a couple of months compilingmixing a CD compilation to promote theChapter 4 sound system. After adding soundeffects and movie and tv dialogue. I movedon to the packaging. It is designed to imitatea 7” single. The white marks on the “vinyl” ofthe CD are cue marks that a DJ uses to findthe relevant part of the track.
