Syd
Richardson

I’m Syd, a freelance production designer and art director based in Brooklyn. I’ve worked in film and art departments since 2015, creating sets, props, and visual environments for screen productions and installations.

I develop lookbooks and renderings, source materials and props, create print graphics, and work with crews and fabricators to bring the design onto set. My credits include production design on Wrong Place, Nix, and Chasing Nightmares, and art direction on Chloe x Halle’s “Do It.”

I studied Film Production at the New York Film Academy in New York City. Alongside production work, I make visual art as Syd Rio and coordinate contract events and creative projects.
