Production Designer
Anna’s background covers drama, comedy, commercials, and music promos. She’s worked with top directors like James de Frond, Andy de Emmony and Mackenzie Crook, and on shows for most major networks, including BBC1, 2, 3 and 4, Channel Four and Sky Atlantic. Reviews for her most recent work on ’The Curse’ describe the show as ‘gorgeously rendered’ and the series’ world as ‘lovingly constructed’. She’s based in London and is available for work worldwide.

“There aren’t enough superlatives to describe Anna Sheldrake artistry and capability. She is the perfect mix of inventive creativity and pragmatic problem solving required of a high-end Production Designer. Her results on screen are as exceptional as her budgetary, logistical and team management. After working with her once, you will - like me - seldom wish to work with a different Designer again.”
Dan Kay - UK Line Producer on Paolo Sorrentino’s 'The New Pope'
