Arwel Wyn Jones is a Production Designer and Art Director on
many productions produced by BBC Wales. Production Design is one of
the most important roles on a film or television production, with
the head designer working closely with the director and producers
to create a visual identity for the entire piece that is passed
down through the sets, make up and costumes.
Arwel has worked in various capacities on Doctor Who and its
spin off series since 2006. On Doctor Who, he worked in the Art
Department, graduating to stand by Art Director for the first two
series. For The Sarah Jane Adventures, he fulfilled the role of
Production Designer, overseeing the look of the first two series.
He also worked on the Torchwood: Children of Earth mini-series,
again in the role of standby Art Director. He was installed as
Production Designer on the Pilot for Sherlock in 2009, and returned
to the role when the concept was approved to Series.
In 2012, Arwel was Production Designer on Series Two of
the revamped series 'Upstairs Downstairs', comedy drama mini-series
'Sugartown'; and 'Wizards vs Aliens', a new CBBC Series from
Russell T Davies, former Executive Producer of Doctor Who.
