About
I’m John Cooper, a professional creative with a BA (Hons.) in Art Design and Communication. I specialise in motion graphics, illustration, live scribing, website design and branding, and have collaborated with clients including the University of Manchester, Newcastle University, Bradford University and the NHS. My showreel and recent work can be viewed at Rocket Steps Studio. I blend visual storytelling with solid design fundamentals to deliver engaging, clear communications.
Beyond design, I’m a professional stand-up comedian and sketch writer; I’ve written comedy sketches for the BBC and performed in two Edinburgh solo shows. I’m a member of the Totally Improvised Company and use humour to educate and entertain across my work. In 2022 I spoke at TEDx Warrington about the benefits of improvisation and using humour.
