Meet Gina
Hi! I’m Gina Alessi, a graphic designer and educator for film and television and member of IATSE Local 800.
As a designer for film and television productions, I am responsible for creating anything and everything that could possibly require a graphic designer's skill set. This rather massive list includes brand identities for fictional on-screen brands, graphic props, environmental graphics (such as signage, special structures, murals, etchings, decals, and more), and even surface pattern designs like textiles and wallpapers.
Through my experience designing environmental graphics and spaces for film and television, I have also come to specialize in art direction, interior design, fabrication, and installation for spaces in the real world.

I am a human-centered creative. This means:
Design Philosophy
My design works are created by me, not artificial intelligence. My emails are written by me, not Chat.
I use design elements made by human hands, human photographers, and human illustrators; I use computer tools that enable human artists, not ones that replace them.
I advocate for copyright protections and fair contracts for creatives. And I believe human rights and human dignity are not negotiable.
Are you nodding along? We may be a good fit!
