Organised by the Production Designers Collective (PDC), IPDW is a biennial, worldwide initiative that shines a spotlight on the "world builders" behind the screen. The event features a diverse, global programme of in-person and virtual activities, including Panels, Masterclasses, Screenings, and Workshops, which explore key industry themes like Sustainable Design, Digital Tools, and Collaboration. IPDW offers a rare opportunity to engage directly with the creative minds responsible for developing the visual concept and entire aesthetic that defines cinematic and episodic storytelling.

Meet the Speaker
Jenny Morgan | Executive Producer, Art Department
With over 25 years of experience in the film industry, Jenny brings a rich and varied background to her role at Framestore. Her client-side credits include some of the most iconic productions of recent decades, such as The Lord of the Rings trilogy, King Kong, The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, Mulan, and The Power of the Dog. She has worked across multiple departments, including locations, transport, armour & weapons, set decoration, and the art department, gaining a deep understanding of the filmmaking process from the ground up.
Since returning to the UK from New Zealand in 2021, Jenny has brought her on-set Art Department expertise to Framestore, where she now manages the in-house Art Department. In this role, she has continued to build strong, collaborative relationships with production designers, producers, directors, and VFX supervisors—all while fostering a creative, motivated, and happy team environment.
When she’s not at work, you’re likely to find Jenny kitesurfing on the Solent—or, ideally, somewhere with warmer waters.
