Finding inspiration in everything from the mysterious world of David Lynch to the chills of John Carpenter, English graphic designer, photographer, and filmmaker Caspar Newbolt has created a unique aesthetic that blends the world of science fiction with the dark emotions of everyday life. Since co-founding Version Industries in 2003 when he was just 23, Caspar has acted as lead designer for the company, producing websites, printwork, and video pieces for clients such as Daft Punk and Louis CK, to name a few. As an important part of his work, Caspar spends most of his time art directing and designing for bands such as The Protomen, 65daysofstatic, Makeup and Vanity Set, Big Black Delta and SONOIO, as well as giving independent filmmakers the support they need online and in print. When not busy creating a new album cover or film piece, Caspar writes critically on art and film for various publications. We caught up with Caspar to dive deeper into his creative process, his love for David Lynch, and working with Louis CK.
