Welcome to the online-portfolio of Peter Popken,
concept- and storyboard artist for the film industry.

As a conceptual designer I provide visual ideas and
aesthetics of a film for directors and production designers.
This includes environment/set designs as well as character,
costume, creature, prop illustration and picture vehicles.

Recently Peter Popken has been working as conceptual
designer on films such as HUGO, BOURNE SUPREMACY,
V FOR VENDETTA or Jerry Bruckheimer's PRINCE OF PERSIA.
His work spans more than 20 films and is published in
several web-galleries and art books. A full filmography
is listed in the resume section here.
