Bea Santos


Bea Santos is an actor and filmmaker who needed a logo and website to reflect her unique personality while showcasing her directing work's distinct aesthetic.

Agencies needed to know that Bea is available for acting roles and eager to collaborate as a filmmaker.

To achieve this, I built a custom single-page site that tells the story of Bea's journey, beginning with her acting career and transitioning into filmmaking. The site visually narrates this journey as you scroll.

The site needed to be flexible, as Bea is continuously working on new film projects. I designed the filmmaking section so she can easily update it with her latest projects.

For the logo design, I drew inspiration from the 70s, her favorite decade for inspirational films. In a nod to that, the site has a fun, retro feel. Orange is the client’s favorite colour which is used as an accent throughout the site. The serif font and her logo maintain a professional and sophisticated look to appeal to those seeking to hire and collaborate.

Scope: Visual Identity, Web Design and Build (Squarespace)

Year: 2022

The client mentioned that people have a hard time pronouncing her name. The solution was to have a secondary logo appear when to user begins to scroll.

“I could not recommend Cecily more! Before I started working with her, I was having doubts about effectively telling my story in a simple yet impactful way. Cecily listened carefully to what my goals were, asked great questions that encouraged me to articulate exactly what I wanted, and made thoughtful suggestions. I really felt listened to and liked that the process was a creative collaboration. The end result was a site with a visual style that was unique to me. The site tells my story in an innovative and one-of-a-kind way. I cringe to think of the alternate reality in which I didn't work with Cecily!”
