I am going to ‘wake you up before you go-go’, as we dive into the entertainment world with award-winning British graphic designer, producer and screenwriter, Simon Halfon. Simon explains how a chance encounter with The Clash’s right hand man, Kosmo Vinyl, led to working in the mailroom at Stiff Records. He developed his career by designing album covers - working closely with George Michael, Oasis and Paul Weller… and then moved onto becoming a successful screenwriter and movie producer.
