MERLYN’S STORY

Credit: Shannon Elise

Creative Director and designer Merlyn Bilas established inShort as an independent design studio where you’ll get our full attention.

We scale to suit the project no matter the size of the story or the client by working with good people.

Before founding inShort, Merlyn worked in marketing, communications and video production in Australia and the US. In her artistic practice as a writer and filmmaker, Merlyn creates stories that connect us to each other.

Design is yet another way for Merlyn to tell your story.

What People Are Saying

Merlyn created the graphics for my podcast and struck that perfect balance between meeting my vision for the project and bringing her fresh eye for colour, shape and an innovative take on design for a result that resonates with meaning. I highly recommend her to create a design that will make you stand out.

Merlyn is ardently committed to meticulous design and narrative that evokes an emotional response from the target audience.
