Paris Hair is the nom de plume of me, Neil McFarland.
I am the co-founder and CEO of 'First Light Games' a young mobile games studio based in London.
Prior to First Light as Director of Games at 'Ustwo Games', I collected 2 Baftas, an Apple Design award and Apple Game of the Year, alongside almost every other significant industry accolade for the mobile game 'Monument Valley'. Our team then also created the first significant and profitable mobile VR title 'Lands End' . We then following this with one of the most successful premium mobile titles of all time, Monument Valley 2. Nice.
I began my working life drawing comics before moving into illustration and animation. Through grit and determination I have built my career by adapting to the ever changing landscape and opportunities of commercial art.
Professionally I have always strived to create the definitive, most suitable content for each newly emerging technology platform or hardware and have been fortunately placed to work at the forefront of most from the beginning.
Before all that thought I lived in this house in West Yorkshire:
South London, UK
