Introduce Yourself : Hello Stage 32 community! by Gideon Kofi Young Yeko

Gideon Kofi Young Yeko

Hello Stage 32 community!

I’m Gideon Yeko, a Ghanaian production designer with over a decade of experience crafting sets for high-profile events (like presidential inaugurations), national TV studios (GHOne, TV3), and film. I specialize in 3D visualization (SketchUp/V-Ray) and love merging modernist aesthetics with functional, narrative-driven design.

Currently sharpening my skills in film school while taking on freelance projects, I’m excited to connect with fellow creatives—especially those working in African cinema, virtual production, or set design innovation. Let’s collaborate or geek out about design!

Drop me a message—happy to be here.

It looks like a real Detective Office, Gideon Kofi Young Yeko. It's really detailed! You mentioned you're taking on freelance projects. I suggest checking the Job Board (www.stage32.com/find-jobs). It's updated regularly.

Hi Gideon Kofi Young Yeko! I’m Ashley, Head of Community here at Stage 32. I'm so glad you’ve joined us! Your experience is incredibly impressive, and I love the way you blend modernist aesthetics with narrative-driven design. That’s such a powerful combination, especially in spaces where visual storytelling is everything.

Your work in high-profile events and national TV already shows such a strong foundation, and it’s exciting that you’re continuing to grow your skills through film school and freelance projects. I think you’d really enjoy the conversations happening in the Filmmaking Lounge, particularly around production design and virtual production: https://www.stage32.com/lounge/directing

Can’t wait to see the incredible work you continue to create!
