Mark Cunniffe is widely recognised as one of the UK's most innovative lighting and production designers working in the live event, touring and television business.

Cunniffe has gained great reputation for his designs and is reknown for his detailed attention to the artistic requirements of performance presentation. He is extremely enthusiastic and professional in all aspects of his work and enjoys the challenges of creating varied individual designs for each of the production that he is involved in.

Cunniffe has a wealth of experience within the music and entertainment business having worked with various artists including Bryan Adams, AC/DC, Charlotte Church, Elton John, Eric Clapton, Rod Stewart, Jon Bon Jovi, Loreena McKennit, REM and Madonna. Most recently Mark worked with David Bowie and Il Divo on their sell-out World Tours and also returned to his theatrical roots by relighting Derek Dean's acclaimed production of Swan Lake at the Royal Albert Hall.

Cunniffe's varied experience in the field of lighting design, together with his earlier theatrical background, has allowed him to specialise in the artistic requirements of production presentation and develop new and unconventional methods of lighting and production design. He is particularly interested in the use of theatrical and scenic projection as a means of creating new and more varied performance environments that work for both live and television productions.
