Susan Bradley is a title designer, graphic artist, and art+motion graphics director in feature film.

Bradley has a fifteen-year background making projects & people look their best and helping tell great stories. Her background ranges from traditional optical animation & type design to digital motion graphics & 2nd unit art direction. Her film clients include major studios and independent filmmakers on both coasts.

Her passion of film titles was recognized at the American Film Institute (AFI), where she taught "Theory and Practice of Film Title Design" to its Digital Media fellows for three years. At AFI Susan created and moderated the Harold Lloyd Masters Seminar, "From "The Seven Year Itch" to 'Seven': 50 Years of Film Titling and Design."

Bradley was Manager of Walt Disney Studios' Title Graphics Department for six years, bringing computers to the Department in 1994. As Disney's lead title designer, she produced a vast array of title sequences and graphic design on films such as Toy Story 2, The Big Kahuna, A Bug's Life, Runaway Bride, Romy & Michele's High School Reunion, Toy Story, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, The Lion King, Quiz Show, and numerous others*.

Since leaving Disney Studios, Bradley has gone on to design titles and graphics for many live action films, including Walter Salles' The Motorcycle Diaries and Dark Water, Pierce Brosnan's The Matador, CBS' first season of Numb3rs & Davis Guggenheim's An Inconvenient Truth. She reunited with Pixar in 2005 to work on Ratatouille and thinks she may have found home.

With her film communities in Los Angeles & San Francisco, Bradley is also developing a documentary on a history of title design through the work of her former colleague and hero, Harold Adler, who was Saul Bass' lettering and production artist for most of Bass' film career. Harold retired the same year he left us, at age 89. He is truly missed and revered beyond expectation.

Susan is also a proud member of VES, the Visual Effects Society.
