STRAY KAT STUDIO

THE CREATIVE PRACTICE OF KATHERINE DONOVAN

Producer, Designer, & Storyteller

Hello! I'm Katherine Donovan

I’m a multidisciplinary creative working across film, design, and production. My background in art direction and digital storytelling bridges physical and digital worlds — from building immersive sets to producing branded content, websites, and visual systems that connect people to ideas.

Stray Kat Studio isn’t a company; it’s my creative practice. Through it, I collaborate with artists, studios, and brands to create visuals that feel intentional, textured, and alive.

Work With Me

Collaborations, creative direction, and design built to move ideas forward.

Every project is built around your goals — whether that means developing a new brand identity, producing video content, or designing a digital platform from the ground up.
