After working on the fantastical visual landscapes of Tim Burton for Corpse Bride, Wes Anderson for Fantastic Mr Fox, and on 12 time Emmy nominated TV series Watchmen for HBO, Poppy turned her hand to screenwriting, and in 2021, won the Zoetrope Screenplay competition as judged by Francis Ford Coppola for her screenplay Carême. This background in art direction informs a visually arresting directorial style. Her debut film Celestial starring Natasha O'Keeffe and Francesca Corney will be released later in the year.
