Fluent in Photoshop and InDesign Branding When working in Film Distribution, every film is it's own 'brand' requiring the careful combination of typography, colour, shape, placement and imagery to convey what the film is about at a glance. This same recipe can be applied when creating any brand. Branding combines a skillset in visual language, tied in with psychology and knowing how to reach your target audiences. Graphics Years of experience as both designer and art director means quick work for graphics that deliver information effectively and look good - whether you need memes for on-line or printed materials. Print Broker Print brokering means that I work directly with the printer to deliver files and specifics for each print job. Print jobs are handed over to you when it comes to taking delivery and making payment. Marketing Campaigns With experience in writing, managing and working on campaigns large and small, big budgets and no budgets, on a team and flying solo, I see marketing campaigns as the backbone of any project. They offer direction, room for creativity, and help keep the project on track for purpose. Communication Communication is key in every aspect, especially working between the 'languages' of ideas to visuals, visuals to an audience, client to a designer, designer to a printer. There are simple techniques like reflective listening and having a written brief, and being able to translate between all the languages on a job that mean the job goes smoothly for everyone involved. Problem Solving With a problem-solving mindset it is possible to turn situations around quickly, and (nearly) always find a way to make things happen. This is a skill that has served me well on many jobs, running teams and projects to get the job done most efficiently. |
