Work.
SELECTED PROJECTS.
About.
WHO ARE YOU REALLY?
I provide services related to graphic design, art direction and marketing communications, including: graphic design and production; digital illustration; photo-illustration; motion graphics; animation; photography; dimensional design; video editing and production; web development; 3D modeling and rendering; writing and editing; social media; and event planning and logistics.
Projects I have worked on include book covers, logos and identity, publications, packaging, websites, presentations, advertising, catalogs, exhibit graphics, large format graphics, signage and more.
Skills.
I HAVE THEM.
Skills + project type = successful finished product.
01. GRAPHIC DESIGN
Graphic design fundamentals inform every visual project that I work on. Form, scale, hierarchy, color, balance, contrast and more all play a part in the creation of the final product.
02. COLLABORATION
Collaboration is an essential part of a successful project. I work to create a good relationship among all involved parties, from stakeholders to other creatives to production vendors.
03. LARGE FORMAT DESIGN
Large format design involves graphic design skills, and requires considering other aspects including viewing distance and time. Production requirements differ from typical print jobs, especially resolution specifications. Projects include exhibits, backdrops, billboards, and banners.
04. MARKETING and COMMUNICATIONS
I have experience in planning, marketing and promoting events as well as communicating organization initiatives using print, digital and social media. The Interferry conference is held in a different country every year which requires liaising with a new host, venue staff, on-site support and local vendors as well as coordinating with long-distance partners and suppliers.
05. ILLUSTRATION
While I’m not a traditional illustrator, a lot of my work does have an illustrative quality to it, especially book covers. I use a variety of tools including the usual Photoshop and Illustrator along with 3D modeling/rendering, photography and good old fashioned hand-sketching.
Clients.
