About me

My name is Daniel Saunders, I am Lead Creative, Designer and Director specialising in Broadcast design and Advertising. Over the past 8 years I have been fortunate enough to work for some high end clients and with some truly gifted individuals, including a 2.5 year stint in the USA after being brought over on a specialist visa. It was in the US that I really found my feet in broadcast work. I was hired as a promo creative / art director, and promptly thrown in the deep end to lead the creative on a pitch for Planet Earth, ( Discovery Channel ) - we had a great team and were fortunate enough to win all of the on -air branding. During my time there I also lead creative on other high end clients, such as HBO and National Geographic, designing and developing concepts for promos, title sequences and channel branding.

Since returning to the UK about four years ago, I have continued to develop my skill set with enthusiasm and in doing so have picked up various awards. My clients here include ITV, Discovery Channel, Disney, BBC, and BSkyB.

For the past 18 months I have been freelancing at advertising powerhouse DAD, who have now partnered with Sapient Nitro. My skills include idea generation and concept development for both broadcast design and advertising. Live action direction, including several commercial shoots, short films and music videos. Storyboarding to a very high standard, as well as having the ability to develop high end photoshop visuals when needed. In all, I thoroughly enjoy challenging briefs and working with fun people, wether it is advertising, broadcast media or film and would love to hear from you if you feel my skill set is a fit.

Many Thanks

Dan
