Isabel's work
About Isabel
Dear Sir/Madam,
I am writing in the hope that you will consider my application as a Graphic Designer. From your advert on creativepool.co.uk I can see that your offer suits my background, talents and career goals.
After reviewing your job description, its products and services, I would consider it a privilege to work with you and your team.
As you can see on my resume, I have had the wonderful opportunity of working as a Graphic Designer for Housebites (London) making two websites, designing for social networks such as Twitter, facebook and newsletters, as well as printing design for banners, roll ups and tube publicity.
For the past four years as a freelance graphic designer in Spain for numerous companies, including: Loewe; Hermes; Carolina Herrera and Universal Music.
The work was quite varied and unique and required me to undertake graphic, editorial and web design, as well as photography and video editing. I liaised directly with the clients providing ideas and suggestions to help promote their products. Their satisfaction was always my top priority and I fulfilled the brief, offering lots of suggestions and ideas that they possibly hadn't considered before.
I also put together a series of Pilates books for AEFEP company completing the illustrations, photography, book layout and overall design. Each book is used to teach students and is available to purchase online.
Currently I assist to a User Experience Design (UX) Course at General Assembly which allows me to explain all aspects of a person's experience with the system including the interface, graphics, industrial design, physical interaction and the manual.
My greatest strengths with industry-standard design software includes Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, and Freehand, as well as some video editing programs such as Premiere Pro and After Effects. I have a working knowledge of preflighting files, prepress and the offset printing process. I have recently taken animation courses and am also now able to rig, model and animate using maya and 3D Max.
I take great pride in the design work I create, always striving to deliver an effective, focused, and on-target product that fits my clients needs and goals. I am creative, reliable, hard-working and function well in a team environment or individually. I consider myself a strong communicator, presenter and listener.
My career goals are to continue to learn and grow as a graphic designer while utilising my creativity, knowledge, education and people skills to benefit my employer.
I look forward to meeting with you to further discuss my qualifications, goals and portfolio of sample work.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Yours Sincerely,
Isabel Carral
