About me

All artwork produced by the company passes through me before finally going to print. This can include brochures, flyers, posters, books, business cards, folders, magazine and newspaper advertising, building hoarding.

My workflow includes proof reading, retouching and colour correction of images, imposition, preflight checks, special finish file creation (spot UV, foil blocking, embossing, cutting guide, etc.), final file checking and exporting for digital and litho printing.

I am also responsible for managing the production of outsourced litho brochures including placing orders, uploading files and checking proofs. Digital brochures are printed in-house and delivered on the same day. This means I have frequent contact with clients and printers ensuring that deadlines are kept and any potential problems are avoided.

When required I also run the in-house print room, importing, imposing, printing, laminating, creasing and trimming documents.

Other responsibilities include supporting the graphic designers by creating brochures from templates, managing the archiving of all company photography, assisting the full-time retoucher by compositing images from multiple exposures and also ensuring that printing supply stock levels

are maintained.
