About me
Since August 1981 I have worked as a freelance designer and art director for advertising agencies, design groups and marketing consultancies.
I currently run my own design company either working directly for clients or being part of a team to help finalise projects. My experience covers a wide range of promotional projects in different markets.
Design and promotional skills:
- Advertising campaigns and promotional work for hotel and leisure industry;
- Corporate identity for companies including: computer, marketing, financial institutions and property clients.
- Residential property brochures and advertising for estate agents;
- Sales force literature and newsletters;
- Packaging concepts and design work;
- Brochures, annual reports and exhibition boards;
- Charity organisation literature;
Services:
I offer two services; the first involves taking a brief and implementing ideas through to design layouts and final production, while working closely with clients to understand their requirements. Alternatively I can finalise existing concepts into final work in preparation for printing, for example for larger projects such as catalogues. Sourcing photography and handling printers is undertaken if required.
Studio facilities:
Full studio set up including Power Mac system, laser printing and scanning facilities. I use the principal Mac software programmes including Adobe Creative Suite 2, Quark Xpress 7, Freehand and other specialist software.
