Motion Graphics

With careful planning and an intuitive grasp of space, timing and velocity, I am adept at creating very unique and dynamic visuals and have produced many innovative presentations/animations using platforms such as Adobe After Effects and Cinema 4D. A selection of my work can be seen here.

​

Design & Creative
I have extensive expertise in producing well balanced, vibrant graphical design and my experience covers an interesting and diverse spectrum of projects for print and electronic media. I am at expert level in the operation of most modern graphics applications and possess the confidence and aptitude to quickly master new software and skills whenever required. Working creatively within strict brand guidelines and tight deadlines are also second nature. Some of my latest design work can be seen here.

Video & Image Manipulation

My work has necessitated a large degree of skill in photography, photo manipulation, image compression, scanning, proofing and retouching. Video has also been an integral component of my work, from filming with professional cameras/audio gear, to capturing, modifying and using the appropriate compression for a particular media.

 

Audio
I have always possessed a naturally good ear for musical composition. I have produced music, provided voice-overs, created sound effects and mixed/remixed audio for many multimedia presentations. My audio skills have been recognised as a key multimedia component and highly regarded by my employers. I also compose music on a freelance basis working to broadcast standards. A selection of my music can be found here.

 

Technical & Authoring
I have used both Mac and PC based systems extensively for several decades and the construction of many interactive presentations, websites and electronic mail has necessitated a high level of technical aptitude. I have a reasonable understanding of CSS, HTML and web terminology and practical experience using web authoring applications such as Adobe Dreamweaver and Flash. I am also confident in articulating my needs to developers who possess knowledge beyond my scope.

 

Work Ethos & Client Skills
I am confident in the art of liaising with clients in a happy, friendly and professional manner, and have received many awards and accolades respectively. I have a deep appreciation of the materials and methods available to a design based environment. I am also well practiced in organising and designating in a dignified fashion and command any task with respect and loyalty to my team as a whole.

 

Project Management
Good project management has always been a key factor in my work. I carefully plan and consider all of the variables on a job before commencing and always maintain a regimented and rewarding system of production. I have made good use of CRM and time management software such as Workfront, and have maintained the use of strict administrative systems for many years.
