Working as an Art Director in the advertising industry for over 20 years I’ve gained a great deal of experience creating concepts and art directing work through to the finished article. Be it posters, ads, leaflets, brochures or catalogues, I’ve done it. Working at ad agencies in London (ABM, DDB), Manchester (Radford, Stowe/Bowden/Wilson, CSM, McCann, Rex Stewart), Leeds (Murray/Malty/Walker/West) and in Sydney (McCann – ‘below the line’, freelance).

In addition I also work as a photographer having learnt from some of Manchester’s best photographers such as Ian Woolams, David Seed, Tom Graty, Paul Fosbury, and John Cooper to name but a few.

SKILLS:
Fully Mac literate in Photoshop, InDesign, Illustrator, Quark and Freehand. Familiar with Dreamweaver MX. Have experience using and publishing with WordPress and MailChimp.
A comprehensive understanding of print and colour processing involving everything from large scale 48 sheet sites, 6 sheet posters, asdshells, bus sides/rears, double page spreads, catalogues, folders, packaging, point of sale, to single page one colour flyers.
Art Directing work through from initial concept to the finished product.
Organising an executing photographic shoots (both as the art director and as the photographer). Hiring photographers, studios, models (children and adults), set makers, model makers, stylists. Working within budget.
