Lead Creative
Worked at a daily basis on a variety of projects for high profile clients in the UK & European industry, mainly from the creative brief / pitch stage and the conceptual look & feel stage. From that point I sometimes worked throughout the production phase of a project or I passed it on to junior members of the Design Studio for the final production. The majority of projects that I worked involve a number of team members from Design, 3D and Technical areas and as a Lead it was my responsibility to work closely with these teams and ensure that any design work is being developed in the right creative direction. Clients I have worked with include EA Games, Adobe, 19 Entertainment, Eidos, Nickelodeon, Nintendo, Sony Playstation, Sony Europe, Cadbury, Microsoft, ESPA, COI, Emma Watson, to name a few.
