About me
Beardy (a name that predates the recent worldwide face fuzz epidemic) Bryn Jones is a versatile and conceptual creative who brings personality and warmth to brands. He has written, art directed and overseen numerous colourful advertising campaigns over 15 years. An accomplished scriptwriter and published author, he has also been hired by many clients to bring character and storytelling to their communications.
Bryn has created ideas for all media channels on and off line. He loves to collaborate with others and his friendly and approachable manner means that he works well in any team structure. His knowledge and experience allow him to give input at an early strategic level and his wide-ranging abilities can be utilised at every stage of the creative process right up to the Powerpoint presentation – which he can also do and finds strangely therapeutic.
Bryn believes it is important to continue to evolve as a creative, trying new things and widening his skill set – most recently he took up the pens again and gave illustrating a whirl and now has a growing set of poster prints decorating thousands of homes all over the World. Whatever it is that Bryn is creating, whether he is writing, art directing or doodling, at the heart of it is a desire to make a positive and memorable connection with his audience.
