About me

behance.net/jakerussondraws I'm an Illustrator/Designer who has been working for the last three years for Ogilvy UK's B2B marketing office in Guildford–developing visual identities and campaigns for a roster of B2B clients. I'm definitely creatively curious and feel compelled to push the boundaries! I've worked with premium brands, such as Samsung, Vodafone and Nokia and work closely with account managers to create sound working relationships with clients. My skill set, that I've developed over the last eight years, revolves around Graphic Design (print/digi) and Illustration, making good use of Adobe Indesign, Illustrator and Photoshop, and working for Ogilvy - powerpoint is a must, so I'm well versed in presentation design. With my background in illustration I have a thirst to work on bold, bright, hearty, textural, conceptual and well considered projects using a range of visual languages. I can quickly adapt others graphic styles as my own and reproduce with accuracy. Since collaborating with multi-media teams to develop video content and producing promotional films, I'm actively developing my knowledge of video production as another string to my bow. I'm looking forward to advancing these skills with the right team and put my illustration arsenal to good use. I hope you enjoy my work.
