Celebrating my 6th year in creating content for a wide variety of brands and products, I am now seeking to further my career and management experience in a new creative role.
Beyond creating content I have spent many years working directly with brands to develop a marketing strategy with each new product release by determining target markets and trends, before going on to create all of the creative content necessary to release and market a product. Managing content has also been key, making sure it is readily available to distributors and retailers worldwide in order to maintain a strong and consistent brand identity.
I am fully competent in creating content to the highest standards. This includes everything from white background macro product photography for product pages, texture and lifestyle photography, marketing videos and adverts for web and social media, as well as graphics such as web banners, flyers, leaflets, exhibition displays, and printed ads.
Both working with external creatives and managing a small in-house creative team within the marketing department allows me to present and relay clear briefs that share the same creative vision and brand principles. Designing and presenting briefs for creative content and campaigns is something I do on a regular basis, whether that is clearly communicating a creative project directly to a brand, or collaborating with social media and marketing agencies. Managing time, delegation and overseeing projects of team members has been a key part of creating successful campaigns to tight deadlines.
Deep knowledge in a wide variety of creative disciplines has allowed me to hone my skills using digital editing software such as the Adobe CC Suite, including Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign, as well as Final Cut Pro X and Logic Pro X. I have found that having detailed knowledge of current camera equipment and creative software has a direct impact on how I plan a project, how long it will take, and how cam- paign needs will reflect on budget.
