Projects
- Light NessLight Ness was my major project, hoping to start up a new creative festival in my home town and get creatives to work together and light up the city during its darkest months. The festival reached people all over the world with artists and designers sending in proposals from New Mexico to the Philippines.
- James Bond Book CoversThe brief for this project was to create two bitmap book covers from a series. I chose Moonraker and Diamonds Are Forever from the James Bond series as I was reading the series at the time. The Moonraker cover was created using my graphics tablet and photoshop brushes and the Diamonds Are Forever cover was created using a photograph of a sequin I had taken, copied over and over to create the diamond effect. The background was created with solid colour and a 'dustboard' photoshop brush over the top.
Work history
Social Media Manager
Through ScotGrad’s summer placement program I was hired as Market Development Officer for the SUPER!NATURAL brand. During my time in the placement I managed the social media pages and organised a student campaign where SUPER!NATURAL featured at a number of Fresher’s Fayres across Scotland. I also arranged for a number of Student Brand Ambassadors in certain Colleges and Universities. I now control their social media, having grown their following on Facebook and Twitter and continue to run competitions at various times of the year.
