  Mark Warner brochuresWhile working at Mark Warner, one of my main responsibilities was to produce the annual Ski and Summer brochures. This involved designing the layouts and producing cover designs. I also handled the production, including liaising with other departments (Finance, Flights, Childcare, Activities etc.). This also included art direction of photoshoots and liaising with printers, negotiating costs and attending press passes.
• WIX website for local artistI recently put together a Wix website for a local artist, Amy Huitson, creating the lifestyle mockups and setting up the gallery and online shop. I briefed the client on how to update and maintain the website themselves, but I'm always available if they need any help. If you need a WIX or WordPress site created from scratch or would simply like a refresh of your existing site - please get in contact.
• Social media videosVideos and animated GIFs for social media (facebook, instagram & google) campaigns, produced for Mark Warner, using Photoshop and After Effects and Premier Pro.
• Chalet LenaThe owner of of this exclusive, new (opened 2020) chalet in St Anton, approached me to produce the branding. I sent them several ideas from which they chose this handwritten style script. I sent them several different colourways before they settled on the rose gold colour. I also arranged a photo and video shoot for the owner.
• Brothers of TignesBrothers of Tignes is a support group for men living in Tignes, France – raising awareness of mental health, suicide being the biggest killer of Men aged 18-45. When I heard my friend was setting up this group, I was keen to get involved in anyway I could. He asked if I could design a logo for him to use on social media and a poster displayed in resort. A calendar is also in the pipeline to raise some money for MIND UK and support events in the resort.
• Mountain Spa ResidencesThe owner of this new hotel and restaurant, located in St Anton, Austria asked me to produce new branding to reflect the exclusive nature of the new property. I also produced designs for the uniform, stationery and signage.

Creatives behind the lensecorbis images
Creatives Behind the Lens originated in Paris when photolibrary Corbis France teamed up with the French Art Directors Club to invite people from the creative industry to submit their unpublished photography work. Corbis launched a UK version last year. For the 2006 UK competition, entrants were invited to submit up to four previously unpublished photographs to be assessed by a panel of judges consisting of: Siri Vorbeck, director of creative imagery EMEA, Corbis; Neil Lankester, creative director, Ogilvy Design; Jonathan Hubbard, creative director, Interbrand; Coneyl Jay, photographer and Patrick Burgoyne, editor, Creative Review. The judges chose 35 images which were then exhibited in London in July.
