Thanks for connecting H!

thanks for the add

I am an experienced Creative Director, Production Designer and Art Director skilled at developing creative solutions for a variety of clients across multiple media. Becoming a creative director is a natural progression from Art Direction to Creative Director and comes with experience and need. Despite having the title, I'm still a hands on creative - not merely the management who gets wheeled in for meetings. It means knowing how designers work; what makes them tick, knowing when they're stuck or need help. It's about trust. It's about providing ideas and above all it's about inspiration. I have worked extensively on Studio design, Studio Management, advertising campaigns, TV spots, print materials, branding of Fabric Material, direct mail and Drama and other forms of advertising. I have experience in Film industry, Advertisement, Production Management and Designing the Package of the Product, Branding, designing the backdrop of a movie, stage play or an event. As a strategic thinker with superior design principles, I am also very detail oriented, and has a keen ability to formulate and design fresh concepts with minimal supervision.
I designs with the belief that process and collaboration should be as exciting and fun as the end result. After 10 years of creative leadership roles in the design and marketing industry I've created and delivered literally hundreds of presentations to help clients sell their big ideas. Over that time I've learned a few things: I love to share ideas that empower people with tools to grow and succeed and the art of persuasive storytelling is almost completely absent from most organizations. This love of teaching and the opportunity to improve how organizations sell their ideas and engage with clients is the impetus. After spending the past few years working largely alone servicing my clients (which I have enjoyed), I wants to become part of a creative team with an open exchange of ideas. I likes to make the creative process fun and develop a family-oriented creative team that involves every member of the team throughout the creative process. I am unique in that while I am a creative at heart, I used to interacting directly with clients and I am somebody you can feel confident about representing your agency in client pitches and meetings. I believes in developing strong client relationships based on trust and open communication. Being a good listener. Whether it's clients or my own team, I spend a lot of time listening - really listening. It's the only way I've found of really understanding what a client's issues are, for example. I'm not a huge talker in meetings, I listen a lot and aim to speak only when I've got a really good question to ask. It should be all about the client, not the agency. Similarly, in-house take the time to listen to your team and accept that you can learn from them. Don't let your great ideas die. Start presenting with purpose today! Specialties: conceptual thinking, storytelling, client presentations, strong presentation skills, new business pitches, branding, mentoring, career coach, creative leadership, team leadership, building client relationships
