Candidate
ACD/Art Director/Manager
Available For:
Contract, Freelance, Direct Hire, Temp-to-Perm
Ideal Position:
Art Director/Manager in a creative, conceptual agency or in-house department. I
love working in a team atmosphere and excel in TV, print, viral web content, whatever
needs to be done to make breakthrough advertising and promotion. I have also successfully
managed graphic and advertising departments leading the team from concept through
production.
Ideal Environment:
I excel at being a part of a team and bring fresh ideas and approaches to the party.
But, I am also a hands-on Art Director and can put presentations together and work
with other team members to complete the assignment. I have worked in small art departments
to large creative departments and look at everything as a creative challenge.
Past Experience:
I have worked at some of the biggest Ad Agencies that excel at 360 branding on huge
accounts. I presented my work to brand managers and top CEOs. My forte is kids brands
- from toddlers to tweens. But I have also worked on many other adult brands. I
was invited to be an integral part of the new business team and have worked on many
pitches too.
Currently:
I have been working freelance for the past 2 years. I just finished working on products
related to the Disney movie "Tangled." I am also a part of the team that just launched
some of Mattel's latest products with a huge viral campaign on YouTube. I am also
a graphic designer and have clients that I design logos, invitations, flyers and
books for.
Additional:
I have a great sense of humor and creative attitude that fits in anywhere. I've
also had the opportunity to work with some of the top animation companies in the
U.S and Australia to produce innovative and breakthrough animation for my TV commercials.
I have strong creative vision and leadership skills proven to make a brand successful.
