About me & what I can help you with
Hi! I'm Chris! I'm a full time lecturer & Stamford College in Lincolnshire, and freelance around my teaching hours to ensure I am teaching the correct skills and techniques to the students I educate. I am qualified to a level 6 Post-Grad in education (PGDE) and am currently working towards a MA in Graphic Design. I have been teaching since 2018, but prior to this I spent over 12 years working in the creative industry as a graphic designer.
I am experience in branding and brand development, developing the creation of strong brand stories and embedding them into a range of mediums. I can cover Graphic Design, Photography, Animation, Motion Graphics, Web Design, Videography, Illustration, 3D amongst other forms of creativity.
I am extremely passionate about creativity, and believe theres is no limit to what can be achieved in this form. I specialise in Graphic Design, and branding, but through education I am achieved a range of skillsets which I am about to use to serve clients in my freelance work.
At this stage in my career I don't foresee that I will leave education, as I find great reward in embedding knowledge and seeing young people achieve. However I intend to keep working to freelance around my teaching hours, to keep my skills sharp and further develop my skillset.
What I cover
Graphic Design (branding, visual identity)
Animation (Motion Graphics)
Website Design (Prototyping & Development)
Illustration (Digital/Vector/Raster)
Photography (Image Editing/Retouching)
3D Design (Visualisations)
Videography (Video Editing)
My process
My design process is transparent throughout the whole project. It starts with a chat, we'll discuss your requirements, what you want to achieve and what inspires you. After I've got visibility of what you require, I will produce a purchase order detailing the whole project. This is essentially a guide to what order I will work to, what I will explore, and what I will delivery to you. This purchase order will be broken down into stages. From the list above you will see that I cover all aspects of creativity, so whatever your requirements it is my goal to meet your needs. After the project has reached fulfillment it doesn't end there, I can continue to provide support to you in brand guardianship, to manage and maintain your brand or visual identity through the course of your journey.
