An agency put me forward for the role.
A relevant degree is preferred, but being able to demonstrate good understanding of design and development concepts with a good portfolio is more essential.
Working with provided briefs to produce a variety of different web/print/interactive promotions. This includes; flash banners, CD covers, CD wallets, mini-games, mailers, landing pages, promotional pages, animations and flyers.
What was your best day at work?
I had to produce a CD wallet, CD cover, letterhead and launcher software for a campaign revolving around Tomb Raider. The marketing team were so impressed with the result that they showed it to a director who personally complimented me saying it was one of the best CD sets he’d ever seen.
What was your worst day at work?
Haven’t really had one yet
Are there any perks to your job?
Working with a very a talented team of creatives is always a perk. I’ve learned a lot and made some good friends. Because it’s a creative department, it’s very laid back and I always have a laugh.
What do you like about your job?
The sheer variety of tasks I have to do means that I’m never doing the same thing over and over again. We also have a foosball table in the office, which is of course… a perk.
What don’t you like about your job?
The sheer volume of work can be overwhelming sometimes, so I often find myself sacrificing quality for quantity.
Would you recommend this job to someone else?
Yes
