Oct 2009 to Feb 2011
Art Director at Aqueduct

At Aqueduct, Carolyn and I were the only team in the small creative department. This means we got involved at the grass roots of a job including strategy and planning. We finely tuned our skill of cracking a brief within tight deadlines. And had to become client facing presenting at pitches and chemistry meetings and to existing clients. We've also got involved in compiling the creative part of scoping and pitch documents or creative presentations.

It also enabled us to re-engage in new digital thinking more specifically concepting, art directing and developing apps, social media strategies and campaigns and big-build websites.

My role as Art Director, as well as the regular duties extended to some basic art working, illustration and logo designing.

Aug 2007 to Aug 2009
Art Director at The Leith Agency & Farm

Our role was mostly big idea thinking and executions for a range of clients over the 4 advertising agencies within the group: Leith, Farm, Tangible and Blonde.

One of the biggest clients was the COI, which included campaign topics as diverse as the jab to protect against cervical cancer, longer-lasting contraception awareness, and the Additional Support for Learning Act.

As well as Buchanan Galleries, a huge shopping centre in Scotland where we produced their new brand from scratch, including developing a new tone of voice, visual identity and their campaigns and events which worked across all their media channels.
