I like to craft, create and interact with a project, creating something on a larger scale with mixed media to challenge the formalities implied by a fixed frame.
I would like to work as a part of a creative team, not because I am easy to subdue when it comes down to decision making, but I like the atmosphere generated from a collective of practitioners. I find it something that would also greatly further my skills, and help to evolve myself as a designer.
Working with the clothing industry is something I would like to work towards, being not only a trainer pioneer, but having an interest in the visuals used by brands. This does not just mean the sports giants such as Adidas or Nike, but the lesser known independant companies, as I think it would help to work in a collaborative practice with people.
I would like to work locally prematurely, as to gain more confidence in practice. It also gives me a chance to create a healthy relationship with local printers, which could prove very useful in the future.
I have no real stance ethically, as I dont see the need to have any ethics, wanting to keep all the doors of opportunity open.
My skills include knowing the ins and outs of standard industry software, illustration, crafting, and typography, although the latter is not a specialist skill.
I would like to work locally in the leeds/north area of the UK and hope to work in Germany later on, as I would like to be able to design internationally.
Competition would include low-brow or mid-key agencies/companies, as I dont think that I would reach international renown and work with the giants in the industry.
Using the local design community to get my foot on the industry ladder, I hope to work for, or collaborate with typographers, as to extend my skills, and to get a better footing for similar jobs.
I can see my clients being from locals, to nationwide and then internationals, I believe that my design can be used internationally.
