Part of delivering first class brand campaigns is getting print and finishing execution correct. With a Graphic Reproduction / Pre-Press qualification and background, I understand and implement the technical processes required to make print execution come off the press looking as good as the design on screen. From colour correction to retouching and finished art, Spot vs 4 colour process, Opaque whites, Spot Gloss varnishing, Foiling, Stock choice and 3rd party print management, I make sure the end product hits the shelves looking as the concept intended.

Creating campaign design requires a clear understanding of the target audience, brand objectives, and key messaging. It involves developing visual elements and copy that work cohesively to convey the intended story and evoke the desired emotional response. Every component, from colour schemes and typography to imagery and layout, must align with the brand’s identity and campaign goals. Attention to detail ensures consistency across multiple channels, while flexibility allows adaptation to different formats and platforms. Ultimately, effective campaign design balances creativity with strategic insight to deliver measurable impact.
