Design By Ben

A graphic designer/artworker with many years experience both freelance and in-house. My most recent role at Live Nation Entertainment had me producing design, artwork and video for print and digital, for national tours and shows from some of the most famous artists in the world. I got to combine my love of music with what I do for a living - epic! A brand concept I developed and pitched was chosen for a new European comedy festival due to launch in 6 major cities across Europe in the summer – Look out for Comedy Stop! I've successfully lead and developed a brand and packaging for a start up cereal company. I have played an integral role in the brand development and implementation, for a well known charity across a number of products and campaigns. A brand guardian – implementing brands alongside agencies Johnson Banks and ASHA. I've had the privilege creating a brand for a successful pop-up charity retail store, which has 'popped-up' in Norwich, Watford and Birmingham, and is up for a retail award. Being a bit of a movie buff and a huge Disney/PIXAR fan since day dot, I chose to study animation with a school based in L.A., learning from some of the best in the biz. As a result I have a solid understanding of video, key-framing and editing using various software. At the risk of sounding SO cliché - There are many strings to my bow, let me fire some in your direction (also sounds a little like a call to action for a dating add)!
