What I do in a minute and twenty five seconds:https://vimeo.com/385413925Website:https://www.chrisconlinillustration.comQuality, efficiency, creativity and clear communication are the driving forces behind the way I work.Whether the goal is clean and simple logos and icons, story telling, product branding, motion graphics, or traditional illustration, I utilize a variety of mediums and techniques to make it happen. My experience includes comprehensive design research and development, concepts and rough sketches, on-brand design strategies across multiple categories and execution of final product in both full-time, team oriented production environments as well as on an independent freelance basis. In addition, Sharp Tools Productions was created from a desire to culminate artistic abilities in the form of short films. My roles include building and developing visual identity, story development, copywriting, web design, motion graphic development and execution, editing and seeking out new concepts and subjects to feature.See more here at:https://www.sharptoolsproductions.com/
