ID&C is the UK's largest provider of festival wristbands for both personal and commercial customers, with this came a fast-paced, demanding but ultimately rewarding work environment.As an artwork designer, I was responsible for the fast turnaround through multiple design channels within the business. Day to day involved dealing with online customer orders which could entail anything from providing mock-ups of artwork, digitally proofing the orders and making amendments where necessary and then liaising back with the customer for approval to process the order. The other aspect of the job came from larger clients who may submit a request for artwork via one of the sales team or may be a repeat client such as Live Nation, SJM, etc with either festival requests or bespoke one-off bands for an event. Primarily working in Adobe Illustrator we had to provide full, professional mockups, within a timely manner and to the strong specifications of the clients brief or even sometimes given more creative control. This came on top of managing all other aspects around the design side of the business so organization and a keen eye for detail were key.
