I am a Senior Designer/Artworker with over 15 years professional experience working within the graphic design and advertising industries. Having a graphic design background I have a creative eye as well as the accuracy and attention to detail needed as an artworker. I am just as happy taking design jobs from initial briefing all the way through to finished artwork as I am working on individual parts of the design or artwork process.I have been described as happy and easy going – fitting in with any team I have been asked to work alongside. I have exceptional organisational and management skills and a wealth of knowledge gained from seeing how different studios function, what works and most importantly the benefit of many years experience.My background in both the London and Birmingham creative industries has equipped me with a broad range of skills, such as creative designing, artworking, branding, illustrating, Photoshop retouching, visualising, working on pitch presentations, studio management including overseeing freelancers, excellent Apple Mac IT skills, good prepress knowledge, as well as liaising with printers on job specifications, quotation sourcing, proofing and checking jobs on press.I'm currently working as a Senior Graphic Designer/Artworker at Hype! in London. Prior to this I was freelancing for 4 years working for a broad range of creative agencies as well as in-house studios such as: The Partners, VCCP, Sky, Virgin Media, Pizza Express, TalkTalk, Schroders Bank, TK Maxx, Royal Mail, Euro RSCG Life Medicom, Kindred, Xerox, RPM, Legatum Institute, Proletariat, Work Communications, GVA, Mitie, Thirty Three, Vivid Lime, TCA, Baber Smith and many others...You can view my website here: www.tombarker.co.uk
