I'm a graphic designer with 5 years of international experience.
During these few years of experience I had the opportunity to work for small design shops, corporations, and global ad agencies alike. This includes companies like GAP Inc, Ogilvy & Mather, Pure Creative, Cisco Systems, Cannondale and now Norco.
Principaux clients: Editions Niveales, Prospectiv.net (Decathlon, Hummel, Knauf), Cannondale bikes, Masal Advertising.
2008 - 2012In-house designer: principalement Packaging, mais aussi Publicité, mailing, web et catalogues.
In-house graphic designer for packaging, advertising, promo, P.O.P., catalog and websites. Also conceptualizing product industrial design as well as managing projects from very start to finish.
More specifically specializing in scale brands. I was 100% in charge of all the following steps: receiving a request for an original scale idea, I would conceptualize the functions, make sure that the product fits within our range and fills a market need. From there, design the product, render it in 3D and work with engineers to make the design a reality. Once the final product samples approved, shoot the pictures that would be used in all visuals, create packaging die-lines & design, barcodes, patent drawings, legal information, product manual, graphics and more. Upon approval of these, design marketing materials: magazine adverts, product sheets, POP and promo.
Within four years at HBI I completely revamped the graphic department processes. In the beginning there was no actual process and files were scattered among the three offices in Canada, USA and Europe. I put in place and complete management process with file formats & naming conventions, request forms, file checking process & forms, department guidelines, file centralization and more. I was basically using all information that was previously disorganized and formatting it so that anyone taking over a project without prior experience with it could find his ways efficiently based on the guideline document provided. The graphic department progressively became more efficient with a faster turnaround and a dramatically reduced error rate.
