At Logo Logo we specialise in engaging audiences with compelling web content. Our clients provide great products and services they just don't have a way to communicate that to new customers, so we help them tell their story. We focus on - > Immersive web design > Engaging infographics > Compelling video A majority of marketing is focused on digital channels, where the written word usually comes second to visual communication when capturing a customer's attention. We work with international brands in music, technology and sport for the likes of Universal Music, Discovery Channel, and Raspberry Pi to name a few. But we also love supporting Brighton and Hove's thriving small businesses with Sugardough, Sharp Stream, Straker Stationary and Chapter XIII as clients. Like coffee and talking shop? We are situated in the Werks opposite Palmeria Sq in a beautiful studio and we'd like to discuss how we can communicate your story online, plus we'll buy the coffee!

Frequent work came up here to help DJO when they became over burdened with work around deadline day. My main job was to oversee the final drafts of their magazines that were going to print. My use as a print designer/manager were applied here and I was able to help them manage multiple data heavy magazines with the highest standard known to man. These guys are digital guru's who let nothing pass without major scrutiny, I learnt that my eye for fine detail was not fine enough and had to learn some new techniques to make sure these images were pixel perfect. Great client and a real professional outfit.

I freelanced occasionally here at Ltd Ltd (one of the most innovative forward thinking print companies in London) in my earlier years of running my own business. This was a refreshing change for me to temporarily go back to the print world after spending a couple of years in the digital one. Managing huge time critical print runs for clients such as Google, HSBC etc,. kept my print and process skills up to date and reminded me how demanding it is in the print world. I like to dip into print jobs now and again but I am safely at home in the digital online world now. Great company, great people, great work.

I was the lead designer in a small company of 6 people providing signage to the UK. My role includes design primarily but I am also involved in overseeing projects from conception to completion. Our main clients currently are Merlin Entertainments, which include 'London Eye' 'Thorpe Park' 'Lego Land' & 'Chessington World of Adventures'. We have always taken on challenging jobs because we are not afraid of the unknown. We were a major part of the Venice Airport refurbishment which included digital signage and illuminated signs for all the designer brands throughout the airport, working side by side with MacArthur Glenn.

Part of a five man team producing labels and booklets to be applied to drug trial packaging across the globe. This role included converting text into 24 different languages and making sure they complied with certain laws, and creating databases for randomised drug trials. This was my first job after finishing university and it taught me good timekeeping skills, client facing relationships and professionalism in the workplace.
