Where it all began
In high school i decided to take Design as one of my senior subjects. I chose this as i have a flair for creativity and creating new things that have a use and purpose. My teacher however, was an artist and knew little on the subject. Me being the curious individual that i am, went and researched on the subject and taught myself how to draw properly and beautifully through books and tutorials. My Graphic Design skills developed by me playing with programs and reading articles about the subject.
Graphic Design
I graduated from UniCollege West Rand with a bCom Higher National Diploma in Graohic Design. There i learnt to work the programs and shortcuts and how to design beautifully and with a function, to solve the problem at hand and work under immense pressure. I enjoyed the course thoroughly as it challenged me and taught me to think for myself and to create beautiful designs that were according to what i was briefed.
Freelance
In my freelance designing I have designed digital and print media. This has gained me quite some experience in working with people and clients and how to interpret exactly what they want out of their design.
Photography
I have done a Photography short course teaching me how to manually set the program up for different types of scenes and sessions. This has taught be basic principles of photography and how to take photographs of packaging all the way to studio models. I have learned what the setups should be like and the lighting for every subject that is used. I now know what goes into the photographic side of design and i know how to set up a photoshoot and how to create perfect photographs.
