Craig Burtenshaw - Professional Profile & Bio at Ziggs

Biography

"The essence of profound insight is simplicity"

I have been working in design related industries for over 15 years. I'm passionate about and relish working in a creative field. I have a wealth of experience in multimedia, digital and graphic design. Also I have experience in brand management and development, search engine optimisation, traditional off-line; print, packaging and graphic design, video production, photography and photo shoot direction, experiential, viral and social media.

With my broader experience with architecture, interior design, IT and 3D Graphics and my keen interest in photography and illustration I don’t see myself as just a digital or graphic designer. I instead prefer to see the broader picture when developing a solution for a client and focus on the opportunities.

One of my key strengths is my adaptability. I am able to jump easily from being a designer, to a coder, to art director, to project manager and to decision maker.

Most recently I was Creative Director at On Que, a digital communications agency based in Ultimo, Sydney. I've been Creative Director of my own successful boutique design studio. I was the Studio Manager and a Senior Designer for one of the UK's top 100 design agencies. And I have freelanced or been a consultant for some of the most recognisable multinational brands.
