About this blog:
Starting a new blog, is somewhat like opening a new sketchbook and staring deeply into the empty page... This blog is dedicated to finally showing off and keeping track of the numerous creative endeavors and achievements that fill my work life.
Why '_v3' ? Simply because i feel beauty, elegance, and harmony are spontaneously discovered but require at least a third version to be concrete.

What I do:
Working for the past two years as an Art Director at Agnitio A/S, the primary focus of my work has been developing and implementing creative solutions for digital detailing aids used in the pharmaceutical industry. Such projects require a strategic combination of graphic design, interaction design, animation and video.
As a result, I have been responsible for the various stages of production ranging from concept and story development to graphic design, implementation, scripting, and maintenance.
Due to my extensive experience with the Adobe suite and using Flash as my primary development tool, I have been responsible for outlining and managing the creative and technical execution of projects, which often includes navigation, content layout, motion graphics and animation.
I have successfully collaborated with colleagues, directed external freelancers, and trained external creative agencies.
My experience has given me greater understanding and insight in overcoming the numerous challenges in providing the right creative solution for clients, while also dealing with tight deadlines and budgets.
In earlier years, I have conducted instructional courses at both The Royal Academy of Fine Arts School of Architecture and IT University in multimedia production. I have also worked as a freelance consultant in front-end Flash development for Zupa ApS.
Through my 10 years of collective experience in multimedia production, I have gained a critical eye for detail, an advanced ability to communicate ideas visually and a keen sense for functionality, along with an extensive working knowledge of the Adobe Creative Suite.
In addition to Adobe, I also have an in-depth working knowledge of a wide range of 2D and 3D software.
Therefore, I am confident that I would represent an abundant source of new creativity, imagination, and know-how, necessary for creative projects of all types.
My professional competencies include:
* In-depth working knowledge of the Adobe CS Packs (3-5), Actionscript 2&3
* Strong understanding of XML & HTML
* In-depth working knowledge of 3DS Max, SketchUp, and other 3D visualization software
* Comprehensive experience with other Macromedia / Adobe software
* Strong ability to communicate visual ideas
* A strong background in traditional media (drawing, painting, sculpture)
* Functional both as a team player and independently
* Adaptable, visionary and creative
