TOM BADGE

big words guy

Former child, aspiring employee. A creative with a varied skillset trying to avoid saying multi-disciplinary. Experienced in graphic design, photography, animation, copywriting, babysitting and bartending, I aim to keep an agency and a client very happy by creating compelling work.

I think a healthy BS-meter is one of the best things to have in this industry. Too often I look at an ad interrupting my hour long concert streaming on YouTube (I’m not buying premium and I’m tired of the question), and wonder which great mind decided that the moment before the final hit chorus was the perfect spot to try flog some discounted SIM cards.

If we’re not frothing over it, Joe Public won’t look up from their second screen. Let’s do better. And have fun along the way.

Please enjoy looking through some of my work!
