I’m R Kamalakannan, a multidisciplinary creative professional with a passion for design, storytelling, and visual communication. Over more than a decade I’ve blended Illustration, graphic design, photography, and video editing to craft concept-driven visuals for brands across FMCG, education, and real estate. I lead creative teams, develop storyboards, and push ideas from rough sketches to polished productions. I love exploring color theory, typography, and UX-friendly layouts to create engaging experiences. When I’m not designing, I shoot photos, write lyrics, and contribute illustrations that align with brand identities and campaign goals.…I’m R Kamalakannan, a multidisciplinary creative professional with a passion for design, storytelling, and visual communication.
