I am an experienced graphic designer, a published editorial illustrator (including Maxim, Financial Times, Men’s Fitness) and motion graphics/character animator. My last two positions have been with London based animation studio Content Creatures and Cardiff based agency CR studio, where I was involved in the re-branding of Brains (flexing my copy writing skills to come up with the new brand tagline which has now been adopted on bottles and merchandise.) I have also recently produced illustrations for 2 Brains beer pump designs, which will be introduced in pubs over the next few months. My work can be seen at jamesbarryillustration.com.
