I'm Matt Noyes, a passionate art director and designer based in Bar Harbor, Maine. With over two decades of experience in creative fields, I've cultivated a diverse skill set that allows me to bring unique visions to life. As the Design & Marketing Director at Witham Family Hotels, I was responsible for the logo development and design, branding, marketing, and design for multiple properties in the portfolio, managing a range of creative responsibilities, from directing photo shoots to producing cohesive design systems. My work required meticulous attention to detail in typography, layout, color, logo design and brand development—all essential skills and experience that can be applied to creating compelling book interiors and covers. At Johnny’s Selected Seeds, I collaborated on multi-channel design projects, including catalog redesigns and email marketing campaigns. I directed photography for both studio and location shoots, ensuring visual assets were seamlessly integrated into print and digital formats. My time at L.L. Bean as an Art Director created the foundation for my expertise in designing for large-scale print projects, maintaining composition standards, and leading production for seasonal catalogs. Other strengths include: • Designing and producing cohesive 4-color layouts that meet high-quality print standards. • Managing cross-functional collaborations with photographers, illustrators, and designers. • Ensuring precise alignment between creative vision and production processes. • Directing photo shoots and curating visual elements to elevate storytelling. Looking beyond my technical skills, I understand the need to balance creative innovation with efficient workflows. My history of managing multiple projects simultaneously and proactively solve problems and create efficient workflows will help to ensure deadlines are consistently met without compromising quality. I am particularly inspired by the opportunity to work with people at the beginning of their visual and brand vision. I am confident my expertise in design, coupled with my proven leadership and collaboration skills, will make me a valuable asset to your team. I am happy to provide examples of my work or discuss how my experience aligns with your needs.…I'm Matt Noyes, a passionate art director and designer based in Bar Harbor, Maine.
