I'm James Poostchi, a versatile digital designer, illustrator and motion graphics artist based in London. Over the last 15 years I've worked for fashion magazines, in-house teams, design firms and advertising agencies for clients including McDonalds, Renault, Honda, Hugo Boss, Converse, EasyJet, The Army, HP, Google and Disney. I've taken on roles as art director, designer and animator and I've even stepped in as project manager when needed. I thrive on switching styles and managing multiple projects at once. My strengths include creating social videos, DOOH, and title sequences; I enjoy sketching, typography and life drawing; I also love rock climbing with my half-pug, half-beagle called Carlito who goes everywhere with me when allowed.
