My actual mission statement

Sean's Dick. gottem.

Mission Statement

I help humanitarian and environmental causes inspire volunteers by creating pieces that pressure large companies to help the cause. I will differentiate myself from other designers because I am a detail obsessed creator.

My Niche

At my core I am an Illustrator, it is what I did as a child and is something I still do now. As a designer though the bulk of my skills are in motion and branding. While I can do UX design right now I wouldn't say it is one of my most proficient skills. My current style is clean and natural. Which means that while my designs may look neat and refined, I like to employ an element of natural movement or style to them. Whether it is typography being animated a certain way or a poster that exhibits more grounded characteristics, I believe that is where I gravitate to. Stone and wood aesthetics are both really attractive to me, as well as industrial and punk elements. These are obviously at two different ends of the spectrum and I enjoy playing with them and fusing them in my work.

One technology company, one lifestyle company, and one NGO. These are the kinds of clients I could see myself wanting to work for, whether it is creating a large campaign for a new product or helping improve the funcionality of an NPO's website/creating assets for them. All of these sorts of services are things I would happily consider taking up work on. 

I want to be the person who is brought in to help direct a project or rebrand a company. I cannot do everything but I feel that I have enough knowledge to be able to direct people to accomplish something bigger than myself, whether that is creating a campaign to save the ocean or sell some really cool headphones I don't quite know myself. One particular problem that I would be intreseted in solving is that of education, and creating supplementary tools that help young people and children learn effectively. Whether the subject is biology or history I have a deep passion for the pursuit of knowledge and I love learning every day. I come from the perspective of an avid learner so hopefully I will be the designer who finds new ways to tackle whatever problem my client has to offer, introducing bold or unorthodox methods. Which means I need clients willing to risk it.
