Russell Meyler

I’m Russell, a Dublin City based Graphic Designer. I graduated from the design college, Dublin Institute of Technology in 2010 with a 2nd class Honours Degree in Visual Communications. After my education I enrolled in the ICAD Upstarts in 2011 earning valuable experience on short term briefs which gave me a grounded sense of the fast pace of project work in the world of graphic design.

I’ve worked as a freelancer for 3 years between Ireland and Germany most of that time spent in Promotions and Marketing in Dublin before moving onto web design in Hamburg working for superReal and Pier2Port respectively.

Currently I am a designer with drawinginc which has helped me gain valuable knowledge of web, branding, and print processes and moulded me as an all-round design professional in a close-knit team environment. I spearhead much of the studios pharmaceutical work as well as designing presentation pitches for campaigns surrounding signage systems and point-of-sale for DIY and home improvement companies. I also attend business networking meetings to represent our company in the absence of our creative director when needed.

I’m a proficient user of Photoshop, Illustrator and Indesign for my work and carry a working knowledge of After Effects, Keynote, WordPress, Microsoft Word and Powerpoint, and basic HTML. I also have experience in wireframing with Omnigraffle and Sketch. I am passionate about all areas of design and visual communication and I attend exhibitions as frequently as possible.
