“There are three responses to a piece of design – yes, no, and WOW! Wow is the one to aim for.” - Milton Glaser
Anthony Hale
I am a graduate of Baldwin Wallace University with a Digital Media and Design: Interactive Design degree . I live in Akron, Ohio.
My education has helped me develop the technical skills and creative vision needed for the dynamic career field of graphic design. Coursework in communications, fine art, and computer science has provided a strong foundation. I have learned how to create compelling visuals, write targeted messages, and enhance web and media usability through photography, videography, programming, and graphic design. My real-world focused education has provided diverse hands-on learning and portfolio-building opportunities that showcase my work.
I currently work at Gannett as a creative Consultant. Where I help create ads for digital and multiple different print publications. Gannett is in fast past and very deadline centered industry and that has allowed me to grow in those areas.
I gained valuable experience at Epiphany Management Group and worked directly with the senior graphic designer, working on projects such as flyers, graduation items, and dance posters for
K-12 schools.
I am able to code using languages such as C#, C++, JavaScript, Css, and Bootstrap. I am familiar with common programs in the Adobe Creative Cloud library, Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.
I understand the basic fundamentals of drawing, using charcoal, learning about perspective (double and single point), and figure drawing.
I have a basic understanding of 3d modeling using AutoDesk’s Maya. I am able to create virtual 3D worlds by creating 3D objects, navigating space, lighting, camera techniques, ray trace rendering, and animation.
