WORK HISTORY
Designer @Redblu Graphics & Displays
Cambuslang, GB
At Redblu we specialise in creating graphic solutions within the print and display industries. I provide graphic design and branding services for clients across all forms of print, manage production workflow and scheduling as well as work on Redblu\'s brand development, advertising and promotion to new and existing customers.We are working hard to deliver a complete service and trying to think of the best new ways to help customers get exactly the solution they want on a case by case basis. Much of the work that we do is in bespoke promotional display which keeps the projects that we do wide-ranging and engaging.I oversee all of the creative output at Redblu. This includes artworking and graphic design, pre-press checking, creation of concept documents and visualisations for exhibition stands and other products.I also advise customers regarding the best solution for their requirements from a creative perspective, and help with artwork templates or tips on file preparation.Being right at the point which artwork goes from digital to physical form, I am able to be very hands-on and understand the intricacies of our products and systems.

SKILLS
ABOUT ROB NELSON
I\'m a creative, forward thinking multi-disciplinary designer, specialising in exhibition design, display solutions and large format print. I have an in-depth understanding of the exhibition and display industry, and the unique challenges involved in creating designs for these applications. I\'m well versed in a wide variety systems and products, and the print and production technologies available, allowing me to make the most of the unique benefits offered by different solutions for customers.I\'m constantly excited and motivated by the technology available to designers in my field. I\'m keen to see how on-the-go idea capturing and design programs on phones, tablets and laptops help the creative industries evolve. I regularly find new uses for 3D visualisation and rendering software in my workflow, visualising exhibition stands, retail displays or scale-dependent product detailing. Print technology has come so far in such a short time as well, with excellent quality fabric printing, textured wallcoverings materials and numerous specialist films and substrates for architectural and decorative applications all adding to a designer\'s arsenal. Finally, the amazing possibilities afforded by fabrication technologies mean that we can factor in 3D printed, CNC routered and laser cut elements, amongst other things, into designs to create ever more engaging experiences for customers.As well as overseeing our own internal design capabilities, a large part of my role at Redblu involves advising creative agencies and designers who are supplying artwork for production. Designing for physical structures and three dimensional spaces provides its own set of challenges, and I am keen to share my knowledge and experiences to help others wherever possible.I\'m always looking to connect with like-minded designers, start-up businesses looking for help and advice, and anyone else who is interested in progressive design solutions!
