ABOUT
I am Daxter. I am an enthusiastically optimistic, introspectively-ambivert & multi-disciplinary Portuguese Art Director. I graduated in BA(Hons) Graphic Design at the University of Hertfordshire in 2022.
I aspire to solve problems and design solutions holistically, surrounding myself, sometimes immoderate at fault, with the problem and its context.
Having always been outrageously interested in exploring technology and solving interesting problems, I urge all projects should strive to be as conceptually interesting as possible. I believe Brain-Computer Interface will set the next era for humankind, and Mixed Reality is the next logical step in immersive visual communication.
I am a Portuguese and British Cubs Leader. I have managed three university communities, including their social media, and hosted/organised +50 events.
I have been teaching myself new skills such as how to use Coal, Playing the Guitar, 3D Modelling, Video Editing, HTML5 and C++ coding, to name a few. Such as this website, which was coded and built from scratch by me.
My main design interests are in Art Direction, Motion Design, Branding & Advertising.
Previously worked on briefs set by:
Brand Ethos, Droga5, Foodwave, ReLondon & Turner Duckworth.
