Graphic Designer

Suki Hubbard

UK

After leaving Art school with a degree in Graphic Design, I started work in traditional animation for commercials ie: Tetley Tea, Smarties and video productions for BBC. I was also a contributor on 'Bob's Birthday' (Snowden Fine Productions) which won an Oscar in 1993 for Best Animated Short.
In 1995, I started work for Discovery Channel as a print designer for their monthly subscribers magazine. When it was decided that the magazine should go online in the States, I moved to CondeNast and started work designing sites for the launch of their publications online including Vogue, GQ, Tatler and CondeNast Traveller.
Since then I have worked in print and online for a huge variety of organisations. From Christies Auction House to BT, Unilever, Marks and Spencers, Foreign and Commonwealth Office, Department of Health and ITV.
I enjoy Freelancing because I get work from a variety of sources and can keep control of projects so that they are delivered on time and to the clients satisfaction.
