Marie Campbell’s Summary
My professional experience balances the structure of being an inhouse designer for WCC, with the satisfaction and rewards of founding my own design agency, Début.
I'm passionate about design and the arts scene in general. As a side project, Début launched www.creativewolverhampton.co.uk in 2006 to raise Wolverhampton's creative profile, and to support and promote creatives living and working in the city.
Please visit the 'My Company' link to learn more about Début or CW, and the 'My Website' link to view my portfolio, personal projects and find out more about me.
Marie Campbell’s Specialties:
My role within Début concentrates mainly on editorial design and illustration, also working with the team on branding projects, screen-based design and the production of print-based promotional material.
The key to Début's success is the complementary skills of the team. Our combined skills base includes marketing & branding expertise, design for screen & web design, illustration and print-based & editorial design as a specialist field.
