Dick Hanna’s Summary

I have been doing business as an independent designer under the name Studio One Design since 1992. Prior to that I was an art director for several years at one of the top 20 advertising agencies in the Denver metro area. My clients range from non-profit associations such as the Financial Planning Association and the Colorado Oil & Gas Association to business-to-business clients in a variety of industries, book publishers, and cultural institutions such as the Denver Museum of Nature & Science, as well as contract work for a variety of different ad agencies, design studios and in-house art departments. I have experience in print and web design projects ranging from product/service brochures and catalogs, advertising design, direct mail campaigns, corporate/product identity and trade show graphics, newsletter and publication design & production and book cover design to web site/interface design, html e-mail and Flash banner ads.

My goal is always to develop long term relationships as a reliable graphic design resource and problem solver. While I am currently looking to develop a new long term relationship with an additional client or two I am also interested in a part time or full time position with the right firm.
