Joao Pedro Canhenha’s Summary

My name is Pedro Canhenha and I'm a Multimedia Designer.
I've been working as an Interactive Designer / Trainer / Art
Director since the year 2000.
I've worked with companies of Web/Multimedia and Design oriented
products. To be more precise, I have worked in design agencies,
training institutes, direct marketing companies and as a freelancer. As a result of that variety I
have amassed considerable knowledge of several crafts (namely
printing, CD-ROM creation, Web Design, programming languages, video
presentations/animations and also DVD creation). The more relevant
examples of my work can be seen in the web site I created for myself
- www.joaopedrocanhenha.com.
Some of the Websites I've designed and programmed have just been featured in the international web design publications "Web Design Index by content vol.3" and "Web Design Index vol.8" for the year 2008. I have also had articles and illustrations published in the international magazine Photoshop PSD. The sites I've designed have also been extensively rated in WebDesign and Design portals throughout the web.
I consider myself a hard-working person and I'm highly motivated for
developing projects in the Design/Web Design/Motion areas.

I also have a reserved site with more work examples that I can display upon request.
