Mark Herring’s Summary

I’m creative, conceptual, integrated, imaginative, fast, flexible and honest.

I’ve written ads for TV, cinema and radio as well as plenty of press. Then there are all the web sites and online campaigns. Promotional films for DVD, websites and events. Football and business journalism. Tons – literally - of POS, DM and brochures (the chances are you’ve ‘recycled’ something I’ve worked on). Brand guidelines. Film reviews. Pitch work. Editing, planning content, ensuring compliance.

In fact, it’s been quite a day.

A few of the companies I’ve worked for, or on, or with:

BlackBerry, Tesco, Goldfish, Lloyds TSB, Arsenal, Pot Noodle, 3M, Felix (the cheeky rascal), Barclays, Electronic Arts, Renault, Citigroup, Foster’s, Mercedes, Sheraton, Canon, Warner, Costa, Eurostar, Nokia, HSBC, Vodafone, Sony AND Sainsbury’s. Oh – and the Arab Business Report.

Right now I am:

- Working with the Global Creative Director at G2 on the global repositioning of an iconic brand: advertising, video and animation scripts and editing, new product launch campaigns and new ways of communicating to both external and internal markets as the range of touch points diminish.
- Writing the website for a New York based Flash and animation agency.
- Helping to build the brand of a new Asset Management company - primarily through social media.
