Brad Brooks’s Summary

• designer for print with over ten years experience, designed everything from logos to books, but I'm happy to tackle anything.
• Web designer for over seven years, specialising in html, css, javascript, php and cms. I put a particular emphasis on creating standards compliant websites. I can also design using flash, but I'd really recommend against it.
• I've also designed environmental graphics (signing, wayfinding) and exhibitions (the 50th anniversary Peanuts exhibition in London was a favourite of mine).
• I'm a published author, with expertise in writing about comics, Apple, graphic design and technology. I've written for a number of UK and US magazines, and I'm the co-author of two books on comics.
• I've also been a publisher and editor for a small house publishing comics in two languages.
