Graphic, Web Designer - AD | Italy

Brief Resume
I started drawing when i was children … drawing every day on my sketchbook during school lessons. Sometimes little puppets, sometimes shapes, sometimes only “typographics” works … very simple text on a white pages, sometimes collage of a pictures. I think this is my first design works! When i was a teenager i discovery my first computer: a marvellous Commodore 64. Bored by soccer “cult” videogames, i search new emotions and i found it with my first PC. From here to now the history it’s not so much longer!
I don’t have a “scholastic” background. I’m a self-taught who studied on books, forum, website, portals, chat. Sacrifice, passion, sleeplessness nights, sweat, blood, good music. This is my brief resume. :)



Projects
I’ve closed the works for my last exhibition 4 days ago. At this moment i’m workin’ for IdN issue, and for a personal showreel. Some more projects coming soon! (Visit my portfolio sometimes … )

Inspiration
This is the typically “1.000.000 €” question! It’s impossible to answer …. can i write a “stupid” : Everything ?!?!?!

Thanks Nazario Graziano for having taken his time to make this interview with us

Interview done by Flavio Monteiro for UAILAB

August 2006

I really have a couple of styles of working, my highly rendered work is more influenced by traditional fine art, then theres a more commercial side that is favoured by the editorial, publishing, fashion market.

I got involved with illustration four years ago. I’m self-taught, I have no degree (or anything close to it), nor any professional training.

I try to do whimsical and abstract drawings. I think my style is a mish mash of the ways that effort ends up coming across.

Jake Brewer is a South African designer & illustrator currently based in London.

I graduated in 2007 and I´ve been working with graphic and motion design since then.

I’m 24 years old. I was born in Santos, a small city in the coast of Brazil. I studied Multimidia Design at SENAC.

I took the Advertisement course at a University in Bauru. At my first year I started to understand what it was and to have a giant will to work for a agency.

I started working as a designer in 2005, developing good images, colors and tastes for pornographic market.

llustration, videogames and music, financing my love for beer and concerts working as Interactive Art Director for companies like Grupo W, Televisa, newspapers like Excelsior, and Ogilvy Mexico.
