My name is Yannick Da Veiga. I am a one-man design studio focusing on brand identity. I help you define your needs and guide you through the whole branding process: from the initial creative spark to the final deliverables. My work is concept-driven: everything I do is there for a reason. I try to build my work on strong visual ideas to solve your problems and make your brand shine! I love stylish typography, clean grids and quirky illustrations. I often try to mix all these ingredients in my projects.
I work and live near Rennes, France with my partner, our two daughters and our lazy cat.
Experience
I have more than 15 years of experience in the communication industry, both working in creative agencies and as a freelancer. I began my career in London, working for the entertainment (20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures, Lionsgate...) and video game (Sony PlayStation Europe) industries. I also spent 5 years in a Parisian agency where I worked for more corporate structures such as Orange, Air France, BNP Paribas or Microsoft. As a freelancer, I work for clients of all sizes: from small local businesses to big international corporations. Most importantly, I treat all my clients with the same involvement and attention to detail.
Process
I always work in close collaboration with you, the client. I embark you on the creative process from the beginning, it goes a little like this:
Design brief
You provide me with a clear and detailed design brief along with your budget. If your needs are not clearly defined at this point, I can help you establish your strategy and list what your business really needs.
Creative benchmark
I collect a number of graphic inspirations that fit your project. I also have a look at what your competitors do. I gather all these references in an argued presentation for us to discuss. We agree on which directions we're going to explore.
Research
Depending on your budget, I work on several graphic concepts. My ideas are explained in an argued presentation, so you can understand my thought process.
Finalisation
You choose which graphic concept you prefer. I polish this idea until you're fully satisfied with the result.
Declination
I decline the elements you need on all communication mediums: print, web, social media...
If this sounds good to you, feel free to give me a shout for your next project!
