      I receive complex ideas and information and communicate them by drawing simple, but effective illustrations which is mainly targeted toward semi-literate people. This usually involves a briefing from my creative director. We receive a script from the writing department and then "scamp" (also known as "thumbnailing") the script into a visual art form. This is typically communicated in either a comic page format or a poster. I have also done Storyboards for Animation.
