As a freelancer, over the years I've studied and taken clients to work on logos, branding, advertising, and motion design.
It's an accumulative experience and I generally cater to what the client needs and discuss with them on what could work best.

Roles

Art Director

I had two roles in this Job.
In the first year I was an art director and helped out with multiple campaigns on Petronas/Petrosains. To summarize, I'd have to think of ideas, stories and visualize print/web layouts for campaigns.

Later on I was introduced to the role of copywriter and worked on accounts like Maggi and Maxis; I'd still have to think of ideas and stories, but I'd have to think about writing scripts rather than focus on the visuals.

Reason of resign

Moving overseas for almost a year for future plans.
