V-ONE DESIGN SOLUTIONS LIMITED - Key Persons
Chris' favourite project would always be working on a logotype - though, in recent months, he's showing he's equally talented in working with film, either editing or creating amazing animations. Outside work, he's a drummer (the quiet ones always are!) and he creates his own lino prints. He also owns a classic Mini Cooper! He just wishes he drove it more (can't handle the bumps anymore). Chris shares his birthday with Marilyn Monroe, Morgan Freeman, Jason Donovan and Ronnie Wood and, we're told, is Superman!
For George, the best aspect in design is in seeing the finished outcome in situ! He's an all-rounder with a preference for infographics. He owns several classic Apple Macs, which are currently waiting to be upcycled into lamps or clocks, which is one of his hobbies - amongst collecting vintage toys (80s, Star Wars, Thundercats, Transformers, Lego), vinyl records and tackling DIY projects. Since the age of 5 he'd always wanted a daughter named ‘Kira', after a character from the film Dark Crystal, and his dream finally came true in 2021!
Jodie is a great all-rounder and can turn her hand to most aspects of graphic design. She's highly creative and has a quirky, creative style that comes through in her work. She's a keen Tae Kwon Do -er but can't really undertake this at home as she lives on a boat! But water's not the only thing she takes to as she's previously flown a plane!
Lyn balances the books, chases the money and pays the wages. Away from work, she's a home maker with a keen interest in interior design and you'll always find her shopping for bargains. She loves to cook on a grand scale for her large extended family where she is the heartbeat. In a past life, she was the mortuary manager at two large hospitals in Hertfordshire!
Mark has 35 years' experience as a graphic designer but now takes a more Creative Directorial role within the company. Away from the office he likes cooking, gardening and flying his drone. He's a David Bowie fan (collecting vinyl LPs) and is an avid collector of Elvis Presley concerts!
Meet Fran, a versatile designer who has worked across a variety of global brands, creating work from digital to print, social to video, campaigns to events… and everything in-between.
