Name:
Alex Kriechbaum

What does a Graphic Designer do? 

I create all the graphic props that are seen in Shortland Street. All logos, food/drink products, websites, newspapers and signage etc.


How did you find yourself in the job?

I heard about it through a friend and thought it would be an interesting area to get into. So I applied, interviewed and here I am.
 

A typical day involves:

Usually I will get briefed by one of the three Art Directors and then I will start on creating what we need for that week of shooting. Every week is totally different and I am always getting new challenging briefs to work on.

Five months now.


What do you love most about the job?

The variety of work and the amazingly creative people I get to work with!
