Visual communication to make your mission matter /////// Design, illustration & animation for purpose-driven brands
About
Bonjour. That is me - John Davison - Syrup Founder. I may have a wonky face but I have won a couple of BAFTAs, a Webby award some Lovie Awards and a few others besides. You can see some of the clients I’ve worked with below too.
What I do:
Ideas for impact
Art Direction
Brand / identity design
Illustration
Animation (inc. scripting & storyboarding)
Who I do it for:
I make nice things that make a difference for NGOs, charities, change-maker businesses and values-led brands.
I specialise in using communication design to make an impact to health causes. From mental health, drug harm reduction and illness support, to self-development and work cultures, to the health of the planet and it’s climate.
I also provide a branding service called goodweird
I’m also fascinated by what makes for an enjoyable collaborative creative process. What I’ve found works best is:
Lots of listening on my part; understanding the wider context in your world.
Loads of top-heavy collaboration and co-creation. If we get the first phase right, it’s usually plain sailing from there.
Why does good energy matter? In my experience, it results in the best creative output and makes the biggest difference to your organisation and your audience. Let’s make something good.
