RESPONSIVE : BRIEF Collaboration - choosing a partner review.

And then there were 3...

We have gained a new member of our group due to un resolvable reasons we have gained David Gaskell. We have pitched him our concept and direction for this project and he is happy with it and is wanting to join, which Lizzie and I decided together would be a good a thing as David is a very creative worker and an amazing researcher. Me and Lizzie have reviewed the original contract and adapted it for our newbie .

Why have you chosen to work with your creative partner? What are your aims?
David's work is very concept driven and he is always able to generate a lot of creative ideas. He also has an interest in advertising and copywriting, which is an interest I share, and he also has a very tongue in cheek sense of humour, similar to me and Suzanne. He also produces strong research and interesting design work.
