Hi!
This is Jean-Luc Vella
I am an aspiring graphic designer from Ta'Xbiex, Malta. I love to create clean, smart and effective art while still having the capability to listen, understand and implement criticism and ideas into my work.
My passions are illustration and photo manipulation with a strong attention to layout, typography and color.
These assets help me succeed and move forward in my graphic design career. I am passionate about my work and feel comfortable in dynamic and constantly changing environments.
I am capable of keeping quality in my designs while working under pressure.
I am considered to have a very out-going personality and being compatible with most.
I exercise good communication and leadership skills both at work and around friends and family.
​
I also make sure to find balance between working hard and enjoying every bit life has to throw at me. Keeping my mind entertained helps my creativity flourish.
Creative suite
Photoshop
I discovered Photoshop when I was very young and it's what started my interest in digital design. It shaped my path towards this career and led me down a road of art and creativity.
Illustrator
Illustrator was a necessary development to my skills in this digital media career. It opened up opportunities in working with illustrations and drawn designs. It fuels the creative process of my artworks, and has been influencing my work and way of thinking ever since.
After Effects
I began working on After Effects a while after I was comfortable with Photoshop and Illustrator. Moving images are very attractive and having a skill that lets me bring life to my creations is a big plus to my hobbies and my career.
Indesign
Indesign being my least favorite of the bunch is a necessity I couldn't overshadow. With projects like AirMalta's editorial and other pieces, I became very proficient with the software.
Premiere Pro
I was introduced to Premiere Pro while studying creative media production at Mcast University. Although similar to After effects it provides various unique tools that help make a professional production.
Experience Design
I'm the least proficient with Experience Design out of the whole adobe suite. I started learning the software recently as I started becoming more familiar with UX and UI design and application.
