  Creative Art Director

  As the head of the Graphic Design Team at the Strategic Planning and Performance Department within the Hail Region Municipality, I oversee a team dedicated to delivering comprehensive design and media services across multiple departments. Our core mission is to enhance communication, support strategic initiatives, and visually elevate the department outputs, aligning them with modern standards and the municipality’s strategic vision.Our team specializes in a variety of services tailored to meet departmental needs: 1. Brand Development: We design and update brand identities that reflect the municipality’s values and aspirations. For instance, we recently redesigned the logo for the municipality using a modern color palette and legible typography to make it more relatable and accessible to the community. 2. Presentations and Reports: We ensure that strategic documents are visually appealing and easy to understand. A recent project involved creating a presentation for the annual performance review, where we incorporated data visualizations and clean layouts to make the information engaging and accessible to a wide audience, including government officials and stakeholders. 3. Publications and Magazines: We design layouts and graphics for various publications, such as the department’s quarterly magazine. This includes conceptualizing covers, crafting article designs, and implementing consistent brand themes across each issue, ensuring the content aligns with the agency’s standards and is visually appealing. 4. Video Editing and Motion Graphics: For events and announcements, our team produces promotional videos and animations. For example, we recently created a motion graphic for a community development project, using visual storytelling to explain the project’s goals and impacts on the local community.Through these services, we support each department’s communication needs, helping them connect effectively with both internal teams and the broader public.
