Bob Cram

 

What about Bob?
So, hey. How’s it going? Just in case we haven't met – my name’s Bob. I got it second hand from my dad, and it's worked out well for a while now. There was once a petition drive going to rename one of the Northwest Territories Bob. I love those wacky Canadians.

I'm a creative but practical individual whose primary work motivations involve making a connection with whatever target audience I'm directed toward and doing something interesting, creative and fun while I'm at it.

Work History
For the past 3+ years I worked for the Via Group as a Web Developer and Production Designer. During that time I've also done a fair amount of freelance illustration, graphic design, video editing and copy writing. (Not to mention played WAY too many games of Halo.)

Before that I worked as an editor, an actor, a comic book artist, a graphic designer, a programming tutor, a comic shop manager and lots of other, less interesting things. Somewhere in there I graduated with honors and a degree in Media Studies from USM.

Currently I'm a full time freelancer working in illustration, web development, writing and graphic design.
