Darran Solan: Creative Director | Associate Creative Director | Art Director
I’ve always been in the creative industries - graduating from university with a BA in fine art painting and illustration, and after finding my inner Picasso, I was selected for the legendary Watford College ad course.
Here I honed my art direction and strategic creative thinking before placements at Dye Holloway Murray, JWT, RYCR/Y&R and a first job at McCann London for 3 years. I then held a permanent residency in the halls of VCCP for 8 years, working on global brands such as Cadbury, O2, EasyJet, More Th>n, KIA, Coors Light, Lynx, Shell and Cono Sur wines. After, I joined Kindred Group as the Lead Senior Creative to work across their 12 gaming brands including Unibet, 32Red and Vlad Cazino.
As an Associate Creative Director I worked at Haygarth on their portfolio of brands, creating global launches, before currently working as a Freelance CD // ACD // Art Director
I have over 15 years integrated creative & art direction experience in TV, Print, Online film, Website, OOH, DOOH, Experiential & Social campaigns. I am also experienced in Adobe CS: Photoshop/ Illustrator/ InDesign
