I’ll never forget the day,
dear client,
when you and I
discussed the brief.
When we —
on our third double lattés
for the morning —
locked our wild eyes
and I asked,
half expecting I already knew
what you were going to say:
Is what you’re after
the ordinary?
You want a brand that looks
nice?
Website copy that
does the job?
You want the same
watered-down drivel that’s
everywhere in this industry?
You want the logo bigger?
You want to toy with SEO
rather than working out
what the hell you want to say to the world?
And you looked me dead in
the eyes, dear client,
and said:
No, Jem.
Hell fucking no.
But enough reminiscing.
Let’s create something dope.
I’m Jem Page, a Brand Consultant, Writer, and Freelance Creative Director.
Since 2007, I’ve been working with companies of all shapes and sizes, offering unique ideas and lucid expression across brand design, concept development, voice positioning, print and digital design, and long and short-form copy projects.
I’ve worked variously as a Creative Director, Senior Designer, and Senior Copywriter in a number of wonderful agencies and studios. At the same time, I’ve honed design, research and writing skills through academic study, completing a Diploma of Design, a BA with majors in Writing and Philosophy, a Master of Creative Writing, a Master of Research (English), and a PhD at the intersections of poetry, music and philosophy.
This academic background and broad set of interests colour my distinctively interdisciplinary approach to branding, content and design.
