Hello

I’m Andrew, my friends call me Box. I’m a creative.
Welcome to The Box Creative.

I am a creative director with a passion for storytelling either in film or print for successful brands and campaigns. I have over 30 years’ experience working in these areas, this could be creating a stills photographic shoot to film creative or art directing and designing a magazine or book. I bring enthusiasm, experience and general happiness to all projects.

I have been the creative over various global PR and Marketing communications for luxury brands such as, Aston Martin, Rado watches, Lotus, Jaguar Land Rover, Lamborghini, Ford, Ferrari and Bentley. I oversee the design and post production through to delivery.

I’m a great collaborator without an ego and have through my years mentored designers from junior level through to art directors and creative directors and seen them flourish.

I have many interests, mainly sport, anything with a ball, especially rugby. Watching too many films and boxsets in my spare time. I do have a budding enthusiasm to cook in the sun, wind, rain or hail on the bbq and I’ve been told to stop buying recipe books as there is no more room. I’m a fond fan of podcasts.

Some interesting things about me, I have issues with bridges and I once starred in a BBC drama and maybe I can explain over a coffee why I’m called Box.
