Gershwin Rayfield Whittles

My name is Gershwin Whittles; I am a simple gentleman with a keenness for life 
and an eagerness to learn.
I enjoy working with people, both on a one-on-one basis or a group environment. I 
do however comprehend that not all work is continuously exciting and that there is 
a fair amount of mundane work that is required in order to operate at optional levels. 
It is my well-balanced approach to life that enables me to work effectively and 
efficiently, not cracking under pressure, but doing my best to deliver on time and on 
point.
I also have a very creative spark which I express through communicating whilst 
generating ideas. I love to learn as much as I can about each task I get and how I can 
improve my performances as I do take a genuine interest in my job. I am good with 
instructions and ask questions if I do not understand, but where needed, I am 
resourceful and I use my initiative to resolve unfamiliar situations.
There is so much more that I need to learn….but what I know, I harness it into my 
intense work ethic as I apply myself constantly and received constructive criticism 
well.
Lastly on a lighter side, I am a tranquil person whom enjoys solitude, listening to 
music with the breeze of outdoor adventure.

Creating content for people (personally or professionally) as a freelancer gives me a broader understanding of the culture and traditions. The great thing about the work that I do I tend to learn more and more about my clients through designing, as every design has a story behind it. 

I've recently completed my studies in Houston, Texas studying Motion Graphics and Visual Effects which included the following:

• Adobe Photoshop 
• Adobe Illustration 
• Adobe After Effects 
• Adobe Premier Pro
