Ethan Read

I like to say that I am a creative generalist and are willing to have a go at anything. My process usually involves a physical production process that will lead to pieces of motion, editorial, print and experience-based outcomes. The variation in this practice is what I enjoy most and something I would like to keep up after graduation. I want to create work that starts a conversation, gets an audience to interact with the design in a personal aspect and to be proactive with the information.
