A freelance creative business owned and managed by Chris Jones, based in North East England, offering a wide range of creative services tailored to suit clients across many sectors, including start-ups and SMEs to national and international organisations. Whether you're building a brand from scratch or enhancing an existing one, I bring hands-on expertise and a collaborative approach to every project.
I’ve worked in the design, advertising and web development sector for over 30 years, employed by award-winning agencies including Yellow M, Robson Brown, and Different. With a growing list of freelance clients, I launched Clockwork Design & New Media in 2003, offering strong, effective creative solutions, produced on time and within budget. The business has steadily grown through interesting projects, enjoyable work, and most importantly, long-term relationships with satisfied clients.
I specialise in design and artwork for print, web design and development, illustration, and video editing and production for social media. This website provides a collection of recent projects across each of these areas. If you like the work and would like to discuss your next project, feel free to get in touch using the contact details at the bottom of each page. I hope you enjoy exploring the site.
As a start-up business, I understand that budgets can be limited and your investment must deliver value. With that in mind, I offer tailored packages for start-ups that may include logo design, business cards, website design and development, as well as promotional print materials and social media graphics. If you let me know your budget, we can explore the most effective options to meet your needs. First impressions are vital and I will ensure your brand is presented with professionalism and impact.
For small to medium-sized enterprises looking to strengthen and target their marketing efforts, I can provide strategic support to help you achieve your goals. From advertising to targeted email campaigns, I work collaboratively with you to promote your business effectively and drive engagement.
Over the past thirty years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with a wide range of national and international clients. This experience includes collaborating with marketing directors, managers, and in-house teams on targeted campaigns, where I’ve delivered visual solutions that compliment established brand identities across print and digital media.
Every business has its own unique market, goals, and challenges. I take the time to understand what makes your brand distinct and offer creative, strategic design support to help you make a strong impact. I’m always happy to share ideas and insights to help you get the best possible results.
I’ve had the privilege of working with a range of UK public sector organisations and educational academies, including the NHS, Newcastle City Council, and Newcastle University. These collaborations have involved everything from developing complete brand identities for new departments and initiatives, to designing targeted campaign materials that communicate clearly and effectively with diverse audiences.
My work often includes creating brand guidelines that empower in-house teams to maintain consistency across future projects—ensuring the brand remains strong and recognisable over time. Whether it's through print, digital design, web development, or social media assets, I focus on delivering creative solutions that are not only visually engaging but also practical and accessible.
