Damian Donnelly, Ad_Man Creative Marketing

damian donnelly, ad_man creative marketing

Hello there – I’m Damian Donnelly, Principal at Ad_Man Digital Marketing, a marketing consultancy based in lovely Belfast. I’m an award-winning advertising, marketing, digital marketing and social media consultant, trainer, mentor and speaker with some 30+ years’ experience (hey, I started very young!). During this time, I’ve worked with everybody from senior government officials and marketing managers for international brands, to owners of start-ups and micro-businesses… and everybody in between. And there are few marketing and communications challenges I haven’t seen and helped provide solutions for over the years. I’ve been told many times that I’m really good at getting to the heart of a problem to unlock the insights from which practical, measurable, and sustainable difference-making solutions can be developed. Perhaps most important of all, I can help you enjoy your business! I’ve been described as a “breath of fresh air” and the quality of my work and thinking has been referred to as “addictive”. And some reassurance bits... I hold a Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) Diploma in Digital Marketing. I'm an Enterprise Northern Ireland Premier Adviser. I was NI Regional Winner for the National Examination Board in Supervisory Management Certificate. I'm an associate tutor and trainer for Belfast Academy of Marketing, delivering training and workshops on copywriting, search engine optimisation (SEO), digital marketing planning, content marketing, social media, and web and social media analytics. I'm a Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM) approved tutor. I'm an InterTradeIreland approved digital marketing consultant.

Adobe Certified Expert & Instructor | BA | MSc I have over 15 years of working experience in Design, Photography and Media, allowing me to maintain a wide variety of skills that assist in supporting students, professionals and enthusiasts involved in the Creative industries. Currently, I'm freelancing and teaching MSc Design at the University of Edinburgh. Since I started teaching in 2013, I have taught other educators, art directors, creative professionals but also students of all ages (5 to 75!) and abilities, including individuals with learning and behavioural difficulties. Moreover, I have delivered bespoke Adobe creative training for clients such as the BBC, SKY, WWF, NHS, ILGA, Roche, The National Gallery and several Universities and Colleges. Since 2015 I've continuously been one of the very few Adobe Certified Instructors and Experts. Because of my comprehensive knowledge of the Adobe software and digital media theory, I received a series of certifications from Adobe, such as Educator Specialist in Visual and Video Design, Digital Imaging and Digital Creativity Expert for classrooms, Expert in Digital Media and Creativity Training and Adobe Education Trainer, accrediting me to train other educators. I have achieved an MSc in Design and Digital Media (with distinction) from the University of Edinburgh, where I chose to work with 3D, Motion Graphics, VFX, UI/UX, Video Game Design and AR/VR. I specialised in VR experiences made with Unreal Engine and particle systems. I have also achieved a 1:1 BA (Hons) focused on Photography and Audiovisual Arts, where I had the opportunity to experiment with different forms of visual and digital art whilst specialising in Architecture Photography and Image Editing. Moreover, I hold a Digital Photography certificate from the University of Harvard. My latest experience is focused on delivering lessons and lectures in Digital Media and Visual Arts as well as my freelance projects. Above all, I have successfully employed a motivational approach when teaching and found that this led to many positive student outcomes, such as developing their creative thinking. A key part of my career is helping students reach their full potential, which I work towards by focusing on creative and critical thinking when teaching.
