Robert Dolgaard

Robert Dolgaard – Designer

Co-creator focusing on interior book design. Created interiors for Vincent D' Onofrio & Avatar 2:Way of the Water, to name few.

Overview

Well at Cameron+Company, my abilities to push design boundaries outside the box were utilized by the Creative Director again and again and again. This allowed me to explore and develop interior concepts to gather the necessary feedback from the clients to effectively reach their desired outcomes.


Working side by side with editorial departments taught me about consistency throughout, using text as a means to effectively guide the reader through the pages. I learned to set my artistic views aside and use the client's content to effectively convey the final feel of the project.


Upon launching a book product, one can expect to have an meeting with all involved to begin an open dialogue to gain a greater understanding of the book's desired outcomes. Concepts will then be created, showing examples of styling and formatting of what the interior pages might look like. Once the client has approved the concept, the work begins in building out the first pass at the interiors.

Rob was SO helpful and did an amazing job on my book. As a first time publisher, I was a bit lost on formatting and how to get my book ready for print. I'm so glad I chose Rob as he made the process so easy, had lots of communication and made some suggestions that added great character to my work. I plan on hopefully working with him for my upcoming projects and highly recommend him!!! Thanks Rob!
