Lyndarn Harrison is an Art Director at Anomaly London, an advertising company that works with global brands. Lyndarn completed our Foundation Diploma in Art and Design and went on to graduate from BA (Hons) Creative Advertising (now BA (Hons) Marketing Communications) in 2016.

Since then, Lyndarn has worked across brands such as RIMOWA, Bvlgari, Heinz, Carling, and Cancer Research UK, and with talent such as Anne Hathaway, Zendaya, Lewis Hamilton, Kyian Mbappé and Paolo Sorrentino. Lyndarn is a visiting professional at Leeds Arts University and a D&AD Pencil Winner.

"I'm an introvert. Before Leeds Arts University, the idea of presenting anything to anyone terrified me. Now I present things every single day; forming and delivering emotive narratives that sell in work. It's probably the most important skill you can have in advertising, and it's one I probably wouldn't have without the course. Nick and Fabio constantly pushed us to present our work every week, and in hindsight, this was invaluable industry experience."

Lyndarn's most recent work is RIMOWA's 'Engineered For Life' campaign. Lyndarn made a film which feels like a production line itself, and it communicates the idea that once a RIMOWA leaves the factory, it is perfectly engineered and assembled by hand, but is not finished, and that the product continues to evolve with each journey, dent, and scratch it picks up along the way. Lyndarn is currently working on an extension of the campaign by creating a range of still-life print advertisements which will be going in publications across the world.

On the right is a silver metal train carriage travelling on a platform with a person stood in front of the carriage with a silver RIMOWA suitcase. On the left side, there is half of a silver RIMOWA case that aligns with the silver train carriage on the right. Next to it reads "RIMOWA, Engineered For Life".

"On top of all the tutoring and facilities the University had to offer, I was fortunate enough to be taken to D&AD New Blood festival by the course, where I was then invited to present myself and my work in 5 minutes. That presentation changed my life, landing me my first job in advertising, and a move to London where I've been ever since."
