Why this shape

A single-column resume with your photo as a two-colour strip down the left edge of the page. The strip prints the photo in apricot and indigo on the first page and stays plain indigo on later pages. Your name runs in bold capitals on two lines, followed by your role, two contact lines and numbered section titles such as “01 Profile”. The design fixes the strip: you can add, replace or switch off the photo, and with it off the strip is plain indigo.

Best for

  • Creative directors, art directors and photographers
  • Senior creative applications read by a founder, recruiter or agency

Show what you led and what you made

Give each role your title, the agency, studio or brand, the city and the dates, then the work you directed and the work you made yourself. Name brands and campaigns only when the work is public and you held the role you describe. Put one portfolio or reel link with your contact details and check that it opens.

What this layout asks of a machine

  • PhotoMany US and UK employers’ ATS and recruiters ignore or discard photos. Our ATS checker flags images, and flags a photo where local hiring convention discourages one. The photo is optional, so leave it out for those applications.
  • Skill graphicsSkill bars, charts and icons are graphics. An ATS cannot read the level or meaning they show, only the text beside them. Our ATS checker flags graphics for this reason.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I send Eclipse instead of a plain resume?

Eclipse is for a reader holding the PDF: a founder, an agency head or an executive recruiter, particularly in European countries where a CV photo is customary. Recruiting systems behind a careers page, and most roles in the US, UK, Canada and Australia, should get the plain ATS PDF from the download menu.

Why does my photo look different in the strip?

Eclipse prints the photo in two colours, apricot and indigo, so colour and fine detail are simplified. Choose a portrait with clear contrast and a plain background. The finish, the strip’s place and its size are fixed.
