Wish me luck.
Applied for a job today :)
covering letter with CV, along with a set of postcards of my work.  


Hellooo new logo!

So I was just messing around on photoshop with my logo, there was just something about my old one that I didn't quite like. Anyways I knew the 'ole handwriting type is in "trend" so I thought it was due an update to keep up with it all. I also intend on sending this design off to make it into a stamp! 

I actually really like this new logo, not to sound too big headed, but I think it works.

This project is by far my favourite!

This has by far been my favourite project this year! 
Following the Joanna Yeates murder trial (Oct 11) I created a visual timeline of events. I used imagery collected myself from newspapers and the internet.  The project title was "Error". I used Screen printing to print my images onto material, a technique that produces beautiful natural errors. Reading the Joanna Yeates murder trial in various newspapers I found that the story was twisted and different in each paper. Readers want something they can trust and rely on, these natural errors are an element of authenticity. 

Authenticity creates trust.

Graze

This morning my housemate had a Graze nibble box delivered. Its a box of healthy snacks including nuts, cheese, crackers, flapjacks, dried fruits etc. I fell in love with the packaging. Even though the whole concept is eco-friendly with its recyclable packaging Graze have made it witty and attractive.

Friends with Benefits (End Credits)



I love the playful interactivity with the end credits of this film! I usually hate end credits and turn off as soon as I see them! But this certainly had my attention!

I worked in Tenerife last may with the AWF, whilst there I was working on some design work for the organisation. Along with Dan (student from Coventry University) we designed the AWF Induction Pack for Tenerife. The Induction pack is now finally online on the AWF website for interested potential volunteers to download! 


The AWF Volunteers Induction pack for Tenerife is now available to download from http://www.whalenation.org/whalesanddolphinsproject.html
