Tourism

We were asked to develop a concept driven Tourist Board campaign for Scotland. I came up with the idea of equations showing you your Perfect Day in Scotland (the sub-heading of the brief). I think they are fun, simple and would translate well in Eastern European countries. I see them placed on tubes, buses and trams. Quick glance or a short journey, you will think about them again.

Mag Project

By far one of my most successful and well received projects has been my Magazine/Editorial project. I chose to create a mag that would be a source of inspiration to me and others like me...design-orientated tattoo freaks!


Front cover 1...the strongest

Cover 2...1st issue




Spread one...
























Spread two...
























I thoroughly enjoyed this project, I created the spreads completely by hand, I wanted it to be scrapbooky- in a professional way, adding pieces to the images and illustrations and taping things down. I strived to stay away from David Carson-esque grundge, dirt and grime.

a little bit creepy yet so inviting, warm, childlike and pleasing to the eye that I can't get enough of her twisted world. On her site she only has limited works but she is well published in Communication Arts and other French mags. I look forward to seeing more.

Nice quote I heard today from Chris Arnold

My Song






This is a project I enjoyed a lot this year, I am mad about the Mamma's and the Papa's, have been my whole life and this song reminds me of my wee Gran so much. We had to connect with the song and relate to it. I think I became very literal but as she is not with us any more I found it relevant to get her down to a tea!



We were also given the chance to create this into a short film. I love stop motion and so far this is a little sketchy but would like to perfect it one day!
