Liquorice Park (Book 2)

2010-04-08T16:08:00.020+01:00

This book came as a follow-up to a previous project about Liquorice Park in Lincoln. The text and images have been separated to create a clearer and more cohesive read. At A4 format for the photography section and A5 for the text, the book aims to bring the matter of deforestation to the readers attention.

Fred Perry Subculture

2010-04-04T22:31:00.020+01:00

To advertise the Subculture part of Fred Perry's website, a viral campaign inviting people to send in examples of photography showing two parallel lines in any environment. This represents the two stripe theme within the Fred Perry brand, whilst tracking the lives and journeys of the people involved in the subculture. Once submitted to the website, the logo is added to the artwork and selected examples are distributed as A6 postcards at Fred Perry sponsored gigs and events. On the reverse of the postcards are instructions of how anyone can get involved with the project, causing a constant re-generation of the advertisement and campaign.

Lloyds TSB (2012 Olympic Partners)

A campaign to advertise the partnership between Lloyds TSB and the London 2012 Olympics. Lloyds TSB advertises local sporting venues to customers to highlight the sporting connection and get people involved in the build-up to the Olympics, regardless of their location.

Metro Dog is here to represent all things Metro, highlighting the companionship formed between Urbanites and their newspaper on tedious, everyday journeys.

Caught Red Banded

2010-02-11T20:59:00.011Z

My entry for this years Roses brief (Band) encouraging postmen to stop dropping red rubber bands on Britain's streets. The idea allows the public to voice their opinion by using a set of printed envelopes and stamps, ensuring that postmen have little choice but to take notice. When the envelope is opened, a red circle is torn, providing a literal response to the campaign 'Break The Chain'. The envelopes would be available at A5 and A4 formats, with a mixed set of stamps as company.

Shuffle Magazine (Issue 01)

2010-02-01T15:26:00.008Z

Shuffle is a new and exciting lifestyle magazine that focuses on fashion, music, art and design. This first issue is the start of a CMYK trend that will continue in future issues. At just under A4 format, the vinyl cut Shuffle logo is accompanied by a belly-band that is an invert of the image used for the contents page. With a variety of appropriate stock used throughout the magazine, the main article in this issue is a 6 spread photographic study, taking a look at the fashion trend of 'the Mods'.

Album Artwork

2010-01-18T00:29:00.012Z

I chose to re-design the 'Sound Of Silver' album cover by LCD Soundsystem as part of the 'Becks - ReImagine' project. Designed at 12" x 12", I enjoyed realising the project, as I expected to after reading the brief. This also led me to design the album cover for the self-titled album for new band 'Milk'.

Despair in the Departure Lounge

2009-12-07T12:13:00.015Z

As a big fan of the Arctic Monkeys, I decided to produce a mapping project tracking the tours of the band since their formation in 2003. With an increase in mileage came an increase in status, shown through info-graphics in an A5 booklet, folding out in to a timeline accompanied by 3 x A2 posters.

Liquorice Park (Book 1)

2009-12-02T00:02:00.013Z

Liquorce Park is Lincoln's last natural site in an otherwise urban environment. The ISTD brief 'True Stories, True Geographies' asked me to take a true story and place it typographically in to a relative environment. I formed an alphabet from potatoes and used them to print relative facts and figures on to the side of trees throughout the park, using Rhode Condensed. Accompanying other forms of interaction throughout the park, the typography narrated the story of deforestation and the impact it is having on the world.

2009-05-21T19:46:00.005+01:00

D&AD Window Display - Mission Impossible?

2009-03-28T00:11:00.002Z

With a very open brief and a big empty window to fill came the birth of a paper robot being viewed by a lot of CCTV cameras whilst abseiling towards a particularly precious yellow pencil.

Night Pong

2008-12-07T23:16:00.004Z

Encouraging more people to play Ping Pong, the idea of playing at night adds a new element to the traditional game. With some glow in the dark paint, a grotty kitchen table and some low-light photography I tried to bring this new aspect of the sport to life. I also designed the 'ping-pong' themed typeface accompanying the images.
