End Child Poverty





My old project for my graded unit was to create a campaign to end child poverty around the world. This is a serious issue as children do not hae the power to save themselves. For an effective communication I decided to use the imagery of broken toys to represent children who have been emotionally broken.

A week of romance
  





A week of romance at waterstone. Originally this was supposed to be for Borders but we were prompted to change it due to Borders closing down.... Anyway this project was one of my favourites when I attended college. It was to advertise a week of romance and create a booklet for several novels. I wanted to put a supernatural spin on it targeting teen romance involving werewolves and supernatural music. Have a look!


Kinetic Typography

 

Another project was to practise Kinetic typography in a creative way. It's very Amateur at the moment and definitely leaves room for improvement! I chose lyrics from the song 'Human', by Ellie Goulding.
Have a look




Labuat


Labuat is an interactive site that allows the user to move their mouse and paint a moving picture along with the song playing. It's impressive and quite innovative as it puts a personal spin on it allowing the user to feel more involved. Check it out at

Logo #2
As a Uni project I was asked to design a Logo for my own TV channel. I chose the name 'Ardent' as it represented passion and energy!. Naturally the colour red was chosen and the letter 'A' was replaced with a triangle with a simplified white flame within it. In most cultures the triangle actually represents fire.


Logo


I offered to design a logo for a friend who does photography as he was using the typeface Impact as his 'brand'. I personally found this horrible to look at as Impact only belongs on Irn-bru bottles...
A nice script font and a simple graphic makes it elegant but keeps it modern/edgy to suit the guys personality.


Comic Sans
Simply because every Graphic Designer 'Loves' comic sans!



Instagram
Here is a few photographs from my Instagram!
The quality isn't great as they were shot with my iPhone but the filters 
definitely add to the visuals.


Welcome

Hello! And welcome to my little blog 
I decided to start this to showcase some sketches or design that interests me.
Here is a little taste of a sketch I done a couple of nights ago!
