design my life

I deisgned this poster based on 2 words drawn from a hat, "whispering, crow" it first sounded like a name of a Red Indian but after researching further I gained inspiration from "30 days of night" poster. I designed and created the font myself based on the other poster.

What is it about this advert? It came out around 2002/03 and from the moment I saw it I knew thats what I want to do! After researching other honda adverts it led me to Wieden+Kennedy, an international advertising company who worked on some of the biggest campaigns of modern time; Nike 'just do it', Coke a cola 'coke side of life', Honda 'cog', the list goes on! I don't know what drew me to the ad but its just so different, eye catching and poetic, who wouldn't love it?

.........I love typography, this was the 1st brief we were given in year 1 and one of my final pieces was used in an exhibition. 'Use type to illustrate a sentence'. I really enjoyed the brief and want to use type a lot more in the future.

The heaviest sport in the world is elephant polo, more humans ON elephants playing polo but using play along words I came up with this design which was made into a screenprint.

during college I was given a live project to create a set of gift cards for the beauty salon for christmas, they wanted contemporary design so I created these simple designs based on xmas objects with simple pastel colours, the cards were very well received and I ended up getting paid which wasn't necessary!
