With their usual designer missing in Goa – I hopped (bad joke) at the chance to do the artwork for the next Frogs in Socks EP which is being released on the mighty Fatboy Slims Record Label – South Fried Recordings. On most of the leading music store websites – thumbnails for these sleeves are often smaller than 100 pixels squared so its really important to make sure the information and design is clear in both large and small format. Good luck with the release lads!
CHANGE THE EQUATION – ILLUSTRATION
Like the subject matter it covers I’m completely addicted to the TV series Breaking Bad. Here’s a little something I cooked up in Adobe Illustrator.
VIBRATE – WEBSITE
A single page site that was designed for the guys at Lot49. The brief was simple here’s the text and some photos do your thing. With a healthy balance of images and text things started to take shape quickly but I wasn’t happy with just putting text for a logo at the top, so I did a little something in illustrator. This project took me the best part of a working day to finish. I was really pleased with the results and the response I got from Mark that the page looked “very professional” and that he “loved” the logo.
HIGHGRADE RECRUITMENT – LOGO
Just finished a new logo for Highgrade Recruitment. These guys specialise in teaching jobs, nursery & support jobs for schools, nurseries and colleges throughout the Wales.
NIGHTCLUB & BAR – FLYERS
With each brief completely different from the last its safe to say some of my most creative work has come from designing flyers for clubs and bars. Over the past 8 years I’ve been fortunate enough to work with BBC 1Xtra, S4C, Cardiff Students Union, Vodka Revolution (Regional) & O2 Academy Bristol. The majority of this work has been secured by approaching companies directly or networking with people via various social media sites.
MATT CALLANAN – LOGO
A logo for the very talented Matt Callanan. Make sure you go and check out some of his work, especially his winning video for the Norwegian band Royksopp.
GOTHAM VILLAINS – ILLUSTRATION
With the Dark Knight Rises teaser trailer out this week, it seemed only fitting to do a series of illustrations on some well known Gotham Villains.
CURB – ILLUSTRATION
I was recently bought season one of Curb Your Enthusiasm for my birthday and have been hooked since. Like anything that I become slightly obsessed with I always like to give a bit of a creative high five, or a tip of the cap! Adobe Illustrator was my weapon of choice, 5 hours later here are the fruits of my labour.
DWANGED – WEBSITE
Straight off the back of the Catapult Website I teamed up again with the very talented John Mitchell to create the front end of new website that allows building merchants to sell end of stock products at discounted rates. With the catchy name Dwanged a “Scottish Term” we set to work on a gumtree, ebay style, autotrader style website.
