This Piece was for the project was entitled “Ethical Project”. I based the overall project on the World’s Net Trade, the balance of Positive and Negative currencies. This was suppose to give the audience a simple visual graph of the worlds economic statistics for 2009.

These are the three series of Experimental Type posters based around my overall theme of Revolution and How it can be represented in Type. These designs were created in the method of Experimental Letterpress.

After a long grueling summer taking on illustrator from no experience, I’m very proud to bring you Flubba Bandz.

This is a Poster/Flyer for the band IDIOM which are going to release their Video “True Story” on Scuzz.

These are the images for my Final Piece for the Metropolis project that I have based around Pubs. I tried to express Pubs as a High influence on Portsmouth’s history including the publics actions in Pub Houses. So many deals dealt, stories and rumors, and people (famous or not) that had enter these Monumental places to create history to this very day. This was the reason for the series of Postcards.

Here are the new, and fresh from the press Soul Exeter Designs for 2010′s January & February. Please comment all thoughts I would love to hear them for future designs. I will be posting a blog of the history of the Soul Exeter flyers from 2008-2010 soon!

Ryan (Left) & Don (Right) Clark two brothers are the founders of the Graphic Art studio Invisible Creature, Seattle. I best know these two from the band Demon Hunter, which till recently I had made the discovery of Invisible Creature which I can say truly inspired, shocked and motivated me. Being heavy influenced for design by music, and having been a Demon Hunter fan for the past 5 years. I never knew two band members from a band which has inspired me  5 years with music, would have ever added a lot more inspiration and passion towards my Creativity. Also having a huge number of major clients and musicians that I never discovered until 4 weeks ago. I had to check my P.O.D and Foo Fighters albums to be sure. So apart from the shock of the discovery…

… “Why has Invisible Creature really inspired me creatively??” Has I did some research into the Invisible Creature, and having a look into the back catalog of past and present work. I notice that within the Illustration and Design Creativity style remains mysterious, imaginative, and precise throughout. I also find some of the typographic style quite sufficient to the designs, such as the Foo Fighter’s “Echoes Silence Patience & Grace” and Norma Jean’s “O God The Aftermath”. I liked the way some of the text has been scratch out and etched in such a crude and rough style. I also liked the idea behind Hawk Nelson’s album “…is my Friend” by adding a new feature which was the Boardgame. Some thing I had never seen or as unique in any of the albums I had ever brought or seen.

 

 

If this has inspired you in anyway I would suggest researching into Invisible Creature and have a look at their back-catalog. I would just like to thank Ryan & Don clark for being an inspiration to me in so many ways. Whether it’s been Music or Graphics these two are extremely talented, passionate, and foremost uniquely imaginative, Thanks Guys!  There will also be link to Invisible Creature website below. I would also suggest checking out Grain Edit’s website for the Invisible Creature interview (link below), Don Clark revivals all!

This is my final piece for my piece for the first Typography Project for University. This was my first time using the Grid System, and I must say it’s essential for layout. But this piece is suppose to demonstrate my understanding within typography, what I have learnt, and my views for Typography.
