Book Covers

Here are two book covers I did as part of a competitions brief. James and the giant peach and One hundred years of solitude. They were a bit rushed so I'm not completely happy with them, I might even re-edit them and put them on here.





I hope you liked the covers,

Persuasion | howies®

Here is a set of three posters and tree mail shots to go with the campaign I created for a brief in untitled persuasion, I know the head graphic designer that works for howies® so I asked if I was able to use their company in my uni work, they said I could and this is what I came up with for them. This was a hypothetical brief and the campaign was not launched so these pictures don't have anything to do with howies® just some work I did in uni.











I Hope you liked my work!

Competition Brief

We were set a competition brief in uni a week or two ago, which isn't due to be handed in to the client until April sometime, but for uni we had two weeks to produce two outcomes for our lecturers and peers to asses. We were asked to design two book covers for a Puffin book and Penguin Book, the books being Lewis Carroll's 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Patrick Suskind's 'Perfume the story of a murderer'. I know there is a spelling mistake in the authors name and the image desperately needs to be re-done on the 'Perfume' cover, plus the typeography on the 'Alice's adventure in wonderland' cover needs to be completely re-done..! Anyway here is what I came up with within the two weeks we had. I shall update them over the christmas holidays make ammendments to get them all sorted nice and early for the real hand-in in April, but for now you can take a look at my first designs bellow.

First Term Of Uni

The first term of Uni this year is going really well, we were set a brief with the title of SUSTAINABLE ME, we had to produce two group outcomes, one as print outcome and as a website using either Adobe Flash or Dreamweaver, we were also set the task of doing an individual outcome, which we were given the choice to decide what medium we wanted to produce the outcome in. At first I was really interested because we were learning a whole load of things I bet most people never knew about recycling and sustainability. For a while in our groups we were unsure of how exactly how we were going to produce a good solution to the brief, which didn't really help with my motivation towards it.

It's now about six or seven weeks since the brief was set and things are really getting on well despite not 'hitting the nail on the head' and really getting started with both groups for a week or two into the brief, it really has come together very nicely in both my print group and my web group. I am also really enjoying my own individual piece of work. It's good because I really never thought I would get my head around using Adobe Flash, but the website we have constructed which is very near to completion, looks wicked as does the print outcome! There's only days left until the hand in but i can't wait to see our final outcomes...!

Bellow are two screen shot's showing my print and web groups work in progress,




I hope you enjoyed..!
