Logo design for the band Amodus.

Design folio

This part of my blog is to showcase my design skills.

Mantle of the rose. (T-shirt design).








































The needles are meant to represent the paths you would see on the outside of a circle within a design package.

It's amazing the results you can get from a tiny flatbed scanner. When I went to QCA, a girl there did her whole photography folio on top of a color photocopier. It looked so good it made it into Black & White magazine.







































I shot this on top of a pool table with a tiny Canon PowerShot A95. If anyone is wondering, I didn’t write that mind numbing info about the kiwifruit. It was a cut and past effort from an encyclopaedia.

Ambient idea - Cirque Du Soleil

I thought this would be a really effective way to advertise the circus is coming to town.

The people hanging from the poles would be life size cut outs of actual circus performers bolted to the poles. Their photo would be seen on both sides.

Cherry

This is just a simple cherry I made while playing around in illustrator.

Sticks fast

There's so many executions you could do for Super Glue.
I can tell i'm going to keep adding ideas to this post.

Stop the slaughter

FurReal Perky Kitty

Book Sale

This is just a visual idea I had. I can't imagine Dymocks would have a romance book sale.

Lawn Builder

I wanted to go further with this idea but found out this angle has already been done before.

The two other ideas I had for this:

At Wimbledon have a photo of the umpire and that’s all you can see because the grass is so high. Possibly the tennis ball and the crowd in the background
out of focus.

A lineout at a rugby union match. View from the sideline. The shot would be of the person who’s catching the ball with the grass so high you can’t see the other players.

No Doze

TAKES AWAY BED APPEAL

random ideas

I could imagine Doctors having different names for tumours



Don't know where I was going with this. Very silly ambient idea possibly.
