T-shirts |

Today we discussed what we'd be wearing for the show. I came up with the idea of having same coloured t-shirts, or possibly getting prints done on them. however after getting some quotes for printing we realised we couldn't afford it. It was just over £50 for printing + tshirt cost. So nearly £80 for enough t-shirts for everyone!

Work Submitted | pt1

I chose this piece to be printed for the show. Its my favourite piece of illustration work that could be printed at A1 without pixelating. 

Here was the other choice which I'd have much preferred to be in the show, alas it was too small to be blown up onto an A1 poster. 

Work submitted | Final

I’ve submitted two movs and two pieces of print to be considered for the show.

Here they are.

I chose the snow globe piece because it shows my illustration skills and commitment. I’m not that happy with how it looks on paper because i feel the detail has been lost a bit, which is why i’ve submitted a second poster as well.

The Newquay poster is a collaboration between my photography and typographical skills. I’m really happy with the fonts i’ve paired together.

I’ve included my motion graphics piece that I created in answer to the YCN brief. I am most proud of this piece. It again encompasses both my camera ability and software skills. I also spent a fair amount of time putting together the audio for it. It’s the best piece of work I’ve made so far for this degree.

Selfie | Portfolio

The top image is prepared for upload to my portfolio. The lower one is the original. I shot both of these using my 500d and a desk lamp held in front of my face. I'm pretty happy with how they turned out but I would have rather shot with more light.
