I was briefed by Lindiwe Suttle to create a new poster for an upcoming gig she was doing with Meri Kenaz. She explained to me that it was a Rock n Soul meets Folk n Soul gig, and that she wanted to see contrast in the poster. So i decided try an illustration route here as opposed to a photographic route, using the guitars to represent the to performers. There was alot of back and forth on this but think we got something good in the end.
I have always loved skateboarding, and always wanted to do a skateboard series. So when Adrian Day told me he had an idea incorporating some old skateboarding toys he had, i jumped at the opportunity, we got together and shot these toys on an infinity curve, and Adrian broke out his copy writing skills, the result was 3 boards commenting on a corporate worlds abduction of skateboarding along with some awesome examples of "engrish", all too small to be read from the picture. So here they are:
Pink Board: Best in begin starter to USA Championship. Blue Board: Making politely best american roller skating since many years. Orange Board: For action of best health and successful.
Unfortunately the boards never went further than our computers, but we had a good laugh doing them anyway.... maybe next time.
I got a call the other day to the branding for and events company by the name of Rock n Roll events. I have been really enjoying playing around with a vintage look and feel, so i decided o take that route here. Above is a business card design for the company.
This one was for Brewers & Union again. This time to advertise a series of music acts which would be playing at the bar over a few weeks. Again taking beer and music as the main themes (99 bottles of beer on the wall) i came up with this... Hope you like it.
Brad over at &UNION asked me to come up with a logo / identity for the Real Beer Initiative which is a collaborative effort between Jack Black Beer and Brewers & Union. So after much discussion and trying different roots we went for something obvious but right. So paying homage to Milton Glaser we developed the "WE LOVE REAL BEER" logo. We printed T-Shirts as well, available in white and black.
