Filmface is a promotional campaign to encourage young people to look at film

in a fun and different way. A way that avoids piracy laws telling them off and

shoving scary information in their faces. I created the idea of Filmface to enable

people to capture their “film face” which is basically their facial reaction to the

current film they are watching. People can then upload and rate the numerous

faces online with friends. Along with various competitions such as “face of the

week” and “guess the filmface”, the campaign idea could become addictive

and very fun!

The main idea is to get young people to have fun with film more and respect legal

ways of acquiring media. Various methods of easy and legal ways to acquire

and stream film are mentioned on the website of Filmface.

Graphic Design (Visual Communication)


This is a sample of work I have produced in my final term at Derby University. I enjoy working with logo design, branding and advertising. I feel my strengths include the use of illustrator, and eye for detail and a desire to progress and grow as a designer through experience and learning.

OCD ‘it’s a way of life not a choice’

The brief was to show rituals and human behaviours. My main objective was to communicate the different areas of OCD and the reasons behind why suffers have these compulsive disorders.

l created a publication that reflected the strict routines of people with OCD as well as providing simple and clear information about different areas of the disorder. l also created a website linking in with my OCD publication. The websites loading screen interacted with the viewer as well as reflecting the disorder in a clear and simple manner. By having an interactive loading page this set my website apart from existing OCD websites. As well as this l created a tag line ‘it’s a way of life not a choice’ as l felt it related well to the project and how people with OCD see the compulsive disorder.

I wanted to create a body of work inspired by the text Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky. I wanted to capture the mood and themes from the book. I used collographs as my main method of generating work.

David Broom (Graphic Design)

I’ve chosen a brief that sums up the kind of design I like to do.

Brief

(work experience).
Create a portable cabin wrap and Play&Play logos for the National Water Sports Centre in Nottingham.

Solution
I used the ampersand as water flowing below the name of the sport to bring all the elements together.

I went very vector based for the wrap as I felt this complimented the logo’s.

Kasia Niezywinska

I have chosen illustrations from my latest project, which dealt with difficult issue of losing a parent.  I believe that children should be brought up in a loving and understanding environment that allows them to develop individual judgment and sense of moral and social responsibility. These hardly can be fulfilled without books, which are frank and honest as well as true to life, books that explore and challenge different even the most difficult subjects.

I have chosen a selection of work that I feel represents me as an illustrator.

“Wild London”- a poster for the AOI, Serco & London Transport Museum Illustration competition. The brief was to design a poster that positively showed a hidden side to London. This design was shortlisted to the top 50 and will be exhibited in the London Transport Museum, Covent Garden in November 2012.
“Crow” - a double page spread from a children’s book I made for a university project. This work has been submitted to Macmillan Children’s Book Awards. See website for more info.
“Tribe”- a double page spread from my final degree project. The aim was to create an engaging book for children that focused on Zulu culture. 

You can find my work and portfolio in the illustration area.

Matthew King- The Kennedy Conspiracy

Brief

The Kennedy Conspiracy focuses on the conspiracy theories of the JFK assassination. The challenge was to research the vast amount of conspiracy theories and explore them in a visually exciting way to encourage the viewer to read into the subject in more depth.

Solution

The core concept concentrates on the secrecy and distortion of the truth surrounding the official story. The newspaper aims to portray this with visual manipulation and typographic experimentation and a simple colour palette echoing the era with the red to symbolise the violence of the event.

My independent project dealt with British superstitions. The inspiration for my project came from my superstitious best friend, who can often be found jumping over cracks in pavements and saying hello to magpies. 

I produced an illustrated book which collates some of my most favourite superstitions, some well known, some more unusual, and a few which made me smile!

Brief:
To design the exhibition branding for ‘Quirkology: The Curious Science of Everyday Lives,’ held at The Science Museum, London.

Solution:
Concept of the branding posed bold, quirky thoughts, which reflected the book’s content. This branding was then placed into reality to literally bring it into the science of everyday life. Quirky, right?
