Five Thousand Miles

It is finished. FIVE THOUSAND MILES: One girl’s adventures in Japan. April, 2014.

By it I, of course, mean my Japan travel journal website. All 18 pages – 17 for the 17 days and one introduction, pictured above, that provides links to each of the days and their locations. It has taken quite some time to put together, as I had 4000+ photographs to get through, so I imagine it will take quite some time (although not as long) to look through as well.

If you don’t have time, or can’t be bothered right now, to look through all 17 days…
I recommend these particular days:
Day 4: Tokyo
Day 9: Takayama
Day 10: Matsumoto
Day 13: Kyoto

However, I hope you’ll have time to at least skim through. Enjoy!

ReVox Sessions in the flesh

I received my copy of Peter Parker’s Rock n Roll Club’s ReVox Sessions a couple of weeks ago but I’ve been so busy that I haven’t had time to photograph (and actually take the record out of it’s wrapping) until today – Bank Holiday and all.

The painting on the front is by the band’s drummer, Sakura Mori.

I design records

Yes, that’s right, it is now plural!

Check The EP out on Behance for more photos. Or my website.

Squares

I was looking into redesigning my website using Wordpress or perhaps getting a Behance Pro Site but both of these things cost money and so for now I’ve just slightly improved on what I already had. Mainly by adding square thumbnail images to the home page, which certainly brightens it up. I have also re-arranged and re-ordered my projects into categories – such as editorial design and illustration.

FXU Awards

The FXU Awards are back in March this year and I have been working on a few promotional bits for it. Although I did the majority of it over the Christmas break, I have only just updated my website with the designs.

I strongly suggest that, if you have the power to vote (as in, if you are a current Fal/Exeter student), you vote for Sea Swimming for best sports club… and best society. And everything else.

FXU Facts campaign

Take a little wander over to my newly updated website to have a look at my latest project for FXU, a “Facts” campaign. You can also check out the UGM posters I designed for FXU fairly recently as well.

Behance

I decided to set up a Behance portfolio last night, just as another platform to display my work on really. It's not going to have as much on as my website, that would be silly, but I think the six projects that are there at the moment would give an idea of what I do.

So take a look, “appreciate” and “follow” – I'm still learning how to use the site!

Computer Arts’ Inspiration Gallery

I've only tweeted Computer Arts twice to try to get my work into their Inspiration Gallery and it seems the second tweet paid off. A spread from my Tall Tales & Short Stories book appeared in yesterday's gallery amongst some other great work – yay.

Tall Tales & Short Stories

It might have taken the best part of this evening but I have updated my website with my major project, Tall Tales & Short Stories, and it is definitely the largest project I have ever produced. Currently I am very pleased with it all… but ask me again in three months time.

"Tall Tales & Short Stories is a fictional exhibition to take place at the British Library. The exhibition aims to encourage its viewers to rekindle their imaginative side, something that may have been lost in adulthood, through the idea of myth At first focusing on British myths, including those familiar to all and  stories much lesser known, the exhibition and accompanying book explore what a "myth" is, how they are formed and just why they are important to us."

Have a look at the project in full: here.

Chuck Ragan Facts Book in photographs

I've finally taken some photographs of the Chuck Ragan Facts book that I designed a couple of months ago. My wooden desk makes for a brilliant backdrop.

Check out my website for a little more about the book and more photographs.

Cornwall Film Festival

I've updated my website with my proposal for a re-design/re-fresh of Cornwall Film Festival. I've also added a page for my major project, Tall Tales & Short Stories, but that's only got a description of the project on it for now! Go look!

Let's do business

Today 250 professionally printed business cards arrived for me. I went for a simple design but the important thing is that it matches my website/portfolio/CV and the contact details are there. I didn't want something overly clever or gimicky – sorry, that's not me.

As you can see, I'm not keen on the whole internet having my mobile number, just yet. If you want it/need it you can ask for it. Otherwise, send me an email. :)

Grimm's Fairy Tales

I posted some work-in-progress screenshots and such for this project on my blog a while ago. But seeing as the design is now complete and on my website, it is time to share again.

View the project and read more about it on my website.

Revival Café

So, I did some work for a café in Bristol back in September – re-designing their menu. I have finally got around to photographing the physical menu myself, thus updated my website.

WEBSITE!
