About me
Art Director across Bauer Media's portfolio of Men's and Lifestyle titles (Empire, FHM, Zoo, Q, Mojo & Kerrang). I work across print, digital and tablet media, creating commercial work for a diverse range of clients from Sony, Fox and Heineken to Ellesse, Matalan and Fish Grooming. I'm an ideas person working closely with sales team and editorial to produce the most interesting and relevant content for Bauer's unique audience.
Projects
  • Matalan Tuesday Shoesday
    Matalan Tuesday ShoesdayMatalan had a regular property within Grazia, Tuesday Shoesday. To push this platform further the shoes from the commercial content were photographed as 360's. This was then designed as a responsive page allowing the readers of the magazine to quickly see the whole shoe, read about the different styles and click to buy.
  • X-Men: Days of Future Past
    X-Men: Days of Future PastTo celebrate the release of the X-Men: Days of Future Past DVD and Blu-Ray launch I designed an 8 page feature. This was an oral history of how the past and future era's were realised and an anatomy of the Quicksilver scene. To better put these era's in context I designed an Empire cover from 1973 and from from 2023.
  • Sony Hi-Res Audio
    Sony Hi-Res AudioSony came to Q Magazine to help them promote their new Hi-Res audio range. To appeal to the music afficionado we set up an environment that this new range would be appreciated and brought it to life in the magazine. As part of this process we also gave the products to Q and Mojo journalists to get an insiders view on these new range, did it live up to the hype and promises? To further amplify this campaign Sony partnered with Moby to really tell the story of Hi-Res audio range. Flying out to LA we met Moby and shot him in a studio on Sunset Boulevard telling us why sound quality is important. We then followed him around parts of LA showing us his inspiration and how the Hi-Res walkman can allow all of us to experience superior quality sound.
