Projects

The Old Loom ShopCreating all the branding and materials for Derbyshire based textile studio "The Old Loom Shop'. The branding needed to look modern and versatile, standing out on a range on mediums. I also wanted to retain the hand made feel to the company through the designs of the materials.
Feel Good at the MoviesA brand campaign for Feel Good Drinks Co. The brief was to increase sales and awareness in new markets. The idea was to break into the cinema market by featuring a new draft product. The advertising campaign parodied movies and the design was bright and colourful.
Welcome to Matlock BathTo create a hypothetical advertising campaign for ‘Matlock Bath Zombie Hunting’, encouraging people to visit and partake. Unlike most ‘horror zombie’ related design, this needed to appeal to a wide audience as being adventurous but also perfectly safe and convenient as a tourist attraction.

Work history

Junior Designer

Jul 2014

I contribute substantially to the progress and development of our whole range of titles published in house, as well as having the chance to work on the design and branding of external client projects that are booked into our studio. Client liaising is an important aspect to my job as I deal with a lot of the external projects in our studio. Working as part of a team is also something I am used to, as is having strict deadlines to meet under pressure without ever compromising results.
