The Barry Bar

2010-01-14T11:08:00.000-08:00

The concept was to invent a new chocolate bar. We worked with the Marketing and PR degree students at our uni, I learnt alot about working with 'suits' and communicating with the more business minded side of the industry.
The bar was based around a character called barry who was actually jus a normal person but he genuinly thought that he was a monster (we played on the fact that alot of childrens food is promoted with a monster) So we used that but applied it to older children and by using a real person we wern atronising the kids and instead putting a witty spin onto it, he would be accessible through social networking sites and he would have his own blog so the consumer could interact with the character. we won a prize for most creative idea, which is pretty sweet. Heres some stuff we did...

Creative writing- Jimi Hendrix

2010-01-14T07:23:00.000-08:00

Tried my hand at creative writing in one of my projects, we had to choose a name out of a hat and i got Jimi Hendrix. decided to do an account of and acid trip that he may or may not of had. anyways i hope you enjoy....

The colourful paper hit my tongue. I sat back relaxed and let the acid take its toll on me. The people around me began to slow down and speed up as if controlled by remote. Fast forward, rewind. They slowly began to disappear one by one. I looked to the floor beneath the sticky leather sofa I lay on, and saw the waves of a azure blue sea, it was as clear as the glass of a window cleaners house, the water tempted me in and I dove into the deep mass of blue.
I swam and swam hoping to get somewhere that I’d never been before the water got darker and darker as I swan deeper and deeper. A soft light into the distance flickered and shimmered, my eyes widened and I knew that I had to get there. My swim strokes were fast like a night bird flying. The light didn’t seem to get any closer; the light flickered once more and dwindled into nothingness. I panicked an looked around me, feeling alone and cold I carried on swimming forward into the depths of infinity, my eyes wide open desperately looking for this light.
Like a car driving into a wall at a hundred miles an hour it hit me the light flashed upon my face and my whole body the wind was knocked out of my lungs as I lay there gasping for air I realised I was no longer in the dark abyss, instead I was floating up to the atmosphere watching clouds and castles in the sky, being dispersed by the wind and turning into beautiful women dancing around me in a sort of tribal dance, I touched the top of the atmosphere and looked out to space the vast darkness put my life into perspective and I felt humbled. A mirror floating like a lonely child in crowded room glistened in the light of the stars and moon. I caught my reflection; saw Jimi Hendrix staring back holding a guitar tearing it apart ripping some next level sounds made of gold dust.
The sounds brought me to ecstasy I felt free from my body and my mind the mirror smashed and a hand came from it I grasped the hand tightly and it pulled me nearly ripping my head from my neck travelling at the speed of sound through time and space I hit the floor of the green room, lifted my heavy body up of the floor walked towards the door with my guitar in hand ready for my set.

Ashley wood one of my favorite artist/illustrators. 'Ashley Wood is an internationally acclaimed, commercial illustrator, concept designer and comic book artist.' my particular favorites of his work are the robots. There is a certain vintage style to his futuristic robots.

SPACE Brief ZAG

2009-02-06T07:26:00.000-08:00

We were given a live brief by an ad agency called ZAG which is a sister company to BBH, They deal with Branding and looking at gaps in the market. Heres a video i did showing how we explored space, we attached a camera to a load of helium balloons, we did a journey of two budding astronaughts trying to get to space, also we looked into fashion aswell. this was all part of our creative process, which helped us come up with ideas a brand, and a product to show to ZAG.

songs: lets go fly a kite- mary poppins, When i grow up- scroobius pip.

City without ads?

2008-12-11T11:33:00.000-08:00

Sao Paulo last year the Right wing mayor decided to ban all ad shells and billboards and pretty much any form of advertising as he felt it was visual pollution. heres the article. Its really interesting to look at the pictures of a city with no adverts and just empty billboards. Below is the sky advert showing that they have no adverts inbetween thier films, good choice of song aswell.. very clever. Done by Ad agency WCRS http://www.wcrs.com/

Tilt shift photography

2008-12-11T11:28:00.000-08:00

This is when you take picture and make it look like everything in it is a little model it looks really cool and you can use it in lots of things. i tried a few myself and its really simple if you've got photoshop and a good picture. Heres one i did of a rugby match. you can find the tutorial on http://www.tiltshiftphotography.net/

some fun online games.

2008-12-11T11:24:00.001-08:00

Heres a website that a couple of guys back at college found its called orisinal and there a bunch of time killing games on there. The colours are really bright and friendly and it kinda goes away from the violent type of games and relaxes and kinda makes you go awww.

Museum visits

2008-12-08T09:19:00.001-08:00

A day out to london we first went to the V&A and saw the cold war exhibition, which was very good i must say alot of graphical inspiration to be had. Then we went to the royal college of surgeons, which was also very good there was lots of dead stuff moulded in formaldehyde the second picture is the ateries of a baby (not real) but its really interesting how it kinda looks like a web or a map. It was very interesting to see how everything work in different animals and human bodies. we then went to the british museum where we saw this huge head sleeping. i'm not sure what it was called, but it looked cool.

halloween was ages ago but hey what the hell.

2008-12-08T08:59:00.001-08:00

We dressed up as glow in the dark space aliens using glow sticks. it didn't look great in the light but in the dark looked awsome. We did a few long exposure photos aswell.

Random video brief.

2008-12-08T08:54:00.000-08:00

Stuff i saw at uni the other day

2008-12-02T15:40:00.000-08:00

New Sony Bravia advert? haha, looks wicked cool though. Then we looked round to the multi storey car park and saw some guys from our class putting this banner out looked awsome! luckily they got out before security got there.
