A poster that I designed for a few people who are leaving where I work and heading to Oz. The “big bad” bit is a bit of an in joke. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out when it was a bit of a last minute thing.
A promotional/information flyer that I created for the music department at Dundalk IT. Though it went through a fair few revisions and tweaks, I’m happy enough with how it turned out. It’s a double sided A4 page that’s folded in 3 sections.

Below are some images that I designed for a book I made last year. The book’s content was to cover some of the designers that we studied in the theory aspect of the module. The style I used was supposed to emulate the syle of the original artist and I think I’ve achieved that.
A college project that I did for a “Digital Visualisation and Design” module in college. I decided to take a photo of my grandfather made up using lots of things that reminded me of him. I asked my mother questions about him like past employment and what he liked to do in his free time.
I’ve made a new wallpaper for myself in photoshop. Unfortunately it’s only currently available in 1280 x 800.
Feel free to download and use it yourself and as always, criticism and critique are welcomed.

This is a DVD like menu from an end of year project. The Project will be made in Director and will have my Flash Animation, My Short Film, images and whatever else I can cram into the extras section.
On another note, the Toy Project that I’m currently working on is nearing completion. The Toy project is a challenge to combine a childs toy and a keyboard to creative and interesting effect. I’ve just about finished the wiring of the electronics which took A LOT longer than originally planned. A full report on what exactly I had to do will be up over at the group’s blog www.seabasshunterproject.wordpress.com for those interested.
Toodles for now

I got a Graphics Tablet for Christmas and I’ve hardly used it which is a sin. So, I broke it out today and for no other reason than because I wanted to, I painted Barack Obama using Photoshop. Just remember that it’s pretty much the first time I used the tablet. It was pretty fun to do. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do next?
Today I completed a project that isn’t due until Friday the 20th of February. This project was to design and create a Film Production Company Logo. On our first day of this semester, our lecturer made us all come up with our own Film Production Company name. Later, the names were shared and swapped throughout the class and, in essence, everyone became someone elses client.
I was chosen to design and conceptualise a logo for someone who’s Production Company was called “TakeTwo”. Firstly, I had to come up with an idea and this was achieved my quickly sketching some basic ideas with pencil and paper. After about 20 some jumped out at me as being pretty good and then I felt that I should draw them out in greater detail just to show them in a better light.
I showed these drawings to my client and she chose here favourite one which, coincidentally, was mine too. I then drew this up on Adobe Illustrator. I did some little tweaks that I thought would improve it even more at this stage.

It was at this stage that I added the film reel cut-outs to tie it in with the Film Production Company. I also made the “PRODUCTIONS” type a little smaller than “TAKE TWO” as there was no need for it to be as prominant.
Tada! All done. I’m pretty happy with it.
However, I’m not all done there. We then had to make a Compimentary Slip, Business card and Headed Paper. All of which, can be seen below.

Any comments are greatly appreciated. Creative Critisism is also welcomed. Thanks.
Yeah…. sure…. “awesomeness” is a real word. I swear!
Anywho, my friend and coincidentally, my housemate is a member of a band called “OneEar” (listen to “Monster” on their bebo or “She Drives Me Wild”), who are were in need of a poster to stick around the place to promote their gigs.
I happily complied and with the promise of 2 bars of chocolate as payment, I was well happy with my first paid job.
The resulting design is below and I’m pretty happy with it. Any comments?
OneEar – Poster Of Awesomeness.

The poster has been updated to the final version. The old one is still available HERE if you want to compare.
