Glow in the dark ink

I want to use glow in the dark ink for my screen-printed Headline poster. This will fit the style perfect and add something extra to my entry to the compettition. Green seems to be the most successful colour that glows in the dark.









50's Horror Posters

for the Headline brief I have chosen to start with the headline "Man found asleep in closet...with corpse!"
This is funny, weird and creepy therefore i plan to stylize the print in the theme of 1950 horror posters. Here's a few i used as inspiration, focusing on the hand generated, bold typography, bright colours, crazy angles and illustrated imagery.

















Christmas cards by Graphic designers.

As my target audience for the Tag: Pac Christmas cards is a highly design experienced one, I'v researched into what seperates a christmas card intended for the general public and a card intended for the design aware. I think more wit and play on words/themes are required to impress the design aware.

Play on words

For the Tag: Pac brief to create a series of Christmas cards, I plan to work with words and how they can be interpreted in different ways. Here are a couple of examples which have two meanings if read with an open mind.


ZombieLand Intro - Typography

The opening titles to the film 'ZombieLand', has some of the best use of animated, interactive typography i have ever seen.

Pixar - Partly Cloudy

A short from Pixar shows some of their best work yet.

Inspiration for the Anorak Magazine cover design competition. I like his bold and simple illustrative work.
