college exhibition

After three days of cleaning, painting, and
lugging 30 four-by-eight boards up a flight
of stairs the room still looked like a mess.
There was only one way to solve this, and
that was to put some work up.




A nice view of how some of the stuff looked once up.
(mines on the right)





A closer view.




The large paintings were displayed behind a card
window frame that also contained the title and
caption underneath.




The smaller paintings were displayed as prints.
These were printed onto vintage paper to represent
how these adverts would have aged by 2050.

Oh and finally (hold on let me grab a party popper and
a glass of bubbly) some people actually looked at my
work, hooray!

Four A2 paintings

All images have been painted using acrylic on paper.



A super large ship designed to take short-cuts across
land, it can even carry smaller vessels on board.




A sky bridge held up by giant Zeppelins over a city.
Designed to speed up the flow of traffic; to, past and
from the city with many connection links.




A car with legs, designed for space exploration it is
able to jump over many large creators on any alien
surface.




A train that can go any where, being able to lay its
own track as it goes. Using the Roman idea for moving
large objects with logs that are moved from the behind
to in front of the object. This also borrows the idea from
the Wallace and Gromit toy train chase.

three small and landscape

Horizontal take off, using the Earth's surface to aim the
rocket upwards while building maximum thrust along
the ground.




Getting a helping hand. A super sonic jet can be
towed part way around the world from passing
satellites.




Finished painting of the ash jet idea mentioned earlier.

two small and portrait

These are the only portrait images
that are used within my FMP and
they are also the only two to show
humans, I guess working in
landscape worked best for me in this
project.

This image shows how a water cooler
can easily become a water rocket
jet pack. These images are design to
be placed within an advert space
inside books or newspapers.




This image shows us the shoes of the
future. Shoes that can do the walking
for you and pretty much allow you
to go any where.
These images will include captions
when printed as an advert.

Ash? No problem

This is an early idea that I had for the project,
trying to combine objects to create an solution for
small problems. Here a gas mask is fitted to the engines
and cockpit allowing the plan to breath while it flies
through the ash of "that volcano" (the one with the
really long name). This was also a test for using
Photoshop as a colouring method.
Yes I know that I've located the ash in the wrong place. bit more south-
east should do it.

pallets in space

Random experiment using the remains of my
pallet, it was utterly cluttered.
I guess the Planet Earth is a bit like that.

retro flying car

A sketch of a retro car flying around London.
This image is a test for the kind of style that I might
like to use for my project, a painted illustration,
I like the fact that the car stands out from the
background, being the only current colour on the page.
The picture might look too busy if the background is
also painted with acrylic, so maybe it would be better
washed with faint water colour or to be developed more
with pencil and maybe pen sketching.

E4 promo

Hand drawn animation that promotes e4's Monday night movies

this animations plays on the theme of guilty pleasures and uses

the idea of 'while the cat's away, the mice will play'.

(music by Adam Haynes)

This animation has had a few version through development

looking at different music styles to match the content from

quirky piano to rather silly up beat keyboard rhythms, maybe

the music needs to be more commercial to appeal to the target

audience, but I quite like a few wrong notes here 'n' there.

The animation has also looked at the use of colour to link it to

the e4 brand, which uses purple as its signature, so this next

video is a 5 second sting that shows what the colour change

might look like.

back to basics web page

This web page layout (above) is designed to look like a
scribble done in a sketch book (and it pretty much is)
but is able to function quite neatly as an interactive object.
The sketch takes advantage of the on-line medium by
allowing it to become animated, mixing the traditional
with the new.




This was the first first version of my web page but it
was over complicating the design which featured an
animated robot that presented the links. The layout
had little structure and the page was quite dark.




This was an early page I designed for a business
project that created package designs. I liked the
simple appearance it had and it inspired the 'box of
bits' layout (at the top).

Eric

This guy knows how to play.
A quick sketch and a quick splash of
colour thanks to photoshop, with the
texture left over from the scan it gives
quite a nice end result that represents
a loud performance. Grand.

SLR illustration

Painting of a camera to represent my interest in
taking the odd snap here 'n' there.
An image to use as part of my self promotion project
entitled 'tools of the trade'.
