August Sander - possible final choice

Here is a popular choice amongst my colleagues. The background photos included were provided by the client and were better quality than the ones I was experimenting with. So as to not disrupt the imagery too much, the logos and event details, except the main details, are all collected at the bottom.

Olympic torch relay in Oadby!

A preliminary photo (while I was still editing) was posted to my Twitter feed. Now, the editing if finished!

The relay was a a big success, so many people came together to celebrate. It was amazing!

Recycling ad campaign designs

 The recycling ad campaign was originally focusing on the style found in Soviet propaganda and the likes, however, it has changed so as to focus less on the 'power' element of said propaganda, and more on 'unity'.

The original sketch by Keiron Edwards, drawn after a discussion and development of my original idea.

Early design in Photoshop, which utilises a custom 'Russian'-style font. However, this font can get a bit difficult to read, and 'F' appears like 'R' for some reason.

The current version, which includes different coloured arms, to show multiculturalism (unity amongst all races and cultures in Leicester).

 

August Sander exhibition ad

Currently, I am collaborating with a group on a design for the August Sander exhibition, presented by Artist Rooms; it's on tour and this ad is for the New Walk museum section of said tour.

Below is the current design, which has had the required house style applied (though not refined, e.g. the measurements for everything haven't been implemented yet).

The image is a mosaic of August Sander, made up of different (portrait) photographs he took.

Queen's Diamond Jubilee party at Ellis Park in Oadby

On Monday I was commissioned to photography the Diamond Jubilee part at Ellis Park in Oadby. The event itself proved popular with upwards of 500 people over the course the 3 hours, and I was able to get many a good photograph. Yesterday, I narrowed it down to 96 photographs, which will be the final selection.

My work at the class' end of year exhibition

This is a photo of my work mounted at the exhibition. The ordering of the work into pairs helped with the overall look of the art (for example, the two central scannographs have black backgrounds and thus resemble the others less).

Overall, I'm proud of my work and it is great seeing it in an exhibition. If you haven't already seen it, the exhibition is open for two weeks, so check it out (see details in last post)!

Scannographs at Fabrika exhibition

My scannographs are on display at Fabrika from the 29th May until the 9th June! They are a part of a class exhibition, and thus there is great variety in different styles of photography explored. Check it out!
