Found You Feature

I am delighted to have received an email from Steve Rack that he wants to feature mine and Angus's found you project onto his website ILikeCharacters.com. Not until August, which means we have a feature in advance so during the summer this could really help keep things 'out there' and potentially be seen by the right person!

Those are fantastic pics! Thanks for sharing the link. I've just put this in my ILikeCharacters.com folder, and I'd love to feature this on the ILikeCharacters.com site (won't be until August though) if OK with you.

Many thanks.

Steve

End Of Year Show

After speaking with Fred about what to put into the show we spoke about my project DOY the mexican wrestlers as that project shows character in context as well as alternative character series of the product with turns of the project and packaging and promotion. I will only have one vertical board with one horizontal board and table to place portfolio and business cards.

Proposal


I have selected this layout for the proposal, i feel having two vertical panels next to each other allows my illustration to go across both and then that would take you to my portfolio and character prints.



Below are some vector mock ups of the panels that i will be using for the show, i have tried two different layout and feel that the one at the bottom is working stronger.

End of year show

Yesterday i had my tutorial for end of year show and it really helped me figure out what direction i will be taking when it come to displaying my work, i want people to see that i create character and narrative, this is the direction Fred & Lorenzo have advised as it say's more 'Deano' than some of the work i had taken with me, i am really happy with the direction as i was not confident at all about what or how it will look.

Mentioned in the discussion was that i should display my work on the display panels and not the wall, this is something i initial thought m work would work better than on a wall. I could display some of my characters on a horizontal panel and a larger impact print on a vertical panel? Below i have photoshopped some mock ups to hand in to Lynsey and make any changes and to discuss further improvement with both Fred & Lorenzo.
