punter pub postcard post
Doing some promotional postcard designs for a local gastropub - these based on Victorian packaging designs.
I’ve also designed them a receipt holder - this is postcard-sized and folded in half. The receipt would be stapled inside the little folder which is just the right size to go in a wallet. This design is based on a real bill from a Victorian era coaching house.
I’m quite pleased with these and next up is a website based on these designs as well as some food photography. Love that bit - I get to eat the food after!

new images for the gallery
It’s been a while, but I’ve replaced some images in my gallery with some new ones.

Double exposures
An amusing side effect of using old cameras is that double exposures can happen at any time. Sometimes this can be devastatingly disappointing, but more often reveals interesting effects.
Here are some recent "happy accidents".

Moviestorm beta site launch
Better announced late than never, but a couple of weeks ago I completed work on the new Moviestorm site. This was a complete redesign and overhaul that I designed and managed, and featured a new content management system, new forum software and a full video sharing and community site.

Yay Moo!
I love my Moo cards and I think Moo like them too. Have a look over the right shoulder of Alicia, being interviewed here. Those “moody black and white” cards are mine! Yay!

more card designs
And speaking of alternative card designs, I’ve been enamored of modernist and East German graphic design recently, so did this set for Yellow Horse Productions.
Going all out with the Soviet thing:
And my personal favourite, after pharmaceutical packaging:
card designs
I’ve been concentrating on the day job recently, but have had a few minutes to work on other design projects, in particular business cards. I love to do cards for creative people and companies, because, although branding is important, you can go off on tangents and play around with lots of designs.

designella
Just completed a book design project. For this one, I did the photography, cover design and interior layout.
You can buy it from Lulu now.

stormin’
As Creebies and Yamake draw to a close, I’ve taken on another part-time contract. This one is three days a week at a company called Short Fuze. It’s a local company - just the other side of town - and they develop a product called Moviestorm, a moviemaking software tool that grew out of the Machinima movement. It’s quite interesting and rather a lot of fun. I’m doing a bit of web design, development and various other “stuff” like writing, editing, and organising competitions for their userbase.
Go have a look!
