Uni Semester One Magazine Project.
Brief: to create a magazine using one of the chosen '#' themes (I chose #Handmade) that reflected the skills you've learnt. Put together on InDesign, using skills from Illustrator, Photoshop and gum printing.
Chocolate Orange
Towards the end of my first Uni semester, we had the opportunity to design our own Terry's Chocolate Orange packaging. I created an illustrated orange segment pattern for my design. Thanks to PCL Digital for printing the design.

Sugar it is!
A2 Graphics coursework project.
The idea behind this was to 'Make a Difference' in terms of health advertising and the particularly current issue of sugar tax. Initial experiments began with research into the development, adaptation and the morals behind advertising through time - most of this research focuses on the tobacco and cigarette industry. This was accompanied with a visit to the Brand and Packaging museum, London. This concept of the development of health advertising was used in a accompanying essay 'A comparative study into past and present advertising'; where I compared these past examples with modern campaigns such as Change4Life.
With high focus on Sugar Tax and Jamie Oliver's recent work to get this recognised. I developed a campaign that highlighted some of the important facts about sugary/ fizzy drinks. This was styled in a very graphics and gruesome way. In this project the graphics were created from an initial series of photoshoots - which I also had a go at creating this graphic cut and skin irritation - then transferred into Adobe Illustrator, where I self taught myself this illustrative block shape way of developing a face or object. To add to the brand/ campaign identity, I used the hazard symbolism to develop a logo and focusing on Coca Cola, a individual hazard symbol for each type of Coca Cola. In addition, I designed a landing page for the campaign which outlined the key aims.
Market
A2 Alevel Fine Art.
The concept for a brown paper market bags came from the overall theme of 'Environment'. Each bag was inspired by a different stall of a market. The handmade appearance of the bags reflects the atmosphere of a market. The overall purpose of the bags was the celebrate the traditions of a market, at a time where they aren't as important to the majority of society anymore.
Frustration
I linked this AS Graphic Design project to Parkinson's Awareness because of a close family connection to the disease. Through exploring and researching Parkinson's, including a questionnaire, my project aim was to educate in the form of a poster campaign. I wanted to allow people to understand what it's like to have Parkinson's through associating it with a difficulty that everyone might experience - reading a London Underground map. The tube lines also have a close link to brain function and neurons. I chose 'Frustration' because of a questionnaire response, but also because it is a less stereotypical aspect of the disease - most people just consider the hand shaking element.
As well as exploring the NHS advertising posters, I also linked the campaign to Parkinson's Awareness Week as the recognition of awareness was a key message I wanted to put across in my work. This project not only allowed me to create and design a piece of work, I also developed a deeper understanding into Parkinson's Disease myself.
Mist Perfume
Alevel Media Coursework.
A series of sophisticated perfume adverts. The styling reflects on vintage perfume campaigns, such as Chanel.
Transformation - Cadbury's
My AS Graphics exam title was Transformation and for the project I chose to re-design the packaging for Cadbury's. In doing this I selected colours, flavours and chose a design that was more suitable for an older demographic.
Applying my media studies knowledge and research into colour psychology, I began exploring the use of colour and its meaning - eventually I chose to use a more 'muted' purple shade, therefore still with close association to Cadbury's, the colours for each flavour also reflected that. I also researched current chocolate bar packaging, and ended up creating a wrap around packaging style with gold foil.
