Corporate Identity
The subject i choose for my corporate was a smoothie drink as soon i thought of it i knew it would be lots of fun as it open your mind to many ideas. Smoothie are very fruity and colour full which was great to work with so I choose the name ‘Mix-Up’ because of the fruits that get mixed up all together to create the smoothie. I wanted the logo to be loud and to attract the potential customer and I think I portrayed this vision and message very well across the stationery design also.
Advertising
For my brief we could choose to design anything we wanted in any style or format. So as I loved advertising I choose to advertise a festival, which in this case was Reading festival. I choose to advertising different artist and experimenting with typography to get different styles with this one element.Also I created the tickets, Logo’s and wristbands all sticking to the same style all through out so they could be easily uniformed.
Illustration
Illustration brief was to create a book based on a well-known nursery rhyme or fairly tale. I choose 3 blind mice, as this had been my favorite since I was little. As you see on this page I have my front and back page then my first inside page and then the double page spread and on the other page is the rest of the book.
The way I created this book, for the background I used a big dry brush with acrylic paint to get a textured painting college of different colours and then just sketch out the characters and applying them onto of the background to still get the background to come through and not to be completely hidden. To finish the whole thing of I placed them into Photoshop to shade.
Advertising
The Brief for this project was to advertise a certain subject and I choose Bullying. For my posters I wanted to create a shocking image that will stand out and be quite touching to some people and also to touch the bullies to make them think also. I used different element to show anger and emotion LIKE 3D words, lines, tears, and just the pure emotion in the persons faces will communicate the message as a whole.
YouTube
Graphic Design for me isn’t just a job its also my hobby as in my spare time I love to teach people and because I’ve learnt a lot of skills through Photoshop, I then teach my skills through video. I create tutorials for example the Kim kardashian picture I posted a video on how to create a burn effect on Photoshop. The other picture is of videos that are just like quick art and I take peoples faces and manipulate them into anything or anyone. I’ve created around 30 videos and it gives me great pride to teach other people.

Q&AWith the prducer of Marvel - Jimmy Richards
SPIDER MAN 6With new picture’s and a secret insight behind the scenes!
In a development that will shock few, Wolverine added another notch to his belt by handily
defeating Spider-Man in the last Hero Showdown. We love ya, Spidey, but webs and snarky humor won’t save you when the Wolverine comes a’calling. Clearly, we need to step things up a notch if Wolverine is ever going to be dethroned. Now we’re bringing in the finest soldier the U.S. military has to offer.
Lets start with the weapons: Wolverines claws vs. Captain Americas Shield. Much like the super soldier serum that gave Captain America his powers, nobody knows exactly how his shield came to be. What we do know is that it is a vibranium and steel alloy mix, and that no earthly force can cut, scratch, dent, or break it. (I say earthly because Thor dented it once, then repaired it.) But Wolverine has tried to cut Caps shield on several occasions, with no success. Even the Hulk has never been able to damage Caps shield, although the Hulk has torn Wolverine in half... Winner: Caps Shield Secondly, we have physique. Wolverines only superhuman powers are his healing factor. His speed, strength, and senses are hightened above the level of a normal man, but they do not surpass human ability (i.e. they are not superhuman).
If it was a straight up fight, “fair fight”, where Captain America had his shield and Wolverine his claws. Wolverine would eventually win. It might last for a long time since both men have super stamina (Wolverine with his animal aggression, physical prowess and mutant healing factor vs. Captain America’s fighting spirit, American Pride and training, mixed with Super Soldier Serum), but in the end Wolverine could take everything Captain America could dish out, Captain America would end up playing defense as Wolverine would attack again and again in an endless barrage of furious strikes only growing more intense and angry as rage from not connecting with his attacks. Much like the super soldier serum that gave Captain America his powers, nobody knows exactly how.

Magazine
For my magazine I didn’t want to do the same old boring layout so I choose to create a marvel comic magazine using a complicated layout system. I used the style from the comic book and took them as a big influence through my brief on the magazine. I create the front page and a double page spread.
