PORTFOLIO: ‘Showing Off’ poster

Each year, Derby College holds a summer exhibition of their students’ work.

Last year, the people in charge decided to call it ‘Showing Off’ (God only knows why!), but we were handed the task of designing entries to compete for the prize of having our poster being used around the city to attract visitors.

My simple entry was based purely on ‘Showing Off’ and creating visual impact when placed beside other advertisements around the city, and seemed to do so enough to be declared the winner.

PORTFOLIO: Digital Type Exhibition

…Here it is, my first EVER piece of graphic design.

We were asked to produce a poster for an exhibition for the Design Museum titled ‘Digital Type’, and despite this being 4 years old, and without having any knowledge about typography like I do today, I designed this piece of work, which to this day I still love for it’s visual presence.

I know it’s purely aesthetic, and a complete rip of the movie-classic ‘Tron’, but it will always have a place in my heart!
