Wasted
Poster created for Film Student Grace Alexander, her documentary ‘Wasted’ follows student Jesse Lapworth as he tries to live zero waste for 2 weeks.
Grace was clear with what she wanted and I worked closely with her, making sure the poster matched the films tone. We were both very happy with the result.

Misscoteque
I was contacted by The Womxns Disco Collective to make a poster for the event Misscoteque that was hosted for women and non-binary people in Bristol. I wanted to make something that looked modern, and also in a bright colour scheme that reflected the vibrancy of the target audience.
Later I was then contacted to make another poster, in a similar theme for the second Misscoteque event.

Earth Day
I created this poster in a 1 day In-Design workshop. The project had very strict restrictions, including 6 font sizes and 4 font families to choose from. I am really happy with the outcome, and how it would theoretically look if used as a campaign.

Eat Less Meat
This briefs official title was “Engage/ Enrage” and was tasked to us in order to think about how to create real impact with poster design. I wanted to push the idea of eating less meat as opposed to a full on vegetarian or vegan lifestyle because I think it is a more attainable global goal.

Restoration
This personal project was my way of turning old family photos into modern pieces of work, in my own way restoring them to relevance. The imagery is taken from photo albums found in my Grandpa’s house. He had taken these on a variety of holidays with his best friend Ken, and his future wife Joan.

Repair Declaration
After listening to a talk about the importance of repairing we created our own manifesto on what we had learnt. We took pictures around Bristol of repairs, both good and bad. We also scanned in the tools used to fix them and layered everything together.
Then we layered over our statements and finished by creating a print.

Oversized Poster
We were tasked to create an ‘oversized’ poster based on our subject (Mine being Light). I used the imagery I had been creating that week and placed the poem over the top. I used the highlighted word and a black background to create contrast. I printed this poster A2.

Some Memories Are Stronger Than Others
Experimental photographic zine with a pull-out interview section.
This project was made in a day, the images were created using a photocopier and old family photos. The interview pull-out is a discussion I had with my parents about what we remember from the day the photos
were taken.

Product Design
Gin Brief
Gin Bottle design for the Black Penguin Gin annual competition.
The experience of entering the competition was really educational, and whilst they were excited by my use of illustration, pattern and texture I was told to try improving my use of type- which I then acted on.
