Serial Cut- Sergio Del Puerto

Sergio Del Puerto. Makes 3D typography and hardly uses the computer at all to enhance his work. Check out the fantastic website: http://www.serialcut.com/

Completed for Loughborough Students Union

A downloadable application form I completed for Loughborough Students Union, to apply for Robert Bakewell Hall Committee. There's also a competition to complete the logo for the hall, which I am keen to get involved on, so watch this space!

www.jobsintown.com

I love the idea of these adverts for jobsintown.com. It brings back that childhood fantasy of someone curled up inside the cash machine pushing the money out for you. How is there enough room for all the money etc.?

I also think it is clever because it brings back the ideals you have when you're a child. How you thought you could be anything when you were young and you had a whole wealth of opportunities ahead of you. But you can get stuck in a dead-end job, and this company is the one to get you out of the trap. The confined space works so well with the idea of being stuck, and life being short; the pressure of making decisions. Ooof brilliant!

Craig Ward

Recently discovered the typographic artist Craig Ward who I really enjoy. He goes under the pseudonym "words are pictures", and creates typographic images that are really exceptional.



He constantly experiments with the "notion" of typography, and works in 3D and cinema 4D.



He has also produced large-scale maps, made entirely of type, of world cities that he personally has visited.

Really exciting and totally brought a whole new way of thinking towards type projects for me.

Trip to Venice and Milan

Just got back from a trip to Venice and Milan with my graphics colleagues.



It was a fantastic experience and I especially loved Milan (Think I might be a bit of a big city gal).

I found myself taking a lot of photos of bicycles and random interesting people I spotted and snapped.

Whilst out there we had to complete a photographic project on Venice. My group and I chose to capture the two sides of Venice; the romantic ideal that people from all over the world come to enjoy and the day-to-day Venice that locals experience. The way we shot the contrasting shots to communicate our message was very interesting, but since we were only given a disposable camera to use, it'll be nice to see if it works as well as we hope!
