Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles ‘Evergreen’ Retro Collection (Concepts)TMNT is known throughout the world, growing in strength from year to year. With this in mind, Nickelodeon wished to produce concepts on how we can make TMNT in to a brand itself.For this brief I wanted to take TMNT back to it’s original roots of New York City in the1980’s. I took inspiration from a variety of aspects ranging from the look on the streets/graffitito food trucks of the time. This was then incorporated in to the designs.I then went on to create a variety of concept designs that would be used in a TMNT flagship store - this was then presented to Senior Vice Presidents during a recent 2016 Global Trade Conference.

‘MTV Glitch’.A self initiated brief. Glitch has been a huge trend within the design world for quite a while now and has recently made quite a comeback. The MTV logo was used as it gives a very nostalgic feel to the effect. A quirky piece of imagery that was fun to do.

‘Idioms’ - Self Initiated ProjectHow people perceive idioms and what they mean to people are quite humerous - with that in mind I wished to start a project to which I would illustrate a variety of idioms using a broad range/mixture of styles and techniques.This particular idiom revolved around the ‘egg on your face’ phrase. This was created with two outcomes in mind. Both were very highly 90’s inspired (think old schoold MTV), mixed with a pop-art/screen print feel.

‘The Little Book of White Lies’‘The Little Book of White Lies’ was a final University project that explores the lies we are told and believe on a daily basis.A coffee table book that was developed to be perfectly readable for dyslexics. Everything from the colouring, the fonts and layout were considered and thoroughly researched. The book uses augmented reality when the illustrations are scanned via a suitable device - this then produces an animation which will showcase the lie.This project became much more than just a book as it took on a brand. Merchandise wascreated to go alongside the initial book.
