Poster Done!

Here it is stuck on my window to let the surprisingly British sun shine through the lettering.

Early into producing the final piece of my typographic poster. The idea is to place this on the window and let the light shine through the laser cut type.

The Magic Lantern Show

"The audience may be able to recognise one object from another, even one brand from another, on the basis of what is projected onto the wall - but was is being experienced is far less than 'reality'.

From the book The Philosophy Of Branding, Thom Braun.

This piece inspired my typographic poster for my dissertation (Are religions a type of brand?). I will post the outcome soon.

One of my favourite ads at present, though is it just me who thinks its much more suited for match.com?

Much admiration for the concept and direction, great idea of communicating through book titles. The music alone turned my head to the TV immediately. I do the whole guessing what product it is, I was convinced it was match.com. Still a great ad, did i buy it? YES.

I hope we see this ad from Impulse go further. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UqWtH0osxQ

"How Brands are like Religion" Are religions becoming like brands?

Here is an interesting article that compares the values of brands and religions. Though my question is are religions forming an identity? Does this make them a brand?

Came across an old post with the ideas man himself John Hegarty http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GAHsvEcEj0&feature=related useful for us undergrads!

To make the page appeal to be full i've uploaded a couple of my pieces.

So here it is my first attempt to start a design blog...i promise it'll get better.
