Update of the Publicity Overload Logo and Branding.
Whilst working at Publicity Overload I redesigned their logo. The logo needed updating to reflect the digital design solutions that the company now offered.

The logo colours were changed to grey and orange, the typeface to a clean sans serif. The icon suggested a P and O and also reflected positive images such as a person with their arms raised or a target. The symbol could also stand on its own if space was limited.

Aaren Environtech Logo
This was for a company that provided monitoring solutions for the Food and Pharmaceutical Industries.

 

Breaking Glass DVD Packaging

Breaking Glass DVD Packaging

The design of Collector's Edition packaging for the DVD re-issueof the film 'Breaking Glass".

The pack consisted of a sleeve, 4 postcards, a 20 page facsimile of an original press pack booklet and a 28 page viewing notes booklet.

here was a lot of imagery and elements supplied, however these varied in size a great deal and some were grayscale.

In order to get a cohesive look for the booklet,  I came up with the idea of creating the spreads with a heavy  halftone effect in flat bright colours and then used small colour images as accents. This made the spread design reminiscent of a cross between a Seventies fanzine and "Lookin" Magazine. Not only did this solve the problem of the variations of content quality, it also really helped reinforce the theme of the film which is a musical telling the story of a female singer in the late seventies.
