Talking Heads
As a consequence of our involvement in the If Conference late last year, the stylish folk over at Wallpaper asked us to create an illustration to accompany their article on Intelligence Squared, If, and the growth in future-focused, speaker-driven events. We tackled it as we did the work we subsequently produced for many of the [...]
Please be patient
Here is a quick update showing some illustration work we did with the lovely people at together for the Health Foundation.
and this time it’s vinyl…
Here’s an illustration done not long ago for my old friends at MUDAM, Luxembourg’s museum of contemporary art. The poster advertised a Kickstarter-style record launch event.
Fry vs Widdy
@Stephenfry versus Ann Widdecombe. Round One! These caricatures were created by Scriberia for an animated debate we created with @intelligence2 titled “Is the Catholic Church a force for good?” which should be going onto Youtube in a few days time. We’ll let you know a bit more about the animation once it’s up but we [...]
Great Expectations!
Here’s an illustration just completed for our friends at the National Autistic Society – the UK’s leading charity for people with autism. Great Expectations is their campaign for the improvement of the SEN (Special Educational Needs) system for kids with autism – giving a voice to parents and children who have suffered a lack of [...]
Speedboats and Supertankers
Here’s a wee editorial illustration from new @contagious magazine. This illustration was for an article by Ben Malbon who is director of strategy at Google’s Creative Lab. He talks about how innovation is such a hot topic right now but ensuring it happens on a day to day basis is a totally different matter. Effective [...]
Scriberia and the Zombie Scribe
Sometimes we work with business men and women. Sometimes we work with government. Or the good people who run charity organizations. Now and again, an undead writer comes knocking. Zombie Hand said “My book needs a cover” and I said ok, I’ll do it. Because it’s an amazing tale. Very, very funny. And nobody says [...]
It’s catching on!
Issue 26 of Contagious Magazine is hot off the press – and we’re delighted to have contributed an illustrated overview of its contents in the form of this jam-packed poster. We had to work pretty fast – which is the only way we know how I guess – reading through features and articles as they [...]
Ageing Gracefully
Over the last few months we have been working with the Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust to provide an illustrated approach to their work in older people’s services. In particular, we’ve been looking at what happens when someone starts to display signs of dementia (in case you weren’t aware, these might include trouble sleeping, [...]
Don’t sweat the small stuff
It was an interesting challenge creating images for Face, the co-creation brand agency – http://www.facegroup.co.uk. We often have to conceptualise something that’s hard to nail as an image. It’s more challenging to make that a small image for a web page. I think I like working in miniature.
Anty-heroes out to lunch
On the back of his remote scribing efforts (organised by our friends at Learning Times) the Smithsonian Institution recently asked Dan to create an info-packed trayliner. In case you were wondering, trayliners are the sheets of paper sometimes placed on trays in fast-food outlets, school canteens etc. This one prompts some pretty serious thinking about [...]
Three Four..um
Here is a small sample of work Chris did for the Three mobile brand forum this year, hence the terrible title for this post. The job entailed creating a series of illustrations that could be used for signage, maps, badges and bags during the event. The lovely people at Wham design, who commissioned Chris, sent [...]
When the boat comes in
I did this last summer, working with a consulting company to create an imaginative way of persuading a very well known telecoms company that they needed a series of workshops for their line managers! Unfortunately, it wasn’t quite enough to win the work, but the feedback on the image was really positive. It was hand [...]
Timeline
This is an excerpt from a timeline I created to record and celebrate the stages of a government project. Unfortunately I can’t show the full detail but I think this gives a good impression. I created two more to capture the evolution of the project over the next two years. They were printed large and [...]
Can I just flag these up?
This stuff is about three years old actually, but as I don’t do a lot of information graphics work I thought they were worth posting for their rarity value! These posters were designed to offer a quick download of information for a well-known mobile phone company deciding where to base their European shared service centre. [...]
