London 2012 Olympic mascots

Anyone seen these guys yet? Yup the new olympic mascots what they are hoping will raise them 70million profit, yet they wont tell anyone how much they cost to design. however i do feel a good design is somethng you shouldnt have to explain much yet they did? the first people to unvail where the one show, the second they had the entirety of the worls were allowed to see, but i dont understand is the only thing remotely brittish in these is the Taxi cab sign.. but then other places in the world have these too lol, i mean america do for one I was guessing the patterns on them were a simplyfied version of the british flag when looking through the website where i got this image, i do also like the idea of using the olympic rings ans bangles instead and will be a good merchandise point, and probably their biggest source of profit. Also i love the animation but again its a bit of a poor storyline? feels as its been thrown together, anyone else have opinions?

Advertising: Kit Kat

I found this whilst lurking the google for internet meme's and something to have a laugh at, i thought this was pretty clever idea, the idea of using their slogan "take a break" in a literal form and meaning by turning the bench into a kit kat! Love it

Logo and pitch

recently been doing a project that involves rebranding and advertising the sealife centre, you maybe could tell from my last post and poll. Well here is the final logo that i have been using.

Also yesterday had my first pitch, i felt it went really well and i was real proud of myself. all i have to do is wait for the results to come in now. It was an experience, i was nervous, but it was fun and interesting at the same time.

Sharks or rays cast your vote!!!

Which do you prefer to see when you visit the sealife centre, sharks or rays? which gets your more hyped? cast your vote now! leave a vote in the right hand side poll. its open for two days.

Herbal essences gift package

The idea behind this project was to design a gift packaging for herbal essences shampoo and conditioner, however i found that most gift packages when you've emptied them you would just simply discard it so i designed it with a soap dish so you had something to keep once the rest of the shampoo had gone. i added 2 tubes of bath bombs to add to it aswell. i wanted a clear package because the bottles are usually rather decrative anyway and didnt want to take away from that. also it means the package is universal for each type of their shampoo and conditioner range.

Self Promotion and candidates

Finally, its been a while but i can say i have my buisness cards now, im real pleased on how they've turned out, can't wait to start handing them out. My website is also almost finnished, just a few more bits to do and i can start uploading it to a host, so keep an eye out i will post a link here to it when it is done. I am also looking for candidates for websites to go onto my "random favorite" link, so if you've got a website that you think is worth promotiong on there drop your link in the comments bellow so i can check it out.
