Bereton Posters


Here are two of my Bereton Poster designs that were chosen to be put up in the bereton restaurant in the college. I designed for mine, a cork screw and knife, fork and plate created out of words.

Xbox 360 Poster

Here I have done a Xbox 360 poster inspired by Shepard Fairey. For this poster, I decided to do my hand holding the controller so that it looked like a fist. I got this idea when flicking through propaganda books that had old World War 1 and 2 posters inside, and from that I saw the fist that were used mostly by Russians that represented power, strength and respect. I then used Shepard Fairey's style of his Obama Hope poster and used that to create my hand, background and text. I decided for colours to use colours used with Xbox so that it went with what I was creating, and the colours I chose were green and red in different shades. I also decided to use the strapline which is used in Xbox, that is 'Jump In'.

Olympic Stamp Design

 Here I have done a stamp for the Olympics and Royal Mail. I designed this stamp to match the 2 other stamp that I created previously which were the paralympic and tennis stamps. I decided to create this new one of hurdles as the one I created previously of hurdles didn't match the first two, so I took the idea of hurdles and created my stamp of a close up of a athlete jumping over a hurdle.
