Brian Griffin Outdoor Exhibition Images



Uploaded these images into the portfolio. Gives you an idea of the scale of exhibition and project as a whole. Very proud of this project and the feedback from all corners has been incredibly positive. To be honest, it's not hard to go wrong working with content as good as Mr Griffin's.

TAK! --> W+K. BHM.UK --> PDX.USA



I can now disclose some exciting news. Today I accepted a job offer to go work in the United States of America and so my time in Birmingham is officially coming to a close.

I moved to BHM 6.5 years ago to set up TAK! with all round genius and top bloke Neil Kinnish. We did some pretty special things - you can see some up there in the portfolio if you want. But changing life priorities and the big bad recession meant we had to close the doors back in June. Sad times.

But a new chapter is about to start. As from next month I will be the Digital Design Director for Wieden + Kennedy over in Portland. I'm very excited, bricking it and honoured to be chosen good enough to work for them, because they're pretty much legends! www.wk.com

Sad to leave TAK!, friends, family and Birmingham but super excited to start the next chapter.

Roll with it!

Brian Griffin, Face to Face Outdoor Show



Took these quick snaps whilst on the way to the opening of the Face to Face exhibition. Was a great experience working on this aspect of the show; I designed the panels and to a large degree the running order of the outdoor show. As the branding is heavily black and white so too is the outdoor show; a black outer and a white inner with various angles protruding in and out acting as subtle directional arrows and general design funk. Was really cool to see people checking out the show and reading the panels and it's great that the show is right outside Snow Hill train station - should attract a lot of traffic.

Face to Face catalogue back from the printers



Just got these back from the printers today; an A2 24pg folded catalogue to support the Brian Griffin Face to Face exhibition which starts this week. These look (and smell) great and the size really helps give the images additional power. I wanted the catalogue to not be bound so that the images could be fully extracted and run across a full spread. Additionally the spreads work both in page order and separated. These goes on sale for £12 I'll add additional info on how to get a copy in the comments as soon as I know.

More info about the show here: www.briangriffin-facetoface.co.uk

Tomorrow I go down to see the outdoor show which I also designed and configured the running order on. Great project to work on tbh.

New portfolio online



Homepage_760

Really happy to finally get this online. It's been a crazy week of late nights, digging out work, discovering fonts are missing and exporting to jpeg. Urgh. Oh yeah, then there's all the CSS I learnt on the job whilst doing it - so if it doesn't work in your browser then sorry but this is my first since 2001.

Otherwise, enjoy!
And yes, I'm available for work.
