The village of Newbold Verdon in Leicestershire held it`s first ever Scarecrow trail in May 2018 and I was tasked by its organizing committee with branding the event on a theme of "At The Movies". The posters had to be adaptable for an initial "in village" call for entries both in print and online via social media etc where a hashtag #NVScarecrowTrail was used for residents who wanted to share their progress etc. The "call for entries" poster was followed by a more general campaign aimed at the wider public encouraging visitors to the event.       The main event poster was distributed throughout the local area to encourage visitors and prominently featured the event hashtag #NVScarecrowTrail asking visitors to tweet their photos taken at the event.      The Call for Entries poster was displayed within the village to encourage residents and the community to register their interest in creating a scarecrow for the event, A QR code was in...

A brief to design a poster for an 80`s themed disco fund-raiser for Leicester charity Menphys. The poster needed to evoke the themes and style of the 1980`s yet still needed to appear modern when displayed alongside a number of other posters on a noticeboard etc. The poster design needed to appeal to a target demographic of teens through to adults and fit alongside other posters and literature used by the charity. The final outcome is a largely text based layout with a striking Red colour scheme (the charity colour) with the main details offset at a 45 degree angle creating a dynamic form that takes its cue mainly from the majority of 1980`s electronics packaging.
