Design addiction

I've been designing since 1994, and in that time I've had the chance to do almost everything, from invitations to billboards:


Internal print campaign for ABSA Bank's procurement division



Anti-Alcohol print campaign



Design for the Two Oceans Aquarium


Earth Day poster


MTV Africa Music Awards


'Psychology of winning' Billboard design


Civic Theatre posters for Romeo & Juliet


Civic Theatre's Salome

Illustrating the point

Here are some of the illustrations and storyboards I've done:







Miller Rock the Boat



Miller Rock the Boat is a brand activation where 3000 passengers get to party it up non-stop for 3 days on the high seas. Besides SAB Miller, NuMetro Cinemas and DSTV joined as lead sponsors. Each sponsor was given selected areas of the 13 storey cruise liner to which they could apply all their branding, with on-board competitions and give-aways. Design elements included -

Elevator door and stairwell branding,







200m of non repeated banner signage,






T-shirts







DSTV Comedy club T-shirts


Welcome Mats outside cabin doors,


'Do not disturb' door hangers complete with Post-it pads & pens,


Other design collateral included: 

Redesigning the ships bar menus, Pre-boarding info booklets, branded plastic ticket holders,
10M Miller branded 'red carpet', Towels, bar mats, gobos, stickers, umbrellas, table cloths, print ads in FHM, vouchers, e-mailers and sponsorship documents


Logos

I've been designing for almost every type of design application since 1994. From Brand development and CI's to full event campaigns: Websites, concept development, branding, print ads, brand activations, packaging and illustration.
