I create Flyers, Posters and various promotional materials for Bands/Events. To date I have worked on posters and flyers for the following people: Panic Cell, FourWayKill, Bloodstock and The Damnation festivals. I have produced posters for Panic Cell support acts which have included headliners such as American Headcharge, Mudvayne, Mastodon, Raging Speedhorn, Sebastian Bach, Stuck Mojo, Sevendust, Staind, Disturbed, DevilDriver and SOiL. I have had adverts which have appeared in national magazines, for the American Headcharge/Panic Cell Tour of Oct/Nov 2006, and the SOiL/Godhead/Brand New Sin/Lennon/Panic Cell tour of the UK & Europe. I have also just completed work on the recent Drowning Pool/Ill Nino co-headlining tour of the UK. I have done work for some large US bands but my ethos has always been to support the up and coming bands and festivals on the UK Metal scene, The local band doesnt always have the ability or the time to make suitable advertisements or artwork to promote their band effectively. I am not doing this to make a huge profit but to get some recognition for upcoming UK metal and obviously for my portfolio. I dont tend to use traditional hand drawn methods when producing work, I try to veer more towards photo manipulation, and to get a kind of abstract result from merging imagery, such as taking pictures of architecture and other items of interest. This then forms the basis which I can use for any type of product layout (band related) be it a CD cover or a poster/flyer for an upcoming gig. So if anyone is interested in what I can do, or would like to see more examples of work, then please contact me. Work printed in (so far):
I also have had 7 shirt designs put into print. Three of which were for the Damnation 2005 Festival. Two were for the Damnation 2006 festival. All of these shirts sold out within hours of the festival being open to the public. The other shirt designs are the "Pain" shirt for Panic Cell, which was being sold for the first time SOiL/AHC tour at the start of 2006 and the most recent two designs were for the "European Occupation" tour for American headcharge and Panic Cell. The two designs involved different rear patterns for the male shirt and girls skinny shirt.
