Urban Juicy Crew

This was the original rough copy of my three characters of the the Urban Juicy Crew, i based the characters off of a popular british boy band The Midnight Beast, from left to right Dru the date, Strawberry Stef and Apple Ash.













This is the template i created to make a model of the middle character Strawberry Stef, i used all the colours that are associated with strawberries including yellow, green and red.

This is the finished product except the arms would not fit into the body properly without looking wonky.

Music Campaign

 This is the album cover for American Idiot the seventh studio album released by the American punk rock band Green Day, the colour scheme for this album cover is black, red and white this shows that they are a punk rock band that play quite depressing songs.









This is the album cover for The Joshua Tree the fifth studio album from the irish rock band U2, it features all the band members Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. The colour scheme for this album is black, grey and gold the signify that U2 are a very emotional band that play emotional music.


This is the album cover for the Beatles White Album the ninth studio album by the british band The Beatles, it has a basic colour scheme of plain white with 'The BEATLES' written in grey to make it stand out. This album was recorded after the bands trip to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and also caused conflict ion between the band members and  resulted in Ringo Star leaving the band for a while.

Advertising Campaigns


  1. Silhouette
I like this advertising campaign because it shows the basic shape of the image and it also has a basic colour so it doesn't make itself to complicated to the viewer.

2. Typography
I like this advertising campaign because it expresses all the aspects of what the picture is advertising using words intertwined in the logo.











3. Billboards
I like these types of advertising because everyone can see them whether they are driving or walking they always stand out and have any type of advertising you like.

HMV Logo History



HMV Logo History










The hmv logo was originated from a painting called His Masters Voice which featured a Jack russell terrier listening to a phonographic cylinder gramophone. HMV stands for His Masters Voice and the logo has been used for over 90 years since HMV was founded back in 1921. Over the years the HMV logo has changed majorly from the original painting to an animation of the dog and gramophone playing in the snow, however most of the time the logo is simply a silhouette of the dog and gramophone on top of the HMV words.
