Flurry of updates.

Hello Hello.

This is a bit more of a wordy blog post than usual, thought I'd give a quick update on what's turning out to be a very eventful couple of weeks:

Designers / Makers

This has been quite an exciting development, Designers / Makers is an agency for contemporary design, looking to help promote and develop freelancers and brands. The premise is that you apply for a year long membership, if they deem you suitable, you're in. Think of it like the Justice League - but for creative types. That's how I like to view it (I'm Batman).
They organize marketing and selling events for your work (also via their online shop) and offer advice on professional development. I have my own profile up on their site, scroll down to the bottom to see. Definitely more news to follow soon.

For Arts Sake re-stock

Had a re-order of stock at For Arts Sake which is always appreciated.

Brand spanking new card designs

I'm also happy to announce that I've released some new designs onto my shop. I've produced 5 new designs with a view of making 5 more in the next month or so. I'm happy with the results. I surprised myself with the quick turnaround of just a week to think up and complete them all. Hopefully they'll do just as well.



I have a few other projects in the pipeline including a Film Noir comic based in a school environment which I've been dipping in and out of for the past year, more info to follow soon. As well as that, I'm currently planning a 'video comic' collaboration which I'm very excited about. These things always take a while to process and finish off so patience is a virtue (for now).

Memory Lane.

I was purging through my iPhoto library earlier to make more room for my current projects and I couldn't help but come across a bunch of photos of when me and the guys lived in the infamous 'Studio 65'. Below are some of my favourites that bring back funny memories or events that happened during our 2 year residence there.

Leo in Maz's room, for some reason that day a strange smell was coming from Maz's wall. The mystery was never solved.

The time we quarantined Leo in his room. 

This was after one of the first times we ever did the Jumbo Chicken Challenge at The Montague Arms in New Cross. This place is epic for Sunday Roasts, I couldn't recommend it any higher. I'm pretty sure Maz finished off someone else's plate too, that cheeky rascal.

This was an exhibition Leo, Maz and I held in our garden for one of our projects. It looked brilliant at the end of it after a lot of hard work. I remember Maz got a better mark than me and Leo by 1% even though it was a group project. Clear favouritism.

On the same night 'Dimitri' (aka Mikee Reed) was our performing artist for the eve by playing a saw. Yep.

Myself and Adam chilling on our roof when I was recording timelapses for my 'Consume' project. Lovely little cotch to chill on a summers day.

GOT MA MEAT N BREAD. WHA ELSE A GUY NEED? The night Leo and I made our own burgers. They were amazing.

Leo and Tim Bott chilling on my bed in the summer. Think this was the morning after a party we all went to in New Cross. HAVIN' A GOSS!

Everyone loves my bed. Leo, Maz and Adam. Not sure what was going on here but it sure wasn't the only time we were huddled round a laptop.

Yeah... don't think Leo ever knew about this! (Hi Leo) We nicked one of his descriptive tags from our end of year exhibition and placed it on a toilet. That's how we roll.

Classic Jon smile.

Keir in my room in between takes for the film noir I shot for my third year project.

Tar Tar For Now

'RE:session'.

Here it is, the moment you've all been waiting for, the full version of of my debut short 'RE:session'. It lasts 16mins or so, it may seem a lot but it isn't really! I apologize for the quality as per usual seeing as I had to compress this to able to fit onto my vimeo account (too long for youtube). But yeah! I hope you enjoy, and feel free to leave any comments too. Also, a special thank you to EVERYONE who was involved, too many to type here now but you are definitely credited in the film itself.
