Strangely Graphic v2.0

Matt Daniels — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 02:19:12 +0000

As you may be able to tell I’ve neglected my blog & site for some time preferring instead micro blogging platforms such as twitter matt_daniels & Tumbr http://strangelygraphic.tumblr.com/ to share work & inspiration.

But I have big plans for Strangely Graphic 2.0 granted that I can find some free time to design & build it!

Above is a little taster that may or may not be used in the final site… I think we can all agree it’s very yellow

Kick ass poster?

Matt Daniels — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 20:40:45 +0000

Hmm I wonder where they got the wonderfully original idea for this poster?

There’s simple homage then there’s blatantly ripping off Dave Gibbons, and I feel this rather shameless poster falls into the later.

That said the film actually looks kinda good, if you like that sort of thing of course.

BANDEMONIUM!

Matt Daniels — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 09:05:29 +0000

Spend over £100 on clothes and get a freelance contract absolutely free! Well thats what happened while shopping last weekend when I met a rather chatty young woman who served me in New Look (yes they do guy clothes now)!

Heres what I did for her, now I know what your (probably) thinking, surely 100% black on 100% cyan is not going to be highly visible from a distance rather defeating the point of a poster right?

Well the client gets what the client wants, I suggested a bit of neon day glow action myself but maybe it’ll be alright, won’t really know until I get a proof, can’t complain though it’s all for charity!

If you happen to be in Bath April the 29th why not come along?

Spot the difference? – Tour poster (revised)

Matt Daniels — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 00:09:57 +0000

The final client approved version of the take it back tour poster, hopefully you’ll agree the new layout is much clearer than the inital version.

I’ve actually only just listened to their new single ‘Take it back’ and these guys are genuinely good, I know I’m kind of biased because I know Dave (the guitarist) but objectively I think the new single is technically really solid.

Give them a listen you never know they might just surprise you!
