Buzz magazine mock up

A year ago, me and some friends went to a week long seminar at Buzz magazine in Cardiff. Part of the seminar was to get us to make a mock magazine in groups.
My team created a magazine called Issue, and we went to a fairy shop in Cardiff to get pictures. I took the photos, designed the cover and the spread. We did very well overall!

The Penguin and the Polar Bears

You had to have been living in a cave to not have noticed the snowstorms back in early February.
I took advantage of this glorious weather whilst snowed in and working from home. I took some time out to take some cuddly toys out and take some photos of them playing.
These are just a few from the 'series'.

'Here it Goes'

The final picture from the 'music' series...for now, at least.
One of my favourite bands of all time is Jimmy Eat World, and there's an amazing song on their 'Chase This Light' album called 'Here It Goes', so that's what this is for!
The song's about being alienated by fame, but there's a line in the song that goes 'Robots might say your name, they only light the stage, nothing there to prove'- so this picture shows one of those robots admiring a band, hoping to aspire to be them.

New Header/Vampire Monkey

So, you may have noticed that I changed the header. That's because I want to make my name clearer whenever people visit this page.
So i've added the picture that was here before to this post. For those who missed the description the first time around, the Vampire Monkey thing was an idea for a potential cartoon about a monkey called Boris....who's a vampire, and lives in a castle with his sister Anika, and their pet furball, Epie. They live in a town full of monster/animal hybrids.

'Girls'

Following on with the music pictures, this is based on a Kids in Glass Houses song called 'Girls', which is my favourite of theirs, although i despise the fact it was used as the theme tune for 'Totally Calum Best.
Anyway, the song doesn't favour women too well, so this picture shows 2 of them domineering a poor man!
