Design PORTFOLIO

..and Mambo, I am a Website and Multime-dia designer currently freelance partner-ing with design & film agencies whilst completing my BA Multimedia Degree at Greenside Design Center.

ViZion Communications is a group of Independent

artists that provide, Strategy, Design & Ex-

ecution for your brand.

Comprised of Graphic & Multimedia Designers, Copyrighters, Art Directors and Strategists we look at your product and or service needs and create evolutionary concepts that are relevant for your market.

We design Websites, Microsites, Video Fillers, Stop Frame Animation, Illustrations, Infographics & 360 Degree Activations and Print Campaigns.

We are a small flexible team who are passionate about our work.

My studies in Creative Multimedia have enabled me to explore many processes and disciplines within many areas of design.

I like to think that my Degree, IMM Diploma and Commercial background in graphic design enables me to create web sites and multimedia presentations that stand out and catch people’s eyes, while still meeting client’s expectations for their projects.

Even though my passion lies in web design being able to commu-nicate using a wide variety of media such as; image making, film,

photography, animation, 3D and sound editing, helps me design to the requirements of inspiring briefs.

I work efficiently to tight deadlines and have the abil-ity to work well both in a team and independently. I am highly self motivated and enjoy the challenge of designing and creating websites and campaigns that meet all the requirements of a brief. I also have the ability of learning software and processes very quickly,

What I most love about design is that it is always changing; each project that I am lucky enough to be

involved in creates new challenges, so every day is dif-ferent and I am always learning something new.

What made me choose Design? The Advertising Bug bit me! My journey into advertising started 15 years ago then I followed digital design with the aim of getting a BA Multimedia & Website degree over & above my

NTech IMM diploma.

I hope you enjoy the 10 non-commercial projects that I chose to showcase, please log onto our website www.thevizion.co.za for more information.

“So too is our DESIGN process, as we look for our Clients’ REASON thru Research that exposes us to GREAT WORK that carries the good and bad that has set a PRECEDENT which allows us to play and explore solutions that make us CRAFT Exceptional Designs.”

The Brief: The objectives of this project was to create an iconic piece of creative work that is fresh and relevant to today’s con-temporary South African popular culture.

Our contribution should carry a meaningful message that con-veys an issue significant to to-day’s cultural socio-political and economic climate.

In essence, the One Small Seed com-petition where

looking for a unique voice and fresh ways of engaging and communicating our message to our audience.

Rationale: By applying the “Do not feed the workers.” mes-saging, I was reflecting current societal high class attitudes and perspec-tives towards the lower working class. I was just telling an uncomfortable truth I suppose.

This project continues the theme of ‘drawing’ with alternative media.

We had to create an illustration that will successfully explore visual narrative to capture the essence of an existing rhyme.

Nursery rhymes are often viewed in a nostalgic manner, which captures the

essence of childhoodness. Fantastic Mr Fox by Roald Dahl

was one of my books as it tells a story about Mr Fox and

how he outwits his farmer neighbours.

Wit, charm & panache are the intrinsics of Mr Fox that appealed to me and inspired me to develop this illustration.

The brief was to Create an OBAMA HOPE type of image through a series of stencilling and rendering exercises.

We had to incorporate ONE word that encapsulates the mean-ing, context and relevance of the final ‘stencilled’ image and apply it

on the cover of TIME magazine

Rationale: The growing popularity of Afrikaans Hip Hop still fascinates me as diverse cultures are adopted and accepted by the new Proudly South African generation.

With Hip Hop being popular amongst Black & Coloured peo- ple initially and currently being embraced by Whites, Max Normal & Die Andwoord are a reflection of transforming mind sets in the new South Africa for me.

Their video becoming a viral phenomenon on the internet was a digital success that I felt be-fitted a feature on Time Magazine.

The Brief: In the computer world, we have been introduced to the concept of WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) but as experience with monitors has taught us, looks can be deceiving.

In this project we had to prove that looks can indeed be deceiving, by using one image, to create another.

Our challenge was to create a series of illus-trations that will be used to ‘infest’ existing photographic environments.

We had to create illustrations which begin with an ink blot and eventually bring mon-sters to life.

HDR Imaging: “da Boyz in my hood.”

Lego Man: What makes you tick?

Rationale: I am always behind the scenes making concepts happen, my work experience at Gearhouse Durban not only exposed me to the production of BIG concerts but the aura of big screen Multimedia production.

The Brief: Whilst Building on my past illustration experiences, the brief required me to produce an information graphic which provides insight into what makes me unique. This needed mastering an existing illustra-tion style that best related to my personality and the use of cut-away technique to show basic anatomy.

Think HARD

This was an Exhibition Piece exploring colonialism and post-colonialism within the contemporary context of globali-zation.

Critical Studies is a theory & literature related coarse at GDC which reviews and critiques the dynamic evolution of cultural

messaging.

Topics ranging from Marx-ism, Capitalism, Feminism and Enlightenment , to

name a few , are unpacked and explored. in this coarse

The brief for this essay was to look at the advent of photography and the effect it had on the other.

I came across this photograph taken

of my Mothers Great Grandfather in the 1880’s. The Aura about it is the hidden truth behind the unwanted power, photography captures the Authentic-ity of that moment that dispels colonial myths.

I plan on embarking on a crusade that aims to

collect such photo-graphs and imagery

from various people that participate.

This being Images that reflect the hidden class development emergence that was quashed by Imperialism in Africa & Southern Africa.

CD packaging of my favourite band was the essence of this brief.

Low end and high end technology had to be considered within the design & print.

My approach was aimed at being slick.

Slikour! Not only is his music good, but he shares the Slick name that inspired the silver rain drops for the CD sleeve.

The fold and open of the CD sleeve has a mini booklet that opens out-ward with a hinged to it.

Look out for other variations in 2011.

The brief was to develop a microsite and to develop a black label brand affirmation cam-paign for young, open minded south african black label drinkers.

Rationale: Mash Collaborations gives players the opportunity to

Choose, watch, rate, comment, and pass onto others 2 of their favourite SA Music Groups

ranging from Kwaito to Rock. They get to choose from 5 groups from Mandoza

(Kwaito), TKZ (SA Hop), The Parlotons (SA Rock), Die Antwoord (SA Hop), BKL JKS

(SA Rock). The Most popular combinations win prizes or get to see the collaboration live

in the making.

The Brief was to redesign the SABC logo and carry the new look across the stations that are broadcasted.

Namely SABC 1, 2, 3. Thereafter 10 second fillers would have to de created that would tie in with the new image. This new look would then have to be acti-vated across various advertising mediums.

Individuals are encouraged to submit ide-as that would address any areas of crime Since crime is broad, the metaphor of a rat disturb-ing a household which then tries to exterminate him

was the approach I took.

The solution being a smart cat being introduced which then chases the rat away. So are you that cat?

30 second PSA: Clay Stop Frame Video was used here to depict a young struggling star that shines as a result of a bigger star show-ing the little one the tricks of being bright & shiny.
