I have created an alphabet using spray paint mainly due to the large numbers of 'graffiti' fonts that really frustrate me. I photographed letters spray painted on to a black back ground. i could only photograph about three to four letters at a time before having to black out the wood again so it was a lengthy process. After photographing all 26 letters i began to create the final layout in photoshop. the finished product will appear in the 'alphabet' section on this site.

 

Have been drawing up this font idea for a while now and the vectoring is now underway. the basic idea of the letter form is that they are based on bold block shapes built by other blocks. I wanted them to look as if it wasn't to unrealistic for the letters to be actually constructed by the smaller shapes. so i tried where possible not to have any odd gravity defying shapes with in the letters.

I was given the brief by London agency VCCP to produce a short viral add for Capri sun, it had to look like a sudden indecent that was captured on film by the public. so very home made and the typical 'you tube style'. bellow is a screen grab from one of the videos. Also is a you tube video of one of the videos live online.

i have a new site online to show a few things i have previously made.
