More pictures from the Dentsu workshop.

During Internet Week Sarah & I attended a ‘Making’ workshop run by Dentsu & Matt Ward from Goldsmiths.The idea of the workshop was to involve techniques of thinking-through-making such as drawing and paper-prototyping. We were given a multitude of exercises from drawing with a continuous line to drawing blindly.

The final sketch on here was an idea that emerged from our post-it not session. We chose interpretations of subjects to influence our drawings. Mine was a collaboration of bells and pot noodles!

This was my entry for a competition held by everybodyshout, a shesays collective for Karlsson’s Vodka. The brief was asking for entrants to create something non-advertising for the brand. I received 2nd prize community choice for this piece of product design. Client choice pending…

Karlsson’s Gold Vodka will be served in bars in Potato Stamp Shot Glasses.

Challenge: Bring to life ‘Good ideas should be left unfiltered’.

Insight: Karlsson’s Gold Vodka is closer to it’s root ingredient than any other vodka as it is only filtered once.

Idea: Mark how unfiltered the taste of the Swedish Potato Vodka is.

Solution: Karlsson’s Gold Vodka will be served in bars in Potato Stamp Shot Glasses.

Shots will be served on an ink pad so when you’ve finished your shot you can seal your approval of unfiltered taste.

The bar tops will be decorated with gold paper for people to stamp their shot glasses on. The bases of the shot glasses will have the Gold Vodka logo or the leaf so people can create patterns. This experience will draw attention from other Vodka drinkers who want to get involved in this playful routine of drinking and highlight the root taste of the Vodka.

I met the guys recently in NewYork too:

Currently i’ve been fleshing out the concept to be put up for client choice. I’m investigating the use of UV ink for the stamps and a mat to stamp on that tweets every time someone stamps to promote people drinking Karlsson’s vodka.

Recent mention from Gavin-Gordon Rodgers, an inspiring Creative Director i worked with a couple of years back now at Agency Republic, now Interactive Creative director at W + K . I stumbled across an edible anagram of his blog recently in my local Scandi Kitchen and thought I’d send it to him, along with a little self promotion ;)

Gregory Crewdson’s photography evokes a feeling of awe that has stayed with me since the first time I saw his first photographs at the Twilight Exhibition 2006 (V&A).

I was astounded at the time as to how he had purposefully crafted his photography to have the such size and depth as to entice me to want to step into his landscapes. I wanted to peer out of the limits of the frame to understand the story his photograph was trying to tell. I’ve discovered since this is typical in his photography. The beginnings and endings always lie outside the narrative of the frame.

I was excited when during my recent break in Berlin an Exhibition dedicated to his full works - ‘A Lonely Place’ - was showing at C/O Berlin!

Each incident was mounted to my height, with their rather surreal paint-like quality, from his 3 collections Beneath the Roses, Fireflies & Sanctuary. Here they also displayed ‘the making of’ his photographs not unlike that of a film or music video.

Crewdson employs approximately 150 people over several days to create his hyperrealistic visions. His cinematic techniques are smoke, plentiful lighting and HDR (High Dynamic Range) along with computer manipulation which is what helps him achieve the surreal depth in his images.

However, at the same time he captures a reality accurate to how our eyes would take in such a scene with everything in equal focus. Seeing these photographs on the internet or in a book do not does not do them justice, I implore you visit one of his exhibitions to experience them.

For our Summer Street ‘arty we hired out the basement of the Tea Building, Shoreditch, and held a live art workshop. FinDAC, i and a few other colleagues cut out stencils of agency portraits and on the night the agency staff could collaborate by stenciling their faces onto a large canvas.
