BHive Academy
Imagine you are on the edge of a cliff, looking down into the abyss. You sway backwards and forwards as your breath catches in your throat.
Feel this fear. This is the fear that almost all final year students will feel as they come to the end of their degrees and have to step out into the big wide world and find a job. It can feel like standing on a cliff edge.
But never fear, the BHive Academy...

A bit of a piss take on D and AD, but it has some of the funniest, and cleverest ads i’ve seen in a while, some that would never be allowed to run but just to see how well they might work is great.

really inspiring print ads

These just show that print can still be fun, despite the competition from digital and film. These are really inspiring and so simple but so clever and whitty.

A funny site for a hilarious pair. I love the people and the site has a bit of cheekiness to it and also doesn’t look like your regular band or tv show website. Their different, so it’s only fitting that their site should be too.

Izze Campaign
On this project I learnt how to use After Effects. I instantly took an interest to it and really tried hard to bring this idea to life.
I hope the idea of the drink being all natural and fruity comes through and made inside the bottle.

A facebook campaign thats gone viral. This is a great example of how social media can now be used for advertising.

Websites can be boring and all the same, this one is different and for that it stands out. It’s simple but fun and not too serious with hand drawn type and quirky digital features that change as you hover on them.

Hydration Brief
As i have been researching water adverts as a starting point for this brief it is very clear to me that water drink companies have stepped up their advertisement, each has their own style but delivers brilliant advertisement, making something so normal, exciting.
Within this brief I was looking for an area of advertising and a product that needs making better and I have realised that that area is...
