Sci-fi Society: Banner and Leaflet

I produced these for Freshers Fayre to Advertise the Science-Fiction society which I am Vice President of this year. I kept things very simple using silhouettes of classic sci-fi spacecraft, updating the sci-fi society logo and utilizing the slogan our last president came up with "Fathoming the far reaches of the galaxy and then heading down the pub".

There are improvements I would make mainly with the the silhouettes, I would next time make them myself with illustrator, as I found with the enterprise, the quality diminishes when scaled up, but apart from that it was a success and it served its purpose in attracting the attention of potential sci-fi society members.

University Project: IPP: Zines - What is your Superhero Persona?









This blog post is well over due, was meant to be posted months ago, but here it is, what was actually the most fun project I have had the pleasure of doing and it was a group project.

Why was it a pleasure? well because I finally got to do a comic and do it right, unlike the last time back in my 1st year of uni.

I was in a group 5 and together we came up with our own superhero personas which were meant to be a bunch of misfits that meet online and think they should form a team. Anyway chaos issues when they have their first meeting in public and this is what this short comic & zine is, an introduction to what could become a series. 

It has inspired me to look back at comic book creating and comic art and storytelling, to see where I can go with it

This was a collaborative effort but as for what I contributed was: the cover art, the illustrations of my superhero persona ERUPTION both in character page and comic, also I wrote the story for the comic and designed the layout and content of the panels for the comic.
