Charlotte Tasker Final show

So I made it back home to see my sisters final year Fine Art Show. She is going on to study Fashion photography at Leeds Art College and I couldn’t be more proud of her.

Her project was based around creating material and promoting her fictional band “Love The Accent”. She has been inspired by vintage photography from the 1960’s and 70’s. She has manipulated her photography to give it a contemporary feel such as 3D.

Here are a couple of pictures from her stand.

My picks from 2012 Cannes Lions

So I have gathered together a few of my highlights from Cannes Lions 2012, Enjoy!

The Three Little Pigs – The Guardian

I remember first seeing this Ad last year and the buzz around it was crazy, everyone was talking about it when I went to work the next day and it was all over twitter so a well deserved entry.

Nike Fuel Band

I absolutely love this! Great way to get people motivated and I can see in at least a decade this becoming a way of life and more and more companies following Nike and developing their own versions of the fuel band. I must get one of these!

Charlie Sheen DIRECTV Commercial 2012

There are a series of these ads all very snappy but this is my fave. Well anything with Charlie Sheen in right now is a winner! (no pun intended) But it really grabs you in that short space of time so great execution!

Carlsberg stunts

I think public or outdoor stunts like this are hilarious! and this one doesn’t disappoint. I’d like to think I would make it to the seats also but who knows with all those big, mena bikers sat there!

Dramatic surprise

Wow again with the outdoor stunts! Love this and it had to be somewhere like Belgium! Would have been great to be there and see it in action of course and not knowing if it was for real.

So there you go! There’s some of my faves but you can go check them all out here
