Is this the death of football...



and other t-shirts to follow...

Some other bits...

All part of the presentation to the Cheshire bobbies.

Picked up by the Peelers...


48 sheet concept presented to Cheshire and Merseyside police who decided to go and produce the very same creative (a poor version of) themselves. Talk about cheek.

Take a closer look...

Beautifully produced ads for last Autumn. 
One of 12 versions, all shot 1,000-2,000 fps.

Nice gola ads...



Mac visuals produced for a pitch.

ScS...





Ads and concepts for a challenging client.


Instore food labels for Love Food...

Some work....






Press for food waste, taking the viewpoint of the effort food actually makes to get into your shopping basket, only to be forgotten at the back of the fridge.

And a bit in the middle...

In between all this I had 18 months 'sabbatical', from around 2004 to 2006, as Creative Director at Oakbase in Chester. A great time was had by all as I set about recruiting for the creative department and helping to grow the company's billings to over £12m from £9m. Clients included Bathstore, TJHughes, BonmarchĂ©, McInerney Homes, Bunzl Lockhart and even a serving of McDonalds for good measure.

But before that...

I was a very busy Freelancer, busy helping out on everything from dm to one of the first 'Interactive' projects for TNT at JWT Manchester. Clients then included JWT (before the CB bit was added), Portfolio in Didsbury, GCP, RSCR and McCanns who gave me an offer I really couldn't refuse.

Introduction...

Boy, have I been busy.
Since the Summer of 1999 I've been a busy art director working at McCann Erickson in Manchester. Effectively creating everything from fully integrated campaigns to bespoke dm pieces. I've gained huge experience creating and producing TV commercials to every kind of budget.
