Harper's Bazaar

A History of Graphic Design assignment based on the popular international fashion magazine Harper's Bazaar. I took all the photos for the photoshoot, except for my one, Nqobile Magudulela took mine while I posed away :-) I also designed the layout for each picture. I particularly enjoyed this, from the make-up to the dressing up to the directing...with Beyonce playing in the background, it was fun times!!!

Editorial Layout

This brief required us to pick one of four pieces of writing and design an editorial layout for a design magazine of our own choice. I decided to design for One Small Seed because of its flexibility when it comes to the contents of the mag. My photographic illustration is based on the article I chose entitled "MEN MUST WACK",  a humorous piece of writing by Herman Lategan about Anton Lembede Street, formerly known as Smith Street, in Durban, Kwa-Zulu Natal.

Corporate Identity

THE BRIEF: The task was to design a new logo for the Point Watersports Club (PWC) and the overall brand identity across it’s various platforms. The brand identity should be coherent and should represent the several clubs that will form the new “superclub”.

Photography

This brief required us to turn a lyric into a photo. I chose a song by India Arie called Pearls. I extracted the line "it hurts like brand new shoes" and turned it into a series of portraits. Different people with tears trickling down their faces, appearing the same but crying for different reasons. Because that's what pain does, it produces tears in all of us but it hurts differently.

The Jounalist...

So my sister's actually a journalist, don't be fooled by the body- good genes i tell ya *wink* I thought one day to go out and take pics of her in our backyard. I love these fashion inspired shoots, and what better way to perfect my skills than to take pics of someone who looks like a model at no cost?!
She is a darling to work with, i swear :-)

Design Indaba DPS

This is a double spread I designed in second year.  The brief was to market ourselves as young and upcoming designers for the Design Indaba Magazine. I had alotta fun writing about how I "stand out" as a designer. 

This was an anti-design assignment where we had to make a one-minute-movie. The name of the movie is Streetclass. And the whole idea is to change the mind-set of society and the way they have programmed us to think. We had to market and brand the film, and above is the poster I designed promoting it.

This was one of the posters for the viral campaign which was part of the brief.

I decided to design a website to further promote the movie.
