Apple line art

Hugo King — Sun, 25 Nov 2007 14:17:37 +0000

I’ve be learning to use Adobe Illustrator by drawing Apple products (I know, what’s better for vector art than technology, right?) I imported photos and used the path tool to trace the outlines, this meant I got the correct perspective and had a good point of reference to use the path tool with. I kept the images to black and white outlines which look clean and simple.

Rich’s rules

Hugo King — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 19:24:46 +0000

Rich is a lovable guy but he’s got these…rules. He wrote them down in the pub one night and they’re so ridiculous they just needed showing off. As a birthday present for Rich I created this pamphlet. It’s in the style of a magazine problem page; pastel colours, simple shapes, etc.

I wrote the copy and assembled the design in Adobe InDesign.

London: A-Z

Hugo King — Thu, 26 Oct 2006 18:46:58 +0000

A trip to London, the challenge: to visit 26 sights, from A to Z, in order. Yeah, so, we didn’t actually plan this and instead just turned up in London with some cameras, a map and a travel card. We made a good job of it though, we got to all 26 sights.

Piccadilly Circus – Sight 16 (The letter P)

We covered almost the whole of London and we hardly ever cheated (except maybe for Z) walking almost 11 miles and travelling by tube for over 25 miles. There’s even a map of our trip!

We’ve made a little video, you should get a good feeling for how we got on. And you can flick through the photos too.

Photographic society poster

Hugo King — Tue, 07 Feb 2006 14:13:12 +0000

I’ve created this poster for the photographic society competition. My aim was to create a simple, eye-catching poster to tie in with the theme of the rest of the society’s publicity. Heavy use of photography would’ve been too overpowering in this case so I chose a limited colour palette. I used Illustrator to create the line-art and assembled the poster with InDesign.
