HypeForType TYPOGRAPHIC REVOLT (EDITION #1)

In an effort to bring their Exclusive Faces range to a larger audience, HypeForType approached graphic designer Ryan Atkinson to produce their first magazine release: Typographic Revolt. The brief was to produce a 16 page A2 mailer with a twist. Instead of following the traditional convention of a read through booklet, Ryan designed a quick read through A2 magazine which also doubles up as a set of 4 Exclusive Faces posters. Each page folds out to create a double sided poster perfect for your studio or home wall space.

The magazine itself is printed litho on 90gsm wood free paper, giving everything a premium newspaper feel which absorbs the inks to create a beautiful desaturated look and feel.

ManvsMachine / More4 Idents

After winning a competitive pitch, Channel 4 commissioned ManvsMachine to create a new brand identity and on-air look for More4. The re-brand is centred round a bold, flexible logo that morphs through a series of flips, folds and reveals. Live-action idents see the brand break out into the real world in the form of mechanical ‘flippers’. The installations inhabit environments from a domestic staircase to an abandoned fishing boat in Dungeness. To achieve this ManvsMachine teamed up with installation design pioneers, Jason Bruges Studio, to help design and build a flexible system consisting of over 400 individual flipper units. More here.

Blur Studio: The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo ~ Titles (2012)

Blur Studio Creates Opening Titles for David Fincher’s “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

~ A sequence delivering a black on black abstract retelling of the entire Millennium Trilogy.

Blur Studio was tapped by longtime collaborator, director David Fincher, to create the opening title sequence for his highly-anticipated film, “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo,” based on the first story of Stieg Larsson’s Millenium Trilogy. ‘All that I’m asking you to do, is reinvent any expectations of what a title sequence could be,’ was the project’s creative mandate directly from Fincher. With that, Blur co-founder and the title sequence’s creative director Tim Miller began working with Fincher to cull key moments in the Trilogy that would lend themselves to abstract imagery and visual metaphors. Along with that process, the Blur team compiled concept art establishing a high-gloss, black on black, liquefied macabre look that captivates viewers from the first frame.
