WET: The Making Of
|  |
This behind the scene for the WET booklet is excellent. Then have a look at the wonderful portfolio of Sergio del Puerto at Serial Cut.
DESCRIPTION
A 20-page promo magazine for the first non-dry gin in the world: WET by Beefeater. The publication was created by DressLab, designed by Albert Folch, and distributed in the coolest fashion stores and clubs.
PROCESS
To promote this drink, in every WET issue, a creative is invited and given a theme, to develop an idea that links it to the brand. For the first issue, Serial Cut™ was chosen to do so, having the Night as a theme. All photographed elements were REAL, so the final result was a photographic collage, with elements that had been scanned, printed and cut (falcon, deer) and Helvetica typography made from plastic and real elements (pink strips, straws, ice cubes, glasses, diskette...). This collage could have easily been done with Photoshop, but was actually done in a photography studio, and was barely retouched digitally. It’s something like “photographed graphic design”, in a sophisticated blue and magenta atmosphere.

Sampler
Seb (ex-kleber intern) and D* are pleased to announce the launch of SAMPLER.
Please point your browsers to:
http://sampler.twoday.net/
"This blog is part of the diploma by The D and Seb in Graphic-Design at the University of Applied Sciences, Zurich.
Together with Mark Kirby from Vertical Form, we are developing a visual identity for a sideline of the London-based record label Vertical Form called Form Music which will provide music consultancy, supervision and licensing solutions to the TV, film and advertising industries.
Sampler is here to make communication between him and us a lot easier.
Furthermore, this blog is not only a way to document our process but also a different approach in working with a client with the help of an online platform.
We are trying to develop our diploma publicly…and that is where you come in:
We collected e-mail adresses of people whose comments, hints, critique and recommendations we appreciate. So please check the site once in a while (or use the attached RSS Newsreader) and leave your comments. We are trying to do our best to keep it comprehensible.
All the best,
Seb & D"

western state 3 Geoff Mcfetridge
WS3 examines Geoff Mcfetridge, his work and his moustache. Work that includes; the opening titles for "Adaptation" and "Virgin Suicides," videos for Simian, The Avalanches and graphics that are often imitated but never quite equaled. Mr. Mcfetridge has shown his work in Los Angeles, Paris and Tokyo. His design shoppe, Champion Graphics, is located in Atwater Village, California.

The Curious Boym was a fun and easy project for all of us. We were never stressed out, because we started soon enough. And Constantin, the industrial designer this book is about, would come by our office every three to four weeks over a period of eights months with cold been and we would talk. We would look at what we did and explain what we wanted to do. We would discuss our differnt views on things and in the end we would be drunk. The publisher left us alone. The book was finished when we stopped meeting."

Graph'Wax

Back in the early nineties I picked up a compilation with future hip (trip?) hop heavyweights like DJ Shadow, Nightmares On Wax and UNKLE, it was called Headz from the new Mowax label. The music was a head of its time and the cover design was even better. Thick textures, hand-made quality and street-coolness.
The designer responsible, was Ben Drury. See some of his work here.

Dear Syrup. I know you've moved on and looks like you're happy and doing well, but you're not using Reykjavik for your copy anymore. I just want you to know that I will always love you and even without my font - we can still be friends and everything... Yours truly... Stefan.
