London Markets in the 60s

Now anyone that knows me will know that I am a sucker for markets and a sucker for the 1960s, so I had to share these photos with you all. :-)

 

The PROPER Avengers

I recently got SO excited when I heard that a new film of The Avengers was being made. Imagine my disappointment when I found out that it was to be a film based on some Marvel comics that I didn't know a thing about :-(

The Avengers is the best ever spy TV series about John Steed and Emma Peel. Diana Rigg played the absolute coolest spy woman in the world. She was intelligent, sexy, kickass, gorgeous and absolutely oozed cool 60s style. Safe to say that when I was a child (and now) she was my idol. As a kid I was so convinced that I would grow up to become a spy. Someone needs to get this show back onto our televisions! I think it would still be just as popular today.

To try and get over my ever growing disappointment that the wrong Avengers is being made into a film I have done some reminiscing. Here are some visual reminders of the best TV show ever...

Little Reminders

I recently Art Directed this commercial 'Little Reminders' for Danone. I am thrilled to announce that it has just been awarded 3rd place and 2000 euro prize in Eyeka's Bonafont competition.

I am really pleased with how this turned out. Despite our very limited budget I think we've managed to make this commercial look really flashy and expensive. I ended up only spending a £50 Art Department budget and managed to beg borrow and steal nearly everything. I was thrilled that designer Emma-Kate Wood let us borrow the gorgeous blue dress which was one of her beautiful creations. It was also great to reunite with director Alex Sufit of Lexitricity productions again.

Now I am just looking forward to our pizza party to celebrate our victory. Woo!
