New year… old shed

Posted in Letterpress on January 8th, 2012 by owl'n'wolf

Happy New Year. We’ve just finished work converting an old garden shed into a cosy letterpress workshop.
It features all the modern printer could need, electric lighting, a two bar heater – but most excitingly a galley proofing press, Adana Eight-Five and a small but growing collection of type. We have also constructed
a Heath Robinsonesque exposure unit for creating our own printing plates. Here are some Thank You cards we’re working on using a combination of 320gsm 100% recycled card and Linseed inks.

We have just finished a short animation for local project Clear About Carbon. The project’s aim is to increase carbon and climate awareness within businesses and the public sector. The animation shows how a few simple choices we make can make a big difference on both a local and international scale.

Eden Project – The Journey Continues

Posted in Animation, Graphic Design on September 21st, 2011 by owl'n'wolf

We have just finished work on titles and motion graphics for a film charting The Eden Project’s 10 year journey, from a sketch on a napkin to an educational charity with global reach and recognition. *We are currently waiting for the real audio track so in the mean time have done a quick edit to Adventure Tour by Ruby Suns (who are excellent, so check them out and buy lots of their records).

The Big Lunch 2011

Posted in Branding, Graphic Design on July 4th, 2011 by owl'n'wolf

We’ve had a busy few months down here at the Owl’n'Wolf lair. We are pleased to announce that we have just completed a major design and branding job for The Big Lunch. This national campaign aims to get as many of the 61 million people in the UK as possible to have lunch with their neighbours once a year. Since it began in 2009 roughly 3 million people have taken part, and many communities have seen a real benefit.

Our mission was to bring The Big Lunch idea to a wider audience, while at the same time keeping the valued ‘lunchers’ who made the event such a success in its first two years. The solution plays with the idea of nostalgia and cherished memories of past lunches through the collaged photo box scenes (containing real lunchers from 09/10) and at the same time shows prospective lunchers the many different forms their future lunch could take.
