Transcript of SMHarrod's Third Year & Exhibition Portfolio
A skateboarding shop based in Liverpool, the aim was to create
imagery to direct existing and new customers to their newly located
shop and their online presence.
LoST arT
I felt that there are a lot of cliches used in skateboarding, implying
the rebellious side of the sport. To be innovative, I devised the idea
of a welcoming party for the new shop location. This webpage design
would link to the original site and the poster would advertise the
party as well as the shop.
5-9 Slater Street
Monday 23rd June8 till late
for more fun and games visitlostartshop.com/lostparty
I also developed a set of board games that could be used as
advertising for the party and shop. Also the games could be played
at the actual event. The rules and the location of the party would be
explained on the webpage.
I’ve created a news company, which shows breaking and topical
stories in a light-hearted way using motion graphics and animation.

The idea was to show my views regarding the news and provide an
alternative way to inform people of recent headlines.
I’ve branded the news company ‘NewsBlert’ as the animations are
quick, as well as being quirky, hopefully making people smile rather
than grimace at the news.
Below are the opening and closing production logos for my channel.

This is a book that I’ve developed. It was created using some of the
rules and guidelines I’ve picked up during my 3 years at LJMU.
my guidebook
The book includes general suggestions, from getting the bus after
rush hour thus avoiding smelly commuters, to reminders on how to
kern type.
I have developed a method to count down a building that is in the
process of being built or refurbished, using construction techniques.
CLoCkSTruCTion
I was inspired to create this project after seeing many construction
sites on my daily walk through Liverpool.
I decided to try and re-create my proposal at home, using building
techniques and materials to create the numbers for the clock.
The clock could be on screen or projected onto the building whilst it
is being built. This could be used to create publicity for the companies
involved, as well as informing the public of the expected completion
date.
But could also be applied to the rebuilding of areas or cities.
