Bombay Bicycle Club Tour Visuals

Visuals created for their 2014 UK Tour

The visuals seen throughout the video shown below were produced exclusively for use during the Bombay Bicycle Club 2014 UK Tour, they were matched and inspired by the album released by the band that year titled 'So Long, See You Tomorrow'.

Bombay Bicycle Club - Touring Video and Animation Design from Adam Young on Vimeo.

Having witnessed the stage setup in person, I would agree that the composition of the screens against a backdrop of the band is a great way of showcasing the look and feel the Bombay Bicycle Club wanted the audience to embrace.

The visual style was created using warm colours set against character and animal designed created by hand and inspired by Indian textile and art design from centuries ago. This revokes a retro, slightly earthy feel which I believe adds warmth to the stage as well as the album cover itself which which also carrying the design elements when wrapped together in the circles appears slightly psychedelic zoetrope effect that again would have been used in the early stages of animation development to show case how something that looks, at first glance to be simple is actually a complex artwork of images and illustrations that when rotated look like they're moving.

Virgin Atlantic Safety Video

This video caught my attention on a recent holiday aboard a Virgin Atlantic flight to Florida, the video is displayed before the flight and aims to deliver the essential safety information through an engaging and unique style. A story plays out throughout the short film, the use of animation engages you into the video and communicates the information to the viewer successfully. The company behind the project, Art & Graft created the initial ideas for the 6 minute film in just under 3 months. Considering throughout the process that the video must be able to stay on trend and current throughout it’s probably long tenure and diverse use throughout the Virgin Atlantic fleet. https://youtu.be/8XNxZh9_YN0 Storyboard concept for the opening scenes.

Chronology

For my final major project, I developed a brand identity for a theme park, called Chronology based in Stoke-on-Trent. Materials produced in association with this concept include tickets and vouchers alongside a range of promotional print such as leaflets and guides. In addition to these developed products I produced a vertical wall poster displaying a general advertisement for the Chronology theme park / attraction. I looked at ways I could reach my target market through the development of a mobile app, and an interface that can link the park real time with the application. I developed concepts for the Exhibition Space including to scale representations of the artwork I would include. I wanted to give the Exhibition Space a theme so I thought of different textures of wallpaper to use and the inclusion of lighting. The logo was crafted from drawing done by hand. I wanted something that looked handwritten and at the same time inco...

Emirates AIR LINE

Whilst in London I took the opportunity to ride the Emirates Air Line, constructed for the London 2012 Olympics the cable car system consists of a station from the O2 Peninsula to the Royal Victoria Dock. What immediately struck me from this is the way the Emirates brand is incorporated into the branding for Transport for London. The 'Air Line' section of the logo is contained within the typical TfL roundel image, used throughout the entire transport network be it the Underground, Buses or DLR. I liked how the branding and colour ways for Emirates are present throughout but not overpowering the TfL branding. I think this is important because customers of the TfL network will want to connect with consistent typography, symbols and motifs whilst using different colour allows the network to differentiate it's formats of travel and route whilst retaining the same shape and type. A signage system followed throughout the TfL network sees simple and...
