Remember “Flake & Flames,” the Kustom Kulture Documentary?

Jesper Bram, Danish Artist and Tattooer, and also the Co-Director and Producer of the documentary, is back!

During 2014, he has created six different tattoo flash sheets and paintings for art shows and art collaborations. So he’s making some super-high-quality giclee prints of these special pieces of his work.

The campaign is already funded and some of the rewards are already gone, but stretch goals are available! So don’t wait too much, and join Jasper!

In this image taken directly from Pro Syn we see a good example of a modern info graphic. When creating info graphics, quite often we run into issues where fonts simply don’t match up or are difficult to read as they just don’t present information in an elegant fashion.

This one is rather simple but it does flow very nicely and feature extremely readable text that utilizes capital letters for emphasis. Set in a modern Futura style, this is the way that many businesses are choosing to present information in a graphical format today. The images work together, the colours make this section more readable and the entire thing is designed extremely elegantly.

Ultimately, infographics are about presenting a lot of information in a clear and concise format.

People know that a picture is worth 1000 words and a need for a graphic can present some really useful facts alongside a meaningful picture. You could say a graphic like this one is worth 2000 words with the combined impact of the text and images together.

Rather than include information about the perfect IT engineer in a lengthy blog post, we can get all of the main points of an essay or argument all in the same easily digestible format. This could be an elegant poster that you could display in your business or up on a website.

The nice part about this and for graphic in its design is that it’s fully scalable as well see you can blow it up massively or keep it in a small and easily shareable format.

I have definitely had some experience in this industry and designing and photographs I have to say this is one of the best examples I have seen in recent memory. I love the style of this text as well as the cartoon that goes alongside it. I only hope that more designers adopt this style so that we can all work at creating more effective modern infographics.

Ahh! I’m getting married! Yep. I and Abbie are tying the knot! After 4 years of going out with each other, we feel that the time is right for us to make it official. I am still freelancing making custom fonts for several agencies and doing some bits and bobs on the side for example for one of these bars in coventry.

We are looking to make it a small cosy wedding and making sure only our family and friends are invited. Nothing extravagant a nice cosy church and our loved ones!

To come up with the extra cash, I’ve recently being learning WordPress and themeing. I have used two themes from themeforest, and completed these sites; one of the top nurseries in coventry. I hope will make a big hit!

I have already told my parents and we are going to Manchester to visit Abbie’s family to let them know! If anyone knows of any good photographers let us know although we are yet to pick a venue!
