Graphic Design and Branding for the Arts
Busy schedule? Need a creative partner? You're in the right place.
Hi, I'm Matt, your friendly neighbourhood creative. With extensive arts and culture experience, I'm here to simplify your workload and inject creativity into your projects.
Services
Posters
Whether you’re printing them on the office printer and putting them in the toilet door clip frames or running a large outdoor advertising campaign, every arts organisation loves a poster!
From simple artworking to full creative development, I work with organisations large and small to fit every budget.
Logos and Branding
Whether it’s a simple logo refresh, a complete visual identity overhaul or a deep dive into your brand values, I can help you express your best side and help you do you. Very demure. Very mindful.
Flyers
Rack ’em up! Or hand ‘em out. Your call. Just call in a loud and friendly tone!
Folded Leaflets
Leaflets don’t have to be flat! Have an idea or seen something different you like? Let’s chat!
Programmes
Last-minute injury? Cast got covid? Luckily not for this production, but there’s always last minute changes and I got your back!
Photo Editing / Retouching
Whether it’s making your online shop pictures shine, removing that pesky mic stand that someone left in-shot, or compensating for that weird colour light the interactives are shining on the models, most photos could use a little TLC.
I will not use image manipulation to deceive or to change history. I may make an exception to this if cute toy dinosaurs are involved.
Signage
I saw the sign
And it opened up my eyes, I saw the sign.
What if people didn’t see the sign? Where would we all be? If your venue needs new or updated signage, let me lead the way.
Pull-up Banners
Probably the request I get most is ‘can you make me a pull-up banner?’. Yes. Yes I can. Can I make a mockup of one in an AI-generated garden? Yes, I can do that too. You’ll have to put the actual one in a real-life space though - a community event or trade show are popular choices.
Maps
What arts organisation doesn’t love a map? Or several! Whether you need the Changing Places toilet or the stalls (Row J, section B), a map will help you get there. Also, your maps are out of date so you need me to update them for you. You know the leak in the west corridor makes lift B inaccessible don’t you? Amiright?
Environmental
Sometimes you just want something that’s big, cheap and simple and won’t blow away in the wind. No problem. No job is too big or too small and sometimes they’re both!
Showreels
Want to pull together the season’s content for a fundraising appeal? Show off upcoming shows on the foyer screens? Give your community participant the limelight? Boost staff morale at the Christmas party? You may already have the content you need. A showreel can bring the widest range of content together.
Podcast Trailers
Still using a generic podcast trailer template to promote your latest project? Have your own identity and stand out with your own custom-branded look, including animated sound waves and dynamic text. All tailored to the tone of your content.
Motion Graphics
Vertical, horizontal, square. Stage, screen or mobile.
3D
Sometimes seeing something from a different perspective can help, whether static or animated. 3D graphics can help bring interest to a presentation, make an annual report more impactful, or make a funding proposal more compelling.
Used for fun, data visualisation or object interpretation, the third dimension is not as out-of-reach as you might think.
Digital Media
Large scale or small. Whether it’s on the street, in a museum exhibition or in the theatre foyer, I can edit and format your content for any display.
Still haven’t found what you’re looking for?
Chances are I’ve done something similar but just not uploaded it here. Also, every job is different and I love a new challenge!
