Got some work up in Manchester, adding this print next week

lines look abit ropey because of down scaling. If you wanna look it will be on show next to Magma books at Night & Day.

Its also a self promotion piece thats gonna be sent out to agencies to try and get me a job.

rightclick · 22-05-2006, 06:31

How long will it be up for?

Andy · 22-05-2006, 06:36

Narate · 22-05-2006, 06:44

I have one up already and that one will be up until the end of May

sean_r · 22-05-2006, 08:39

Good stuff. That's front and back is it?

That would be somthing nice to send to agencies along with a your CV.

Narate · 22-05-2006, 08:53

Yeh sending it out as a goodie..tube. Gonna have CV, Letter, Business card, Poster, Pencil in there.

Sending them off to Zip, Spin & Mother. They'll no doubt just ignore it, but worth a shot

Now there's an optimistic man for you! Whats the size of the poster and how have you had it printed. It's always something thats integral to the whole job, yet you rarely hear how a job was done. Just interested really, had thought about producing a poster next year when I feel the need to bail and move on!

sean_r · 22-05-2006, 09:12

Go for it mate! How are you including a pencil? How will that be printed on? I like how you're thinking though. If you send them things they can actually use, they're more likely to keep hold of it and remember you?

Mik · 22-05-2006, 09:15

aye right. cos no one else would have thought of a pencil. try and do something utterly unique.

send them a lifesize cut out of you, that they can put in the office for a month to see if you fit in.

we get loads of crazy mailers from graduate types. one made a plastercine figure of himself and put it in a box with a manual etc. another made his own lager label/packaging and stuck it around 6 bottles of stella.

still didnt give them a job like.
