If you haven’t already, you can see my latest mock on YouTube. I’ve been working on this on and off since the end of last year, it’s basically an idea for graphics for ITV regional news to bring them in line with the national titles and music. I created this in Carrara, the astons in LiveMotion and remixed the music in GarageBand.

Over the past few weeks I’ve bookmarked portfolios that stand out to me, some of these sites have some really interesting pieces of work that you might take inspiration from.
Gfx8 – Some of my favourites here are the Cancer poster design, the digital art gallery, and Knightmare.
Saffron – Lots of interesting stuff from Saffron, particularly like the work for Lloyd’s, Bankinter, Rompetrol, Banco Deuno and Indra.
The Small Stakes – The designs here are very simple, I bet they look great printed.
Andre Augusto – This site has an interesting design in itself, and although some of the work looks a bit “web templatey” there are nuggets of inspiration here. I like the logo mark and typography for Caffè Digital.
Definitely Something – This website really stood out to me, obviously quite a successful business but some of their work isn’t up to much. Why feature it here? I quite like the pretty shapes in the header… 
Newlyn – Newlyn created the new “friendlier” Sky logo as well as many other well-known logos. Their site is worth a look for some inspiration.
