I added to this picture myself.
View from the escalator. Note the old man dressed in the girls’ sailor suit.
Our location – West Hall 1 Ground Floor F-96
Everything coming apart at the end. Two fantastic days!
Our spot – F-96. Or “F-uck 69″, as one of our Japanese friends dubbed it. Good mnemonic device, that one.
Crowds on the way home.
FINISHED.
Two fantastic designers we met, Phil (NZ) and Pete (Aus)
My pictures really don’t do justice to the scale of this thing. IT. IS. HUGE.
Thank you again to all our friends in Japan for visiting, and to Caroline McCurdy for becoming a part of my mad plan to be an exhibitor. She features in some of this collection of Design Festa photos, and her work can be found at http://www.carolinealexandramccurdy.com/
HELLO NEW FRIENDS!
Some images from the night I quickly snapped with my phone. I was shortlisted in the typography section of the Create Design Awards. It was an amazing night out at the Forum, with dancing comedians, DJ’s, loads of free hooch, but most importantly, amazing design work by people at the top of their game. Still honoured to have been shortlisted!
Little bit added on, hope you’re enjoying it so far!

So I’ve tidied a touch and added bits, but it’s still a rough work. Enjoy anyhow!

So after trying many times to get a decent .mov to upload here on my mac, and finding it riddled with artifacts, I’ve gone the path of putting it back onto my old super-slow PC and exporting the .mov which seems to be working.
I hope you can see what I’ve done so far with no problems, if so, it means I can finish the video!

So there’s some little flaws with this one, as Flash was being a bit crazy and leaving artifacts/lagging etc. Nigel (THANKS NIGE!) played around with some settings and exports for me, and although this is neither complete as an animation, nor the best one he produced, it still has the sound and most of the components. Going to have to re-export all over again when I’ve added more to the actual Flash file. But anyhow, enjoy the seizure-inducing joy!
