I designed a T-Shirt for female rapper Priceless. I used diamonds to accentuate the ‘Priceless’ theme.

Academy Media Logo

Mz Kelly — Wed, 02 Jun 2010 20:59:06 +0000

I am on internship with Academy Media and I have been working on a remake of their logo. They are very specific with what they want so I’ve found it rather difficult to do this one as I’ve been very restricted. Their original logo is as follows:

My task was to remake the logo while keeping it as similar as possible – very difficult!

They were very impressed with this rendition of their logo. However they wanted the edges to be softer, the sparkle to be removed and lines to be placed across the logo to give the impression of light streaks. I then went on to produce the following logo.

Ny Twitter Background

Mz Kelly — Mon, 17 May 2010 07:47:27 +0000

Ny approached me, asking me to design her a Twitter background. Since designing for Ny in the past, I have built up a good friendship with the singer and was more than happy to. When designing for people, I find it really helps me if I know about the person because I think about how I can bring out their personality. Ny has a new single being released soon called ‘Born Yesterday‘ and I wanted the background to reflect the look of the video to help promote the song too. I wanted the background to be feminine and pretty but designed in a way that brought her across as a strong independent woman. Follow Ny at @NyOfficial.

Mz Bratt Support Twitter Backgrounds

Mz Kelly — Mon, 17 May 2010 07:00:14 +0000

I was inspired by a photo Mz Bratt sent me of herself for another project to create a new Twitter background for her support page @MzBrattSupport which I run. The image was taken from a Boxfresh photo shoot and I loved the bright green colour hoody she was wearing. I had a vision of a whole new vibrant green revamp for MzBrattSupport.

The background received a lot of good feedback which I am very happy about. I also created some desktop backgrounds just to experiment with my design skills.

Feel free to use as your own backgrounds too.

Ghetts T-Shirt Design

Mz Kelly — Tue, 04 May 2010 18:50:31 +0000

Ghetts is a very well known artist within the grime industry and he has a ‘Ghetts It In Gang’. When a friend of mine @ClaireBerryBear suggested to Ghetts that I design a T-Shirt with ‘Ghetts It In Gang’ written on it, Ghetts was really excited about the idea. I was really nervous to be honest as I’ve never before designed any T-Shirts but I was really excited to venture into something new. With this design I wanted to use an old style font to give it a ghetto feel but I also wanted an image to portray ‘getting the money in.’ Ghetts is over the moon with the result and so am I! Can’t wait to see it printed! Big thanks to Claire and also @georgemmason for spreading the word about me to Ghetts.

Look out for more T-Shirt designs by me coming soon!

‘About 2 B’ Competition Winner!

Mz Kelly — Mon, 26 Apr 2010 12:36:13 +0000

I was entered into a competition to design a logo for an up and coming video project run by www.bsomebody.tv called ‘About 2 B.’ I have become great friends with the people behind the site and I love how they are all about positivity and bringing through up and coming talent. The prize for winning would be payment, a B Somebody t-shirt and a video interview.

When designing this logo, I tried to keep within the theme of the site already by keeping the same B and similar font type. In order, to bring through something new to the logo, I had to try something different in terms of my design skills. I combined Autodesk Maya (3D program) with Adobe Photoshop to bring a whole new effect through on the B.

The result was this:

I was lucky enough to win the competition. You can read the blog post written about me here:

Sophie’s Promotions

Mz Kelly — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 13:51:23 +0000

I am very close friends with a girl called Sophie from Twitter. She’s only 14 years old, yet she is doing so amazingly well on her own with promoting music artists online. Artists she promotes include Ayo, Ny, Mz Bratt, R.I.O, Platnum, Priceless, Rowntree and RD. She has built up a massive reputation for promoting online and I wanted to help her out by designing the header for her website – www.sophiespromotions.co.uk. You can also follow her on Twitter here.

Here is the header I designed for her

Rio’s Twitter Background

Mz Kelly — Thu, 22 Apr 2010 14:34:36 +0000

I’ve become good friends with Rio over twitter as we’re both big N-Dubz fans and especially big Tulisa supporters. After she found out about my design work, she asked if I could design her a Twitter background. She gave me pictures of her meeting N-Dubz and Ultra and I tried to infuse these pictures with what I knew about her personality into the design. She is very happy with the result, she even quoted ‘Right now, This background, beats meeting N-Dubz right now !!!!’

Final Year Project

Mz Kelly — Fri, 02 Apr 2010 14:07:30 +0000

Using Maya, we created a prototype for a game called Toon Me. The tagline for the game is ‘Be who you wanna be! Make your dreams a reality with Toon Me.’ You choose your character and customise it, choose your character’s dream job and as you work your way up to success, you unlock more and more scenes and items to explore and experiment with!

The show reel gives you an insight into what the game could look like if it was properly put into production.

Toon Me 3D Game Prototype

I also created the package for the game. We decided upon using the Wii platform as it is more interactive and highly popular with the younger generation at the moment. Due to copyright, I had to change the name Wii to Mii etc.
