World Cup Heroes Postcards 2010

After a doodle of gnarled bunion Wayne Rooney proved popular in the office, I created a set of seven ‘World Cup Heroes’ postcards to coincide with the huge anticipation of the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa. The postcards were released in stages into Boomerang postcard racks in cinemas, health clubs and universities across the UK. It turns out that my careful selection process was blown out of the water as none of these ‘heroes’ performed to their true potential during the tournament. Then again, it would have been a pretty strange set of pre-tournament cards that consisted of Diego Forlan, Thomas Müller, Asamoah Gyan and Paul the Psychic Octopus.

Goals Media Brochure 2010

This A5 landscape brochure is one of a series of promotional pieces for Boomerang Media’s various advertising environments in 2010. This one highlights the benefits of advertising within Goals 5 a-side soccer centres during the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa, yet without encroaching under the rigorous copyright blanket laid over the event.

Crouch Voucher 2006  To celebrate the mechanical crane fly’s special goal celebration, I created a Peter Crouch/St George inspired postcard that was released before the 2006 World Cup footybag tournament. Sadly, the dance was somewhat lacking during the contest.
