2011 has been an immense year for three29design. Here’s why:

The Full Metal Jacket piece I created was chosen to feature in the digital Stanley Kubrick exhibition which ran alongside the Paris Exhibition. I also had several posters I created picked up by The Picmix Store and sold.

Locally, three29design has gained exposure, seeing as we did things the other way round by concurring overseas before the local area. I also was asked to work with my local Peugeot garage – this happened via twitter, so lets all bow to the mighty twitter and it’s powers.

On top of that, on December 2nd I won South Cheshire Chamber’s Young Business Person of the Year award sponsored by Bentley Motors. To have such a huge company pick my name to win the award was just amazing, thank you to Bentley and SC Chamber! I have 9 more years to enter for this award so let’s see how next year goes :P

I was involved in the artwork for Australia’s Heatwave Festival which will take place in January. What an awesome way to kick off the year. A bus has been driving around with my design on it, as well as a plug for the website, always good! That bus will also be home to Tech N9ne for a short while… I am a fan so that was pretty cool. There will be a fair few Billboards going up around Melbourne with my artwork on it (and logo) along with large format two color posters. This is pretty awesome, especially those on the line up are Kid Cudi, Tech N9ne, Obie Trice, D12 and more!! And this Festival isn’t happening in just one city, it’s moving all the way around Australia.

I was on local radio quite a few times, speaking about design the first time round, social media the second time then a mix of the two on the other shows. This was quite big for me, because I am shy and I’m not great at speaking, I’m an email and text person! Nerve-racking indeed, but it wasn’t that bad. So, thank you Redshift. In January I will doing my first exhibition stand at one of the Hub’s networking events too :)

I saw my work featured on various Kano + Mikey J videos – totally didn’t notice this for months but when I finally did it put a smile on my face. My first Halloween giveaway was successful and made the recipients smile which is always a plus. Many more in the future ladies and gents! Now, the iPad… I said I’d never buy one however, it eventually became clear it would be handy to take a portfolio around with me, so I welcome one into the business.

On top of those, I have gained many new clients, along with working with the clients who constantly return to work with me. Thank you guys :) Keep bringing me awesome, imaginative briefs in 2012!
