listing to: The Rolling Stones – Sympathy For The Devil

Monday saw Telegrammes first lecture. We rambled about ourselves to teh attentive ears of Winchester school of arts's graphic design course. Big thanks go out to tutor, Tim metcalf who made us feel really welcome and relaxed enough to calm the coffee shakes i managed to pick up on the train down. The lecture focused on the pitfalls of starting a design/ilustration company straight out of art scool. Things we know all to well. Money(lack there of), creativity, clients, tax, ignorance to the world of business.... and everything we didnt know. LEARNING THE HARD WAY couldve been an appropriate title.

we created a whole bunch of unique illustrations for the talk here are a couple:

ARCTIC MONKEYS - CORNERSTONE


[gallery link="file" order="DESC" columns="5"]


Originally designed as a wallpaper for the background of a photoshoot, the design was instead used as a projection for the Arctic Monkeys 'Live Web Transmission'. We later adapted the nettles pattern for the 10" and 7" release of the above single 'Cornerstone'.

PS. If you put the sleeves side by side the pattern should tile and repeat.
