Nick Hand's Graphic Design Portfolio
BP
This work began as a motion graphics piece that fell through, so I continued on with the project creating a mock print ad for a non-existent BP Ad Campaign.
Seasonal Silhouette
This piece was created for a class where we had total creative freedom to work on any design project we could come up with. I struggled for a theme and finally decided upon the color scheme seasons.
This is the final result.
Grand Piano
Grand piano created in Cinema 4D.
Tintern Abbey
Still graphic created for a motion graphics piece based on the new CD by a band named "Tintern Abbey."
Work In Progress
Educational piece inspired by redesigning the cover of the book "Work In Progress" by Lisa Ede.
Hell Cafe
A mock magazine ad for a made up restaurant called hell cafe.
Final Presentations
3' x 2' poster created as an ad campaign for final presentations of graduating students in my degree.
Newsweek
A mock magazine created for a layout project that also included 10 pages of ads and articles.
Break the Line
Experimenting with 3D illusions created in 2D programs, while breaking the 2D field of view.
iPod
Another mock magazine ad for Apple's iPod, created entirely in 2D vector graphics using Illustrator.
PXR4
An Illustrator recreation of the Toneworks PXR4 recording studio created entirely in 2D vector graphics.
Rebirth
Somewhat of a random art piece created during a month of studying the history of visual communications.
Arctic
Ideas on paper for a look and feel of a design company that could startup here in Alaska.
Julz Naturals
Julz Naturals is an online product display and shopping cart for a local beauty supply reseller. The product shots will soon be updated with professional lightbox product shots, hopefully rounding off the slick style and feel of the site.
Harvest Motors
Harvest Motors is a midsized used car lot located in Palmer, Alaska. The entire vehicle inventory is available online, and an admin section allows the client to add, remove and edit vehicle listings.
Alaska's Harvest
Alaska's Harvest is a local bed and breakfast with an amazing view and astounding facilities. One of the highest ranked bed and breakfasts in the state. Award winning site.
Angler's Bar & Grill
As a project in school we had to redesign a site for a local restaurant, and incorporate some elementary php scripting, and this was the result. Small team project.
Inkwell Entertainment
Inkwell Records is the recording studio of a buddy of mine who lives in Florida. Site construction is in future plans, but for now this is its entirity.
Alaska
A project to mostly practice basic CSS and XHTML, creating a site based on the town we grew up in.
FarCry
Flash project for a class assignment to create a site in flash entirely devoted to a game and bring out the game's theme and feel throughout the design of the site. This is a pretty processor intensive site, and may be laggy to many viewers. GameArt is property of FarCry, not my own.
Valley Harvest Church
I just recently launched the new valleyharvestchurch.net site. The redesign is part of a rebranding of the church, which you can see in the business cards in my stills section. The site is still under development and will continue to be improved as time goes on, but I still think it is worth showing off!
BuyAlaska
BuyAlaska.com is a government funded project that I designed for my employer, GeoNorth. The database/framework and implementation was done by GeoNorth's development team, while the entire front-end design was my own, of course working with and through redesigns with the client and my boss. The project included 6-8 redesigns and a complete array of extremely detailed mockups and layout designs. A great project from beginning to end, again, this is a team project owned by and under the GeoNorth name.
