Communication is a Virus (Contract)

Jonny Finch

Why have you chosen to work with your creative partner? What are your aims?

Hazel We have similar ways of approaching work and we are both very dedicated. Jonny has an illustrative side to his work which I would really like to use in some projects.

What are your specific areas of creative interest in this brief?
Jonny My specific areas of creative interest lie within hand drawn illustration and type, or producing any original artwork which can then be scanned in and digitally manipulated. Other interests are digital typography and photography.
