Moving away from InDesign at my current place of work and prioritising Illustrator, there were a number of features that I struggled to replicate initially with Adobe seeing fit to use different commands, locations and methods across their Creative Suite. Text Wrap is one such feature and, though used infrequently, can be useful in providing a little artistic flair to large bodies of type.
Rounding out another year, besides Spotify Wrapped, it is the play statistics from Nintendo that I anticipate most. Charting which games I played most and when causes memories from across the year to come flooding back as I connect each gaming experience with a time and place. Let’s dive in!
Having featured the studio in multiple blog posts already, the opportunity to witness Universal Everything’s creations up close at regular haunt 180 The Strand was too hard to pass. Dragging my sister along for company, my excitement was palpable as we entered the exhibition space to discover the wonderful creatures contained within.
I’ll be honest, Gangs of London is not a good name – it’s boring and generic. Thankfully the show and key art is anything but, the latter being what drew me into watching the show in the first place – certainly not the terrible title. Created in-house at Sky Creative, the key visuals for both seasons perfectly capture the characters, themes and mood of the show.
Another year, another Wrapped. Once again Spotify demonstrate that they’ve been listening as we’ve been listening, to reveal everything we want to know (and perhaps don’t – those guilty pleasures!) about our 2022 year of music.
