Nick Bax- Human Studios
Nick Bax created a website called humanstudio.com, which started off making films and animations. He worked for a company called Designers Republic which was a graphic design workplace. After that, he worked on projects with many different bands as well as developing applications for smartphones. The Human Studio company has worked on many projects, one of the recent projects was branding for a new fashion company called Fitriani, which had to be done without even seeing the clothes first. This first project was completed in around 3 months. The company does lots of media work for the University of Sheffield, not only designing the prospectus but also currently on the Universities website. This is lots of animation and videos to make the website more interesting and interactive. The company made a digital catalogue to play host to their work, this is like an online exhibition to attract business to their site, this was called "The Art of Sci Tec). The company has also made a 3D gallery called "Computer Love" displaying many pieces of artwork, many features on the gallery are interactive to try and make the viewer feel like they are in the area. There are also sound effects to give the viewer depth perception. They are currently undergoing a project for the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, this would be in Sao Paolo, it would play host to many virtual banners and many other football related pieces. 

This is a completed piece of graphic design made by the Human Studio company. It is for a new fashion company called Fitriani. The company were given the task without seeing any products. This is an excellent piece of graphic design as the products designed show class and elegance which is what the Fitriani brand wanted to put across. The simplistic yet fashionable black and white design, accompanied by a serif font gives a classic and contemporary look to the design

Also it is clever as the G and P look like earphones, this is a clever feature as it is a music production company.
