Old fashioned phones and bee hives

Bee hives, 1950s image of a women on the phone and buzz logo

And I bet you thought I was going to show you a hairstyle, am I right? Sorry I’ve been so silent this week, Uni has been a lot of work and I’m starting to wonder if it’s all worth it. We have these ‘mini’ tasks we have to do each week and they are more epic than mini and take so much time (remember the circles). But that story is not at all related to this post.

I rediscovered the Graphics Fairy this week, do you know it? A website devoted to free vintage images and crafty projects. I signed up to her email and had to laugh at some of the things she posted this week, they all seemed to relate to what I’ve been working on. You see I’m taking a class in advertising this semester and we have to work in teams as ‘virtual’ agencies. This is quite difficult since I’m doing the class via distance and have to depend on chat and facebook to communicate and collaborate. One of our first tasks was to come up with a name and logo for our agency, can you see the connection yet? That’s my attempt at both name and logo in the bottom right and one of the many Graphics Fairy images that came in my inbox this week was of beehives, aren’t they gorgeous? Our client brief is from a mobile phone company and we’ve all been madly researching their current campaigns, target market and product offerings and then into my inbox comes these awesome 1940’s pictures of people on phones. Now I’m trying to work out how I can use them for our project. Wish me luck!
