Gerad Taylor punks pin up

Jan 31 2011
The brief came in for posters to go along with the headlines;

“Jeepers, this is the best thing since sexting!”

and,

“Golly, I haven’t felt this good since I got poked on Facebook!”

These headlines needed help from an illustration style that paid homage to the 50′s golden era of advertising but used colours and fashion considered hip and groovy today.

Gerad Taylor immediately sprung to mind.

Gerad Taylor appreciates classical craft in everything he does whilst simultaneously thriving on modern technology and speed. The fact that he races super efficient cars on one day and then plays classical jazz guitar on another is testament to these seemingly opposite themes. It is also what lead to such a great result for this campaign as these themes are exactly what the commission required.
