The square of London that I had to observe and spot a opportunity was the southbank. Surrounded by new and high cultured galleries and shops there is a area of wasted public space called the ‘Undercroft’ that the skateboarders have made home over the past years. Some people view them as vandals, others, performance artists. Why aren’t the nimble tricks of the skateboarders of London’s southbank valued as much as the dancers who perform in the theaters over their heads? So I have created a exhibition poster to address the issue that skateboarding is a performance type art and not vandalism as so many of the public perceive it to be. .

So taking advantage of this belief we created a line of products taking the endorsements to the extreme.
The brief was "The Tipping Point" based on a book by Malcom Gladwell. Working with the very talented Sam Ford we decided to create a video blog of how he has been pushed too far by life and everyone in our graphics class (including our tutor Zelda Malan) over trivial things. A good watch.
