Alister Coyne
I’ve always been interested in connecting with people. For the past 10 years I’ve been making connections with people in so many different ways, most of them online. For me online was a platform of equality, I could connect with anyone regardless of race, country, time-zones or disability. Being hearing impaired meant that I could see, hear what everybody else was doing. Suddenly I had a platform where I could engage with everybody, it’s no wonder that I ended up working in digital.
As a freelance consultant for the last six years, I’ve worked for numerous agencies in Edinburgh, London, Melbourne, Sydney & Auckland. In Edinburgh I journeyed into the world of SEO to get a casino website number 1 on Google, no mean feat. In London I created the largest digital campaign in the history of Yahoo! with a series of rich media banners that was very broadband friendly. In Melbourne I ate a mountain of Chupa Chups working on the account for three years. In Sydney I helped to launch Virgin Atalantic to the world and in Auckland I’ve taken Toyota into a whole new digital space with their campaign ‘Believe’.
I love digital, who wouldn’t? Just because I’m mostly online it doesn’t mean I never venture into the real world. Get me in for a coffee and a chat and I might even mention social media, Twitter or what I had for breakfast.

+1 for the Monthly WIP then. Whilst having an individual thread for each piece of work may fill up the forum, I'm not convinced it will increase discussion. And yeah, mega thread was bad.
@hairycow - nice stuff. Did you shoot specifically for that execution?
Anyone ever printed stamps before?

Feels sinister, what's the thinking behind it?
Your work on The Paper Fox shows that you can capture the nuance of emotion via the animals, you don't get the same with this logo.
Did you take any design job after uni?

I worked in a timber mill for a year. It sure makes you appreciate having a job in my chosen career.
