Delivery (Clients and Illustrators)

There are many many different platforms a creative person can use to deliver their work. These platforms include editorial, magazines, fashion, branding, newspapers, book covers, brochures, leaflets, posters, billboards, travel posters, advertising, corporate, graphic communication, textiles design, wallpaper, toys, animation, fashion design, installations, window displays, shop displays and interior design. A really quite simple but interesting example of using different platforms is using sound incorporated with pictures. Chris Watson records wildlife and natural phenomena then edits the recordings into a narrative. He describes this process as "putting a microphone where you can't put your ears". This work is then used in games such as Harry Potter, feature films which include The Constand Gardener from 2005 and in installations, TV and radio.
Another good example of using platforms is Julie Verhoeven. Julie has created illustrations for record sleeves, christmas cards, magazine covers, fashion and clothing design, advertising, corporate, shop exteriors and interiors, tea cups, bedlinen, packaging and jewellery. She's also experimented with moving image and murals. This is a very wide variety of platforms for just one artist. I'm personally really inspired by the work of Julie Verhoeven.
