10000 RedBubble Hits

Today saw the 10,000th visit to Dolly Digital’s RedBubble page. We’ve also sold quite a few t-shirts. But 10,000 visitors got us thinking:

If Dolly Digital’s RedBubble page was a town, we’d be Newport.

Mmmm, that’s not too impressive (no offence meant to Newportonians).

If Dolly Digital’s RedBubble page was a football stadium we’d be a quarter of Elland Road.

Mmmm, that’s not too impressive either…

In anatomy, each neuron in the human brain is estimated to connect to 10,000 others.

That’s more impressive, but maybe it’s something we shouldn’t really be shouting about…

ExxonMobil OSPAR 2010

For the second consecutive year Dolly Digital have designed and produced ExxonMobil North Sea’s Environmental OSPAR Statement. This is a legislative requirement from Government Agency DECC (Department of Energy and Climate Change). The statement is available for all to download and not only documents the environmental impact of drilling in the North Sea but also the initiatives and procedures put in place by ExxonMobil to ensure that there is as little detrimental effect to the environment and wildlife as possible.

An understanding of corporate literature is essential. Also, an ability to process statistical information and present it in a manner that is easily read is all important such a project.

This year, the literature will be printed in larger numbers in order to meet the demand of corporate interest around the globe and will feature at Offshore Europe 2011.

 

 

 

Bytesize Logo Design

We were approached by Jamie Barclay of Bytesize to create a new logo for his company. Initial discussion took place through ABNCommunity. Jamie was keen to update his logo from a generic design supplied by a printing company to a new, fresh and unique logo.

Jamie required a logo to represent his business and after some discussion he wanted a logo in a ‘Phoenix-from-the-flames’ style, as a metaphor for repairing PCs that have died. A great idea, however, we thought that flames and broken PCs wasn’t the right sort of vibe! These discussions did instigate the choice of colours, using a fire-y colour palette.

This logo will hopefully help usher in a new and vibrant chapter to this young business. Keep your eye on Bytesize, they are a company going from strength to strength.

Check them out at their website or Facebook pages.

The Gaffer – In The Sun

Last week we joked about making the National Press when the above design was featured in The Alloa Advertiser.

This week it happened. On 23rd June Dolly Digital was featured in The Scottish Sun and The Daily Record.

The tee shirt can be viewed (and purchased) from RedBubble.

Dinky Doo Dolls

A side-project for a friend of Dolly. The design was used as a temporary tattoo for the group as they took part in a fundraising event.

Alison MacAuley and a group of friends (Dinky Doo Dolls*) done the Edinburgh Moonwalk this weekend. And it’s still not too late to sponsor them. They have raised a phenomenal amount of money – over £3000!

*The name ‘Dinky Doo Dolls’ has nothing to do with Dolly Digital, even if we do love a bit of alliteration!

COMING SOON… ABERDEEN FC ‘ICONS AND HEROES’ CALENDAR 2011 – 2012

In the time it takes you to read this, John Hewitt had already scored the quickest goal in Scottish Cup history.

Here at Dolly we are fed up with football club calendars. As soon as the calendar is released, it is out of date. Especially in today’s climate of mercenary footballers, chasing the £££’s. No doubt the footballer featured in August will have already left.

Above is a teaser of a project we are working on. A calendar that celebrates iconic moments of Aberdeen FC. A calendar that runs from July through to June. The series of images will also be available as t shirts from RedBubble.

We will, of course, post ‘sneeky-peeks’ as the designs are completed.

 

Dolly Digital’s Billboard

We’ve always dreamed of having our name up in lights!

If you want your name (or logo, or photo, or anything really) up in lights too, then get in touch at info@dollydigital.co.uk and we can discuss this and any other design work you may need.
