We have recently completed a project for Ringspun Clothing working on photoshoot production and design for there Autumn/Winter 2011 sales look-books.
To minimise design time we worked on location completing image post production and designing books for both the girls and boys clothing ranges on the fly. This worked really well for us, with the client, photographer, model, clothing designers and graphic designers etc all in one room decisions were made quickly and pending a few hours of tweaks the next day we were done.
