Si Scott

Si Scott is UK’s famous graphic designer from Leeds. He left school at the age of 16 to study a BTEC Art & Design course in Graphic Design in Leeds College and then he was studying a foundation in Visual Communication. Before he was going to continue studying a degree in Graphic Design in Buckinghamshire University, he had to stay in London for 2 to 3 years to continue working on a number of different small design & his own projects in graphic designs.

His designs are based on typography; he starts to think of ideas to create a font & shapes of a letter & draws it on papers. He then starts to play around with different page layouts & uses a fine liner to add in details & effects turning his design into an illustration. His design gets bigger when he scans it on computer at 125%, when he decreased his design to the actual size he can make it very crisp & clean.

His drawing, type and design give him ideas to create an illustration of his typography; he also has inspiration that comes constantly by listening to music while working on his design. He listens to the lyrics of the music carefully & uses words from it to create an illustration.

He made friends with Kerry for a few years in London and always said will do something together & decides to set up their own studio together. But when they are both busy with their own work they haven’t had time to really concentrate on the illustration 'We Are Bitch'. But they will hopefully get a chance to work together a bit more in the future.
