Virgin Money App Online

Virgin Money App in use in the Edinburgh Lounge

I think all photographers have noticed decrease in full bleed newspaper adverts. Clients are simply going for more hard sell, less image branding. Today I’m doing more online stuff and recently I’ve been shooting for Virgin Money UK and their new app. I thing this is where we’re heading. In the next 10 years we’ll be seeing more online and less print. The print is not disappearing, but it will become more of a side product vs. the online media.

In 1995, David Carson wrote the book End of Print. Today we still have print, newspapers, magazines and books. It is just different experience we’re having
