About Me

My name is Phillip Cahall. I am a recent graduate from the University of Wisconsin - Stout. Here is just a preview of work from college and some freelance work that I have gotten to design over the years. I am looking for a creative environment where I can use my skill in Graphic Design and Photography to communicate to the world.

I not only like to design my own work, photography my surroundings, but I am also the photographer for J Murphy and Associates.

During an internship in West Virginia, working for a local zoo, one of my tasks given to me was to create a wish-book that could be distributed to local people who wanted to donate to the zoo.

This is the logo picked for a customer of mine who was starting his own business. I have been working with him to create not only this logo, the packaging of his products, the photography from his advertisements and website ideation to sell his products.



Created in illustrator using the mesh tool. Just one aspect of a mural collaborated by me and my fellow classmates.

In a time when money is scarce, sustainability is emerging, and people are trying to be more conscious about their carbon footprint. Sun water offers a product that is needed by many demographics;purified water that is extremely cheap and accessible to all. A pet (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic bottle is filled with water and set in the sun. Using a cheap reliable


Process called sodis, ultra-violet rays from the sun are used to completely eliminate drinkable water wherever the sun shines. Their emerging technology is a small device that can be slipped over any device is able to detect when the sun has purified the water so that it can be safely consumed.

This was an assignment I had in my Graphic Design II class. The objective for this assignment was to create a promotional campaign for a non-profit organization of our choice. I chose to do a campaign for the Minnesota Zoo. I created a campaign where people would donate money to the zoo and the top 10 donations would get an exclusive pass into the part after hours to see how things are run when they aren't open. These are three posters that I made to spread word about the campaign. I used photos that I had taken at my past visits to the zoo. The "Walk with the Wild" was created by me but the logo in the bottom right corner is the Minnesota Zoo's logo. I used the diamond idea because I wanted to show people all the different kinds of animals the zoo had to offer. There were many animals I didn't even include but I wanted to show as many as I could. I really enjoyed working on this project because the zoo is a place I will always enjoy going to in the years to come.


Here is a photograph that I took last summer on my trip to the Windy City, Chicago. Not only do I like Graphic Design and the visual communications of Design but taking my own photographs has also been a rewarding hobby of mine. This photograph shows the amazing cityscape of Chicago while also showing the leisure side of things.

For this assignment I had the opportunity to research a bunch of different restaurants and different types of logos that are associated with those companies. Because seafood is my favorite food I decided that theme would be good to explore further. This small scale, fine dining restaurant is set on the east coast and is a place that families like
to eat at anytime during the week.


Using Caslon Italic font I was asked to create a piece using a word along with a picture that in some way resembles the word chosen. I chose a scene that anyone who has ever dealt with an uncooperative pet can imagine.
Smoking is one of few habits that I have strong feels against. I have always felt that a person has a choice whether or not to do it themselves but I will never do it myself. For this project we were given the task to create anything we wanted in Adobe Photoshop. There were no limitations and the professor wanted us to design something that represented us in some way. Instead of having just a cigarette at the bottom and the smoke coming from that I wanted the fire to represent the many different forms that could give off smoke. The skull represents the fact that these many different aspects don't just effect the person using them but also travels through the output these produce.

Here is my start to the world of Brand Identity. For the project I had to create three different radio stations and from there create a logo for each one. The first logo I created was for a comedy radio station (WFNY) where people can listen if they are looking for a couple laughs. I used a font that was a little more fun and comedy like. The next logo I made (WSLC) was for a classical radio station where classical music is played all day. The last logo I made (WBLU) was for a Blues/Jazz radio station where people could send in different audio files of there favorite blues and jazz music.
