Portfolio Update

June 7th, 2009

legendcard2Good news, I’ve uploaded some new content into the design section under print & identity. There’s some of everything in there, posters, logos, illustrations, and a business card. I’ve had a lot of western work come through. Something I didn’t think I’d end up doing, but I’ve really enjoyed the process. There’s a lot of style and history in the western realm that I hadn’t really worked with before. Great typography, different color pallets than I’m used to and a lot of excellent textures.

I have a couple websites, a brochure, and a t-shirt design due in the next week. So look for another update mid June.

As always, thanks for stopping by.

Feb wallpaper & update

February 9th, 2009

February wallpaper is now up. Took me an extra few days to get something I was happy with. It’s titled “Inspiration”, titled for all the great typography that’s out right now. I’m also very interested in the use of textures. This one is obviously a natural texture, but vector patterns and old tapestry’s are striking my fancy as well. I think it’s maybe because I’m tired of looking at smooth, flawless gradients and fills. Everything is too perfect, there’s a lack of humanity to a lot of it, no feeling. Give me a letterpress or silkscreen print over a glossy magazine any day. Anyway, that’s my soap box… perhaps give it some thought on your next project.

There’s new work in the “Design” section under “Print” and “Identity”. Feel free to leave a comment and let me know what ya think.

Inspiration Compile

January 12th, 2009

serveimageAlright so it’s time for another inspiration compile. First up is the Behance Network which includes the recently released “Served” sites. I hit up Behance on a daily basis. There’s so much great work to be seen your head will spin with ideas. The diversity is great, you’ll see things that you may never have known were possible, or ever thought to try.

I just setup my own portfolio account over the weekend. Check out my first project here, and if you like it give me a thumbs up (appreciation).

In addition to Behance are the “Served” sites. Here’s a link to the “About” page, however… I’d just click to an area of interest and start looking around.

Here you’ll find great examples of type, type experiments, found type, etc… Typography’s really big right now, if ya hadn’t noticed. Stop here to stay in the with the latest.

photographyserved Photography Served
There’s a large variety of work here. Everything from documentary to fashion.

motiongraphicsserved Motion Served
Honestly I’m not too much into motion graphics at the moment, so I haven’t spent much time here. I’ve listed it because the other sites have so much good… that this one couldn’t go wrong.

industrialdesignserved Industrial Design
Great concept work here… furniture, snowmobiles, motorcycles, electronic devices. This page reminds me a lot of what might be found on NOTCOT.

fashionserved Fashion Served
As a photographer who works with models quite frequently, this site is invaluable. I spend a lot of time on this site reverse engineering lighting setups, getting location ideas, and positioning setups. Definitely worth your time.

New New New

It’s that time of year for resolutions and what not. I’ve already laid the ground work for some of mine, and I’m excited to move forward. There’s going to be some apparel stuff, a ton of photography, and something with a lot of layout involved (semi-secret project). I’ll post about everything as it’s completed, so grab that rss feed or add me as a friend on twitter

To start off I’m going to have a new desktop wallpaper set up for every month. If you check out the downloads section you’ll see I’ve already posted January’s. If ya like it or hate it let me know in the comments.

The desktops won’t always be designed by me, I’ll be working with some designers and photographers. By the end of the year we should have an amazing pictorial calendar, with some great eclectic work.

Lots to come, Happy New Year to ya!

Photo update | Flickr

July 15th, 2008

Small update of photography. Unfortunately it’s not posted here, you’ll have to head on over to my Flickr page.

The new pics are of Amanda, who’s just starting out as a model. We had a fun shoot in the studio, then did a few out in the abandoned parking lot next door. My fav shot is the one here in the post, it’s quite the gaze.

Also check out the new pictures of Shay. We set up a rock themed shoot… and Shay put in the energy. She’s awesome to work with, if you do any kind of fashion photography in Utah you’ll see her, and I hope these shots can show you a little of why.
