Graduation Party Invites

Back in June I was asked by a friend to design his brothers' graduation party invites. Graduation parties are a time to commend those for their academic achievements and in so I thought it only appropriate to create a design that reflected that. The layout is clean, with clear, simple information and large pictures to emphasize the importance of the graduates and their achievements.

"The Walking Dead" alternative intro

Daniel Kanemoto, a writer/director whose 1999 debut, created this animation [intro] for AMC's "The Walking Dead" series, using a variety of stills from the comic. It looks like he used After Effects for the majority of this, and it's really cool stuff. It's just a prime example of how using dynamic imagery combined with simple movement can really bring a piece to life. Check it out! 

More work!

Hey everyone!
It's a little hot out today so I'm sticking to the basement for the hottest part of the afternoon working pretty diligently on some freelance. In the meantime I'll tell you another work-related story:
While I was interning at Bolger + Battle, a local Midland marketing firm, http://bolgerandbattle.com/ , My old high school wrestling coach came in to say hi. At the time they were rebuilding their team and wanted a stronger image than just the school mascot. What he wanted was something reminiscent of the famous 'Tap-Out' logo, but at the same time something that was theirs in itself. I presented him with a few drafts but this was the final result:

What this offers is a grungy, scraped-up look at the Bullock Creek High School Wrestling Team. The logo is aggressive and dirty without being too in the way of itself. When I presented this to the team, they absolutely loved it and it found its way onto t-shirts and the team uniforms, even on some banners! I wish I had this opportunity back when I was still on the team.
