The online art shop Little Paper Planes has just recently updated the featured section I have on their site with two new items. They are the ‘United We Stand’ zine and the ‘Everyday People’ print, look out for a few more new things very soon…dont forget to stop by the One & Done Shop as well!
Did an “exit interview” a little while ago with Bijan Berahimi one of the brainchildren behind Fisk, the CalArts student run publication. Find it here and be sure to check out the other interviews as well. Some good stuff from some other recent CalArts grads.
The concept for this video was to simulate a contrast between the rugged user made animated gif graphics across the internet, and dated yet unachievable beauty advertising imagery. Add persian and arabian myspace desktop graphic influences, and the rest is history. Here are some of the designs we created to influence our animations and direction throughout the video with Maya. A link to the video can be found on our site here.

In the film Glengarry Glenn Ross, the character of Blake, played by Alec Baldwin, utters an oft-quoted line following the famous ’steak knives’ scene: “A-B-C. A-Always, B-Be, C-Closing. Always be closing, always be closing.” In the context of the film, Blake repeats this mantra so as to burn it into the minds of his underperforming sales force, reminding them that their failure to sell condos and time shares will only result in termination. It’s not so much a morale booster as it is a warning to those lacking the killer instinct required in sales. But on a grander scale, Blake is talking about selling — no matter the product, no matter the price.
I was reminded of this scene while watching a new ad campaign for Coke’s energy drink, called Burn (see video after the jump). It’s a dilemma I think about often, the fact that so much of today’s creative output is subsidized by corporate dollars, and the blurry ethical line this infusion of cash can create among those tasked to produce the work — art directors, graphic designers, illustrators, photographers, animators, etc.
KDU member and Brother, Andy Pickering has launched his latest issue of Pilot Magazine.
I was honored when he asked to feature me in one of the sections. I can’t wait to see the physical issue.
Pilot is by far my favorite next generation fashion design publication.

Have a Great Summer Everyone. Long Live the Innovators & Originators!
We reconnected to create graphics and animation for Ed Banger queen, UFFIE for her latest music video for her ADD/SUV track. Building off an Evil Knievl-esque americana theme mixed with a little peter max nod, we designed, edited and animated the video into a playful sequence of cops, races, stars and stripes.
Click here for an in depth behind the scenes of the design and animation as well as the video itself.
