This website design company wanted a fresh perspective on their brand, so they came to me. After the sketching and logo exploration I came up with a mark that implied structure as well as subtly incorporating code elements.

Jeanne Willette is an author and art historian who is pushing the field in new direction by embracing social media and blogging to expand peoples understanding of art.
I’ve designed several sites for her, as well as the covers and layout for her books.
Posters are a unique design challenge – to tell a story in a single page. It has to convey the mood or style of a movie or a band and peak the interest of the viewer enough that they want to see more. It’s quite fun to search for the right solution for each new project.
This design also often becomes the corner stone of the entire campaign, carrying through to the website, the social media presence, any related products…basically the entire brand.
Marketing & Design play a key role in the success of any creative endeavor. The Dance of Angels was an avant guarde theater piece performed in Boulder Colorado. Posters were used as promotion and also as a commemorative piece for sale at the performances. T-shirts were also for sale, and given to the cast as a thank you.
The set design was also developed as part of the branding for the piece. It gave the minimalist performance an edgy setting, and also was planned in such a way that it could be painted quickly and struck even quicker after the run was complete.

Overcoming Going Under is the story of a young man plunged into depression by the tragic loss of his fiancé struggling to come to terms with the voice in his head that he’s heard his whole life…that now seems to be betraying him.
The promotional posters for this film consist of a series of three one sheets that express the mood of the film and also hint at the confusing nature of the themes explored in it.
The website was a fun concept to develop – making the site out of the desktop of the main character. But mobile considerations have pretty much nixed the use of Flash, so a redesign is in order.
You can take a closer on the gallery page for this project. Also you can dig into the process book that takes you through the journey that brought the one sheets to life.
This is the video for the song “Blue” performed by Kevin Sandbloom. It was the debut single from his Joni Mitchell tribute album “Kind of Blue.”
The source video was not very spectacular, but after much editing, many layered tracks, and many effects the final video is pretty entertaining.

I shot and edited all the footage for this film.
