Flashback Records
Flashback Records from Finland, commissioned me to create some album covers for a few of their artists. Flashback produces forgotten Italo Disco track from the golden era of the 80's.

for Click 3X
I was given an opportunity to help promote PBS Arts Fall Program.
BET Rebrand
Styleframes and Print.
for Interspectacular
In this rebrand we decided to brighten up the overall look of BET, whose previous branding was quite dark and heavy. An assortment of bright colors was made to feel bigger and full of life by balancing whites, gloss, and modern bold fonts. All of these elements helped to give the network a contemporary pop feel. In an attempt to further push the coherency of the brand elements of the BET's Chevron Logo were used subtly throughout all of the collateral.
Boards for a mobile spot.
These were really just for fun. Created after a discussion about 70's Broadcast Graphics.
Pines Party
I was commissioned by We Came In Peace to concept the graphic branding for a Pines Party Production. The original name of the party was "Bedtime Stories" but changed to "Once Upon a Pines Party" later into the project. The theme behind the party was fairy tales, so there were many elements that borrowed from Medieval art and design while remaining modern. A dark element was included for the website to create a sense of adventure and mystery before the print collateral was rolled out. Many different concepts were developed and produced and I have just included my favorites.
VOLXVI Icons
VOLXVI is a series of mobile magazines. They commissioned me to design a series of icons representing each of the magazine brands. The individual magazines have different themes so the solution to ground them into a coherent whole was that the various icons needed a similar size and perspective. Since the magazines were designed to be viewed on a mobile app, the buttons were given the same look as many iphone applications.
Gig Posters
Gig Posters have always been a major inspiration to me. In fact the posters I made as a kid for local shows as well as creating zines where probably the two biggest factors in my decision later in life to become a graphic designer.
Recently I was contacted by my friend Joey Breakdown to develop a poster for an upcoming event and the only direction I was given was to make it inspired by they early 1980's. I've always been a big fan of the neo deco stylings used in early hip hop flyers so used this opportunity to make an Homage the period.
Luke Roberts contracted me to make a poster for him last summer. His haunting crooning evoking a feeling of travel through small towns on a train, inspired me to take an image of a place caught in time and add a stylized haze that displaced this world into the hot heat of an August show in New York.
2010 MTV Movie Awards
Storyboard pitch for 2010 Movie Awards.
In collaboration with BEMODERN
for Mantra.
With the popularity in 3d in film the brief asked to used 3D elements without being filmed in 3d. The solution was to go with a low-fi Viewmaster for the imagery. This allowed us to illustrate the point and a way to bring in alternating clips for the movie awards
Evelina
Interactive Design
The brief called for creating a site that was both modern and yet warm, familiar, and comfortable, in many ways matching the food.
Custom Type
Alphabattle up over at LetterCult.
I've always had an obsession with custom type and have always wanted to create a stylized alphabet, but it seemed like a daunting task. That is why I jumped at the opportunity to publish the work as I went with lettercult. Having the timeline gave me the push I needed to complete this alphabet.
Summer of Solvate
Solvate is an agency for the freelance community. They commissioned me to design their summer promotional facebook splash and canvas page.
Current TV
Style boards for Current TV
for Manhattan Born.
The brief called for creating a black and white environment and text that builds in drama as the scene progresses.
Show Us Your Type
Custom Type Illustration for Neue.

BET.com Concept
Concept for BET.com rebrand.
for Interspectacular
The style and layout was developed to compliment the rebrand that we had created for both the on-air and printed graphics. So a continuation of bright colors, fonts, and gloss can be seen throughout.

Dream Big
Illustration for USA BY DESIGNERS.
USA By Designers created a forum for designers to interpret what their vision of the USA. I decided to create an image that re-imagined the patriotism, americana kitsch, and optimism that seem to run through the spirit of the United States.
Style Caster & Covergirl
Style Frames for Kneeon.
The brief called for creating a pop art inspired promo. So of course Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein were heavily referenced for the mood and look of the boards.
