Marland Lottery

Here is a Maryland Lottery commercial for Medal Madness that does a spoof on the “kiss and cry” moment of Olympic figure skaters. I designed the Olympic style graphics on the ice rink barrier and the medal moment backdrop. The graphic was printed on multiple small panels that had to match up, repeat and look like one large fluid pattern. It’s no Vancouver graphic identity, but serves its purpose. And of course I didn’t want to upstage the actor.

The Seed

Watch the animation produced by Nexus Productions

A superbly crafted animation by Johnny Kelly, depicting the life cycle of a humble apple seed, done through a mixture of stop motion papercraft and 2D drawn animation. Produced at Nexus Productions in collaboration with Goodby, Silverstein & Partners and Adobe to showcase the new features in version four of the Creative Suite package. The brilliantly contrasted, futuristic soundtrack by Jape.

A fresh and mesmerizing result.

Quarterlife Party

My friends Ryan and Brent recently asked me to illustrate a logo for the re-launch of their music blog Quarterlife Party. They have some nice features on the site, including a nifty flash-based music player and built in calendar for shows in the Baltimore-DC region.

What I enjoy the most about the blog is the abundance of bands and genre they write about. It’s hard to come by these days when trends and aesthetics dominate the headlines.
