Client: Derek Russell
Information: The objective of this project was to create new logo for an upcoming podcast about the Buffy The Vampire Slayer television show. The point of the logo is to reflect the nature of the podcast. Since Buffy has been off the air for several years now, the podcast resides in a flash back to 1997 starting with the premier of the second season and working forward in the series. The logo purposely gives a nod to the movie series Back To The Future to convey that this is a flashback formatted show. The logo will be used as the websites banner. I also created a desktop wallpaper to promote the show as well.

Client: Self motivated project
Information: This was a self motivated project for my Dad’s birthday. He loves old cars but surprsingly has never been to the Woodward Dream Cruise. This year we are surprising him with a drip downtown to enjoy all there is to see. Since there is no real way to wrap the cruise up in paper for him to open, I decide to make a key chain for him and attach it to the key to my 2005 Mustang GT. Should be a great experiense for the two of us to cruise down Woodward together.

Client: Eden Foods Inc
Information: This series was a great learning experience for me. Since I was the Hockey expert in the design house, I was given a lot of creative freedom to direct the concepts for these ads.
I shot the photos, and came up with the headlines. It was great to go out and plan my own shoot. I rented a local ice rink where I grew up playing hockey, and shot hundreds of photos.
