Animation: USATODAY Promotion

Here I was asked to conceptualize and create a broadcast quality animation extolling the virtues of advertising in USA TODAY.In this case I worked from a pre-written script.

Animation: USATODAY Autos

This animation was intended to announce the new VW Toureg in a way that took advantage of the constraints of a specific online adspace - in this case the 30p tall 'Pencil' ad space on USA TODAY's website.

Illustration: USA TODAY Beatles poster 01

I was lucky enough to be asked to create an illustration that would be featured on a poster that celebrated The Beatles. My solution was to re-imagine the King Features syndicate's Beatles animated television series circa 1969. It's them...just with more hair. (Created using Adobe Illustrator)

Vertical layout of The Beatles poster in bold color!(Created using Adobe Illustrator)

Illustration: YAK poster

I was inspired to do this poster by a Styrofoam Soviet 'Yak' toy airplane that I found at a flea market in Washington DC. I wanted to incorporate a Constructivist-leaning type design while handling the subject in a playful way. This is one of my favorite pieces. (Created using Adobe Illustrator,Specular infini-D)
