BRCC Arts Party ’09

This a horizontal 11″x17″ poster I made to promote the gathering for all those with in The Ridge that contribute to the arts. Whether it be through the band, creativity, drama, stage design, speaking, graphic design, video, lighting, audio, media, etc, this event is for those people. This poster will only be used for people who are a part of those teams, and will be hung around The Ridge, but I think it’ll prove effective.

It’s a style I haven’t really dabbled into before, but I like it. It was fun to come up with the composition in a new way, plus altering ITC Avant Garde for the type setting.

If you are a part of the team, and this is the first you’d heard about it, be sure to check your e-mail for the eVite (I know i hate eVite too) and RSVP so we can have a headcount of how many to provide food for!

Oh and of course, if you get a chance, graphically what do you think of this piece? What would you have done different to achieve this style?

Luke 14:25-33

This is a motion graphics piece I did for Blue Ridge Community Church. It was a little more of an adventure than some previous ones I’ve made simple for the fact that there are so many animated elements in this one besides the typography. It brought a little more visual interest, and coupled with sound effects and my ever so excellent narrator Marilee Earle, it turned out pretty well. I say every time I have the chance to do one of these,”I wish this was my only job, because these would get amazing”. However, I suppose just a few now and then will have to do, time allowing.

Lend me your thoughts, what do you think? What would you have done differently?

So I found this quote by Louis Nizer the other day and it really peaked my interest. I suppose it’s always revolutionary in a subtle way when philosophy in its raw sense can be slimmed down to a single sentence. I think of a lot of things when I read this, but I just appreciate what he says. I work in an office with no windows, so I decided a while back to start making posters to hang on the wall in my office to bring a little bit of energy and visual appeal to its otherwise bland decor. It’s coming together, but here’s an example of one I put together this past week using, of course, the quote by Sir Nizer.

What quotes do you like? Any ideas for a good poster for the office?
