New Poster - Typography Mania!

I just finished the poster for the second annual Highland Jazz Festival.  For this one I wanted to go with a more typography-driven design.  I wish I could go to the show.  Bobby Shew is the man, and apparently Jeff Coffin plays with two saxes at once!

ScholarsSearch tutorial online!

Here it is at last, citizens.  Featuring the voice talents of Jeremy Stiborek and the jubilant acting of Mitchell Wright and other sundry folk, it's pretty exciting.  It's also the first BYU Library tutorial available in HD, so all you videomongers with big screens can check it out in all it's glory.

Corporate Presentations

Beleza Do Mar
This summer I interned at Excend Capital, a private equity firm in Salt Lake City.  Though my work there consisted of screening and establishing relationships with capital partners, I had the chance to do the occasional design project.  I created these corporate presentations from pictures and information we received from the Brazilian and Chilean firms looking to raise capital.  I'm particularly proud of the fact that I did it using only the Windows XP system fonts (I couldn't install any new fonts because I didn't have the admin rights).  If some of the tables appear out of place, it's because I took them straight from the docs we received.  Because the presentations were sent to potential capital partners after a non-disclosure agreement was in place, all the names, financials, and other identifying information have been altered or removed.  One thing that has not been changed is my estimation of the ridiculously amazing beaches in Sergipe and my desire to have a house there once I'm rich and famous.  Thanks to Greg Rockwell, principal at Excend for allowing me to put these up.

Graduation Announcements

I wish I could say I was making my own graduation announcements, but alas, these are for my little sister's high school graduation.

New Poster Design!

I did this poster for the Highland Jazz Festival.  When it gets as big as the Montreal Jazz Festival, I will be remembered as the designer of their first poster, and then I will be famous!  It was reported that Wycliffe Gordon, one of the featured artists at the festival, really liked the poster and the brick background in particular.  I was going for an old jazz club look, like it might be from a place like the Village Vanguard or something.  Thanks Wycliffe!

Library Poster

Pictures from Mars Pathfinder + Apollo missions + Atacama Desert + Oregon lavafield + way too many hours = acceptable lunar surface.  I created everything but the text in Photoshop.

For those unfamiliar with the BYU library, here's a picture:

Movie Poster!

At last I have finished the poster for the Studio 79 production "A Dame a Dozen" which has been hailed by critics as "awesome" and "the best neo-noir production in the history of cinema or even the world."  To see the film go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0cu9A5XgWI.

Young Sparrows

I designed this with scalability in mind, specifically with the option to blow it up large enough to cover the side of a Boeing 747.  It was going to be a template for the paint job of a corporate jet for my roommates and I, but in times of economic crisis corporate jets are generally looked down upon so we scrapped our original plan and hung it in our living room instead.

The best sectional shirt ever

This is the T-shirt graphic for the 2008 BYU marching band trumpet section shirt.  I did it as a collaboration with the great Landon Scott Sperry III.  Nothing captures the values and ethics of trumpet players like one of their own shooting flame from his horn while mounted on a savage beast.  They thought it was rad.
