Quentin Performance

Tonight Brandon and I went out to Boonton to support and watch our good friend Quentin Fielding in his first live performance as a solo artist. We were both shocked and impressed at the venue, a small little theatre on Main St, with the stage dressed very much so to fit Quentin’s style. If you [...]

charity: water

Cool non-profit who is not only doing great things, but using great design to help achieve goals (here for founder’s story, Scott Harrison). What a way to put on what looked to be a great event to gain awareness and attract attention, all in the end leading to helping the cause, which is simply bringing [...]

yeah.. What If?

I think we can all see how this relates to the discussion at Copenhagen right now.. there should only be one debate right now, and that is what are we going to do to solve the issues at hand right now? (the, I don’t believe global warming is real and Al Gore is [...]

Crush It (review)

Just finished “Crush It” by Gary Vaynerchuk, and overall I found it to be a good read. A lot of times when I read these types of books, I find that they provide me with more inspiration and motivation than the actual learning of techniques or approaches. Don’t get me wrong, I picked up more [...]

Bro’s Back!

if we weren’t able to tell he was home from his actual physical presence, we would’ve known by the abundance of Chelsea merchandise he was able to fit in his bag.
After a 3 and 1/2 month tour of western of Europe (including Ireland, Scotland, Netherlands, Belgium, France), Adam is back from calling “home” his King’s [...]

Copenhagen

Tomorrow will mark the second week of the massive meeting taking place in Copenhagen, Denmark relating to climate change. I’ve been waiting to see what comes out of this since I read Thomas Friedman’s “Hot, Flat, and Crowded” last year during this time. The event is so monumental because it is bringing together nations across [...]

Ramstein

Who knew there was a brewery in Butler? Not I.. but there is one indeed. We’ve been getting a bit jealous seeing bro over in Europe and all the tours he’s been going on, so we thought we’d have a go at it ourself. The beer was a German wheat, with a winter brew and [...]

Another Shoot

me, frame left behind the camera. Dimitri on sound, right.
Shot again today with the same crew as Mon/Tues on the Dwell videos. This time was a bit different.. we filmed a live interview between two quite dynamic individuals (whom I will leave unnamed for the moment). We were rolling with two 5D cameras. It got [...]

Stoli Videos Online

I just became aware that the Stoli videos for Blackbook came online. I assisted on a couple of the clips. Probably not my favorite videos, but the graphics are kind of cool.. and they look pretty good.

2010 Typography Calendar

I saw these calendars on a couple of desks while at the Smart Design offices on Monday. I think they’re pretty rad and I want one. I’ve had a big fascination with type ever since watching Gary Hustwit’s documentary Helvetica. I think this would make a great Christmas gift, if there’s anyone out there searching [...]
