silkscreen vid

This is how I imagined Justin would make a vid for this. Was helpful to me, explained it waaaay better than the darn Speedball manual.

Lizzy+ Chuck

So for Lizzy, I am thinking of something like " love for sale". My idea is for the cd to appear like an old catalog, but the items for sale would be non corporeal things, like Love, Integrity, Morality, Conscience, etc...
Either that, or the song titles could be the things for sale(my muse, James, etc.)

As for Chuck, i keep thinking hes a man with many hats. What if I produce some for of image, out of hats? Like a blossoming flower, huge, open. Or maybe The handle of a guitar, but the tuning knobs (is that what they are called?) are hats? As for a title, I am not certain, somethign with a eference to hats. I will think on that...

heh, more

I have become obsessed with this, and fixing it.
I vote top, yes?

to space or not to space

that is the question.
I think I have spent far too much time on this, I need to get rolling onto other things. But Ive been really happy with this. I have stared at it so much, it's hard to tell if its readable anymore.

finished logo

And bam! there it is. I will keep "the design fancy of" for web use. It will drop off for business card, letterhead, and such. I am pretty happy with it, thought i am considering going back to the vector version.

hmm...

so the alphabet is finished, drawn, scanned, etc.
Now how does it look? i am not sure if the clean,polished vector is better or not.

resume, so far.

Still very much a work in progress, it's gettin there.

amazing free app for designers.

It tracks your mouse movements, clicks, etc. And generates artwork based from it. Looks really neat.

iographica.com

Lots of images on Flickr showing what it can do.

And... www.notcot.org... very much like ffffound.com

informationisbeautiful.net great source for info design and really nice examples.

the alphabet, vector-wise

is now finished. Now, to print them all out, trace them, and scan back in. if it doesn't 'work' I will resume with the vector versions. We shall see.

and more

toying with card ideas. i really like the ones with drawn stuff behind it.

so this is what I am aiming for....

Honestly, I think I am really digging this. is this better, readability wise? I have been staring at it for so long, I cannot tell anymore.
The drawn stuff is mostly a placeholder, I doodled them quick to scan them in and see how they would look, I think the curvy, organic lines compliment the blocky-ness of the typeface.

identity crisis, the usual.

so..I started these letterforms. I made them in Illustrator, now I want to print them out, trace them by hand, and scan them back in. But the treatments are how I think I will brand myself. I am really set on black/white/gray. But surprisingly, I am a little fond of something bold and adventurous like black /white/hot pink. It's fancy, I know. I may actually use helvetica too! It's crazy, I know. I also intend to draw some of those organic vine thingys I have been obsessed with as of late too, to come out of the letters/name. Any thoughts?
