I recently came across this video, and seeing as how I really like Tom Waits and I really like custom type I figured I’d post it on the blog. It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything on here.
I also just found out about this amazing online service called GrooveShark - such a cheesy name but an awesome service. Basically you can find (almost) any song you’re thinking of instantly and add them into a playlist on the fly that will be saved under your account name if you ever want to listen to it again. You can also search other peoples playlists, search artists and listen to all the songs that are available from them, so forth and so on.
I recently came across a brilliant set of photography & photoshop artwork from Peter Funch that has such great concept and execution! I wonder how he did them. I was thinking maybe he set up a tripod in one location for a week straight, taking photos when they fit into the theme, then merged them together?
I recently got some business cards printed up and I’m pretty happy with the results. The only problem (which of course I didn’t notice until I’d paid for the cards and taken them home) is that they didn’t crop on the bottom/top crop marks very accurately so there is too much space between the bottom line of text and the bottom of the card. They’re printed on a pretty generic card stock (100 lb.) using giclee printing (that’s a fancy word for cheap ol’ digital printing) so all things considered they turned out pretty well.
