Just messing around… (power under control)
Published September 19, 2008 Culture , Design , Grotto Madrid 1 CommentI was playing around with some different photoshop techniques. Sometimes you have to limit the trendiness when doing corporate marketing/design work. I don’t really get to play around much anymore. (Although Grotto Madrid is a GREAT outlet) It feels really good to just let some of the creative juices flow.
A lot of young designers like to throw every skill they know into one design. Not cool. I like to excert “Power under control” over every design I do.
Yoda is a perfect (geek) example of this. We all saw him fight Count Dooku: pure craziness. But Yoda doesn’t travel everywhere flying and doing flips; most days he uses a cane! He has power under control.
Thanks for reading,

P.S. Our Grotto Madrid shirts came in today! Our photoshoot is on Sunday. I’m Stoked!
I saw Kanye’s VMA preformance and, even though I’m not huge fan of the autotune/talk-box stuff, I didn’t think it was too bad. This single sounds a little different though and I’m not sure what I think yet. Let me know how you feel about it.
Click on the picture below to listen to the new single: Love Lockdown.
I just wanted to show everyone a couple of pictures that hint at what Tyler and I have been working on.
This stuff is just the tip of the iceberg as far as concepts go.
We are really busy getting ready for our photoshoot on September 21. It’s going to be great!
Please take a look and let me know what you think.
