Stare

Cassidy Stanton, deep in contemplation, and her 1000 year stare.

Also seen here is one of the little lizards indigenous to the Yute region. They tend to wander into the base, from the open desert, and enjoy the warmth some nights, or the plentiful moisture left in puddles in the showers, to the shock of newbies.

A set of applicaiton icons I made for Faronics.

The top one is a photo form my wedding day, which I was asked to make into a portrait of my wife's grandparents as a anniversary surprise.

Below, you can see my wife and her flowers taken out, myself removed, grandpa's head taken from a different photo, their clothing fixed to fill gaps resulting from other edits, and background greenery filled in where needed, including to cover up the unsightly window. I'm pretty proud- this got done in just a few hours before the party.

Given to patients at the GF Strong rehab centre after an injury, this guide answers a lot of questions. While I was a patient there, I was asked to design them a new cover.

The photos used in this were from GF Strong's media archives, which were trippy to browse, seeing long-time staffers from when they were younger.

I also designed the product logo seen at the top of the poster. This game won a ton of awards around the world, but alas, your marketing stunk.

Faronics recently underwent a 're-branding'. They realized the logos for their software didn't look like it fit the company logo. These two logos, created to be "the same, but different", have a drier, more corporate look, and capitalize on the color blue to fit a 'frozen' theme.

The deep freeze logo has the word 'deep' sunken under the blue bar, symbolizing being stuck under compacted ice. The freeze X logo has some fun with the letter X... who can resist playing with an X at the end of a name?

These logos only remained in use for a handful of years before they did another image restructuring.

Originally based on a precise idea from the client, and a photo they liked. This scene was entirely constructed on the computer, and bears a striking resemblance to the original photo.

The final image was actually much larger than this, designed to be printed about 9 feet wide, and as such, was of excruciating detail. For bandwidth reasons, the 'large' version is of course, much smaller. I just wish I had gotten the chance to the the full size printout, but it DOES exist in their storage lockers somewhere.....
