Cut and Paste [ International Design Competition ]

Posted: October 19th, 2009 | Author: dave | Filed under: Main News | No Comments »

Friday night was a very good night. Shape and friends ventured into Manhattan for the Global Championships of Cut and Paste [ http://www.cutandpaste.com/ ] What an excellent night of meeting new artists, seeing fresh work, and learning how other people work. The trickiest thing about being an artist is know whether or not your doing something the “right way” or the “wrong way”. Truth be told there is no right or wrong. When working in art and design it’s whatever way gets you from A to B. However there are some great techniques we call all universally adapt that make our jobs that much better. Someday we will all have Wacom Cintiq Tablets… Someday.

Here are some snipe shots of Friday’s Event :

Photo Shoot

Posted: March 12th, 2009 | Author: dave | Filed under: Main News | No Comments »

Its official, I think we all fell asleep immediately after our photo shoot because we all suffered some sort of radiation exposure. 

Lesson of the week: 2500 watts of pure tungsten light will give you radiation poisoning.

Thought Process…

What I want to be and what I am right now are not syncing too well.. in hopes that things picks up soon, a quote.

“With every year that came to pass, more clouds appear until the sky went black, and now there’s no sunlight, no sunlight. You dissapeared with the same speed, the idealistic things I believed. The optimist died inside of me.”

P.S. I love David, Mike and Ralph (being the only girl of SH4PE I think that was needed)

“the starting point is never to make something ugly, or to make it hard to read, or to make it award-winning or to make it pretty, the starting point is to try to interpret something” –D. Carson
