The Scarecrow Foundation

Just launched the scarecrowfoundation.org. It's in support of an awesome cause, to help cure hunger in America. Check out the site here!

Latitude 35!

RED ON RED is soon to become a special fan (investor) of the resturtant Latitude 35 in market square. Doing so we have offered our services to help out with a great foundation that is run by those that are involved with Lat35, The Scarecrow Foundation. Entertainment with a purpose! Their goal is to help solve the hunger issues plaguing the country. They currently have shows broadcasting on www.knoxivi.com. Sound familiar? Wow... your good. I designed their first site back in 2009. It has changed since though. They have a comedy sports show every morning, The Spanky Brown Show. It's a great show. I had a nice chat with Spanky at the bar about sports and what not, really cool guy.

So check out their shows and come eat at Latitude 35!

I'm published...again! :)

Threadless 10 year anniversary book just came out and guess who made it in! Yup check it out.

Just a tad disappointed they made no mention of contest this shirt won. It was judged by several well known designers making the voting aspect irrelevant. Oh well at least I'm in it!

Sad day for RED ON RED

The true colors of our 3rd partner finally shine through. Intentions are finally shown and really leave one shaking their head. Not going to say much here but whats done is done and we are down to 2. We are better off truthfully and we are looking forward to what the future will bring. It will take us a while to dig out of this pile but we are willing and ready. We have big plans and big events coming up. Bring it on!

Boston Bruins Raffle page finally up and running. Started this project a few months back and finally all the stars have aligned! Hopefully the first of many raffle sites to come! I designed and did the surface css coding for this while a 3rd party did the backend coded. We are in discussions about reworks though.

Work showcase

Created a little flash app for the home page of an upcoming website we are developing and I really love the way it turned out. I created the illustration and did all the flash work. Notice how each item you change changes the others accordingly. Fun little project.

Click on the image for a better view

Few weeks ago I was put on a logo for Blue Hen sauce. This illustrates the process and work put into a logo design. It also didn't help that the client didn't know exactly what he wanted and apparently how much a designer puts into a logo, including research. A quick search shows that the blue hen is an actually term for a chicken yet not a recognized breed but dates back to the Revolutionary War and is also the state bird of Delaware. The blue hen resembles a roster. So imagine were my stating point would be? A roster look? Wow! Imagine that. Phase 1 was complete and sent for review. Only comments in return were it's a roster not a hen. Try again and make sure the artist really knows the difference between a roster and a hen. Huumm think a mention of that may help in the beginning? Nah, let's direct this blind person towards a wall and laugh when they run into it. Also added was, maybe make it comical. Phase 2 completed and sent. Bottle looks like liquor but here is an image I found that is exactly what I want. Really? How hard is that? Phase 3, bam! Done.

Disclaimer: This was for a 3rd party client. The middle man is the one make these comments not the actually client.

Beginning of the beginning

So I finally decided to do it! I have made the decision to move to part time at DMGx to help pursue my other goals. I have been extremely nervous about telling them my decision. I wasn't sleeping well, having stress related heartburn and was over working. The last 2 nights I woke up around 3am and couldn't go back to sleep. So the time came. Went to the boss's office yesterday morning and told him I needed to talk. A few minutes later he came into my office. "As you know I have been very stressed lately (he had recently made the comment I looked stressed) and I have been over working myself." He agreed. "Well I have talked with Mary and have decided I'd like to go part time."..... Wade, "That is not a problem at all. You know we have been having a hard time keeping everyone busy here and that seems to make the most sense." Weight lifted. We went on about how it would work and that it shouldn't be a problem.

The rest of day I felt great. The feeling to changing something in your life in such a positive way is just indescribable. Had a few beers at lunch with the guys and we have planned our first full day of work together. I slept great! Woke a few times thinking it was weekend, guess I was just that relaxed.
