First Wednesday

firstWednesdayI have been going through a reductive phase lately. Trying to make posters in the simplest way possible. This one is for First Wednesday at East Lounge in Portland. First Thursday is always a hullabaloo in the Pearl district here. Just more elevator fodder at WK. Plenty of white space so there is room for people to draw penis’s on it.

Layer Tennis

Layer tennis with Josh Nelson today. Make a image, pass it to your friend and you have to use something from the previous file to make a new one. This stuff gets pretty rank when you play for keeps. No offense intended to anyone or anything. Just making stuff. I served up the first volley.

This will bring perspective into the whole thinking, if you can call it that.

Hope Phones

hopephones_gridposter7-smallhopephones_gridposter73-smallhopephones_gridposter72-small

New work for non-profit organization, Hope Phones. This organization was started by Stanford student Josh Nesbit and takes old phones that are donated, reprograms them with Frontline SMS software and gives these phones to doctors working in Malawi, Africa. Thus when a doctor needs medical information on a patient a simple text message can deliver the patients medical history, saving valuable time and money.

This series of 3 posters was intended to be used in the building at Wieden+Kennedy to get old phones donated by WK employees. Trying to tell the story was a mouthful when trying to explain what Hope Phones is and does. In the process of making these posters, the visual language simplified the whole program and are going to be used by the organization for their own promotions.

Make it worth it

 pwnd2

Seeing as how the wordpress Paparrazi who apparently love my site are hanging on every word (see previous post about spammers on wordpress site blogs), let’s talk about something shall we.

I love an upset. I love the underdog. I love when someone who was assumed to not even be a factor, becomes the winner. I love surprise. I love when all the predictions do not deliver.  This can and does happen all the time, just not on the biggest sporting/media scale. Tonight the Orlando Magic of the NBA beat the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2009 NBA Eastern conference finals to advance to final round.

Now don’t get  me wrong, I love Lebron. How can you not. Anyone with the weight of the world on him like he has, Lebron is without a doubt first class. FIRST CLASS. That’s a period at the end of that.

 

Now I work in the house that built Nike. I have a huge respect for the brand and the people who work on it. Safe bets are never really safe and Dwight Howard and the Magic put another coin in the slot on that fact. Now a few weeks back we (I say that in the collective sense of an agency) produced the Nike Most Valuable Puppets campaign. I love these spots. They are funny and well done. Hats off to Murphy, Ponte, Williams and everyone else who did these. Even bigger props to Big Al who approved all of this on the client side. Doing good work takes guts and that is solely on the client, always.

That’s unusual

So last night I updated my blog software, layout and all that code bollocks. That was the first time in at least a couple of months. Either there is a lul in the fresh and exciting content of what is happening on the interwebs or I have honestly hit a nerve with the web community and my clearly poetic prose. 3 comments from absolute random sites that go no where. I can smell shit the same as an elephant and this smells like someone has been eating a lot of curry. 

 

Let’s call them out shall we. here is a screen shot of the comments that are not going anywhere on this site. The internet might be a ghetto of full of cowards but you can hawk your wares on some other block. picture-31Tomorrow I will introduce you to my GFY™ campaign that launched a few months back. Here are the links. I am sure to win some fans with this move.

Posters by Tony Frusciante on Flickr

flickr_logo.jpg

So last week I started cleaning out old hard drives. Ones that still work at least. There is nothing more agonizing than losing a bunch of work that you have put your soul into than having a drive crash. It happens. So I decided to start putting the posters that I make in one location on-line if for nothing else, my own benefit.

24/7 Acoustic Concert Portland

24_7poster_smaller.jpg

Here is a poster for this weekends 24/7 Acoustic concert to be held in the atrium at Wieden+Kennedy’s Global headquarters in Portland, Oregon. The event is free and open to the public. Here is some more info as written on my other blog, WK Portland.

By mid-March, the United States will have been at war in Afghanistan and Iraq for seven years. To mark this important, if tragic, anniversary, over 150 of the Portland area’s best classical, contemporary and world musicians are uniting to make a giant musical gift to the city and beyond.

“24/7” is a series of 24 dramatic concerts, each starting upon the hour, from 7:00 p.m. Saturday, March 21, and continuing through to 7:00 p.m., Sunday, March 22, in the W+K Atrium.

FREE.

WK Radio will broadcast a portion of the event.

Unclassified

unclassified_12x18smaller.jpg

Unclassified is a WK Radio program by Cynthia Valenti. She explores all kinds of music for certain bass lines or drum tracks or harmonies that tickle your bones. I made a bunch of logos for this poster when I started. I then thought why not make two posters in one. One poster is laid over some wall paper and when you rip away one the other is revealed. Here is a high res file so you can check the details.

Check out Cynthia’s show, Friday’s at 11am on WK Radio.
