a sense of movement

This is one of a series of adds Toyota ran about eight or nine years ago. I really like the sense of movement in both the picture and the copy. I also like the white space at the top of the page. I think it compounds the feeling of open space found in the photo, and helps define the picture.

last semester's narrative project

This is my narrative project from last spring. As you can see, the project's format changed significantly from last semester. For instance, we could use sound, which was one of my favorite parts to this assignment. If I were to do it again, I would probably take better photographs, as a few in this video were blurry. I also would pare down the story and make it shorter. The show runs long, although much of that length stems from the ending song not cutting out soon enough. It could have been edited more effectively, but all things considered I was pretty happy with the results, especially considering I had to re-shoot everything after the first comp because my photos were entirely too dark. I hope you enjoy this foray into narrative hah hahs.

magazines

Here is the website of Mountain Gazette, the magazine I used to work for many years ago. It has undergone some format changes with its recent ownership change, but I get the sense that it still is essentially the same Gazette.

halloween toon

show and tell - favorite words

Here are some of my favorite words. I chose all of these words mostly because of their sound. Some have good definitions; others, like "pantiliners" denote things that fall far short of their glorious sounding name. "Pantiliners" may be the finest word in the English language. Unfortunately they are diapers for old people. I think they are even a made up name. By that I mean the Depends people coined the term. Fascinating that a corporation should for once be responsible for bringing beauty into the world.

Pantiliners
Chafe
Rot
Exacerbate
Murmillo
Expunge
Cistern
Tort
Emblem
Immense
Immolate
Effluvium
Argyle
Taciturn
Beatitude
Mirage
Eschew
Kith
Thither
Naught
Aught
Abscond
Caress
Fond

I could name many more fine words, but I think that is enough for now.
