Midlife Crisis


My poster had a midlife crisis and completely changed. For the better I hope; color, photography, new skater dude.

Rock n' Roll Summer, Summer Experience

I made the two inside panels of the brochure, I drew a straight gray line down the middle to demonstrate the fold.


My concerns

1.) It folds through the text on the bottom. I know it will still be readable, but maybe that's still not okay. 

2.) There is too much going on for a viewer. To me, all the activity on the page is good because it mimics the Skate Escape feel (fun, active, etc) Although there is a lot going on, it reads easy to me. I worry it may not read as easily to others.

JKDS Boards

You may remember the business cards I posted back in January, this is all the rebranding work I've done for Joel Kelly Design Studio. Hopefully it will fit nicely in my portfolio.  I am worried though. I have 25 baords total. I think I need to get a deeper box. Where should I go for this? The search is on. And on and on...

Less Is More

The ads below are semi-final. I am having trouble deciding the logo color, gray (like on 5.5) or blue (like on 3x11)?

Also, I may need something more on 5.5 x 5.5

Attempt # 1


Here is the metal I cut, with my printed artwork. Luckily, I get to try again, because the quality is not that good. Hopefully the next one is better.
