Print Work
All of the examples below were done as projects while I was in school.
I have created brochures & DVD Sleeves freelance & under contract, I just don't currently have any of the materials to display here, I'm working on getting them up here soon though. Honestly I have been really enthralled in web development lately and I haven't done much print media work in the past year or so. But enjoy the thumbnail imagery, and the larger versions of course.

Alice in Wonderland VHS
by stevet | Tue, 12/30/2008 - 4:28am
This was a digital imaging project. There was a choice between creating a CD and a VHS, I chose the VHS because I new that doing the DVD cover was the slacker way of not learning how to work with a good die strike. I think this project came out rather well I only wish I had the psd file or the qxd so that I could make sure the text did not cover Alice's face on the back cover. I have scene learned that you should avoid covering people faces (even animated ones) with text. I just love Lewis Carroll, and the Disney adaptation is a very fun and interesting journey down the rabbit hole.

Dave Matthews Band Cd Case
by stevet | Tue, 12/30/2008 - 4:26am
This album is really about contrasts: high and low, light and dark, happy and sad. At least that was the feeling I got when I listened to the CD. I wanted the case to really reflect the feel of the album. The solution I worked out was to show the strong contrasting I felt when I was listing to the album on the front and back covers of the case. The front being: lovers watching a beautiful sunrise, and the back being: a family on the edge of a dock in a storm. -
Guess Ad: Halle Berry

This is one of those surrealistic perfume ads you always see in fashion magazines. I just love crazy, tripped out, advertisement, especially when there are beautiful women like Halle Berry involved.

Popular Science Magazine

When I heard we were going to be designing Magazine covers I knew what my plan was. I just love UAV's and I subscribe to Popular Science. It has a cool look to it, and I think photoshop users out there will dig my "American Sunset" displacement map. I'm still holding out for them to announce a cover design contest . -
Wa Mu CD Mailer Design
by stevet | Tue, 12/30/2008 - 4:30am
This was a layout project I created during a Quark Express class. With direct mailers It is important to catch peoples attention, or your customers great new offer will end up in the trash along with all of the junk mail people get every day. It was important to me that this direct mailer be visually stunning and important looking enough to make it into the keeper pile of mail. I think I came up with a power concept and really followed through with it on this one.
