I have a blog, so now I get to spout off about all things Amity, and all things work...work being, for me the lucky son-of-a-bitch I am, working for myself. Currently I am drinking a Coopers pale ale while listening to Misery Signals' new record and eating some totally fucking amazing chips. Shit's rough right?
I worked on this logo today for Thriller, which is a new night starting up here in Brisbane, run by the same people who have made themselves the Lords of the nightclub scene (well, kind of) for clubs like Next and Bang etc etc...You know the ones. Anyway, here is the logo...
With everything I do that is text based I start off by drawing a rough in my sketch book, then shoving that in the scanner, whacking about 10 books on top of the scanner to keep the fucker flat while I scan it, and then importing it into illustrator. I did a somewhat step-by-step kind of animation for this other logo I worked on recently (that was rejected) for A Secret Death, which is this...
That was the drawing part of it...then into the computer...
And it turned out like this
So there you have it...that took about 2 whole days of working, then it was rejected. I wasn't overly happy with that, but life goes on. In my spare time I paint book covers as well, just working on fonts, I am in love with them, always have been. I still get super siked on really good signage, there's just something about it...
