DT Digital (an Ogilvy company) based in Melbourne found me through my Vimeo projects for this extended illustration project. As they put it: "We worked with the Australian Coal Association to communicate the coal industry's commitment to tackling the global challenge of climate change and the 'carbon capture … Read more

This is another startup I freelanced with that had a basic functionality set but with no prior visual or user experience design. Open Huddle's primary user offering is as a group collaboration tool with a focus on video chat and white-boarding as you'll see in the first image. The focus on interaction was to keep all units of the pages modular so one could easily resize or hide elements, while still keeping the profile center and expandable. Since … Read more

These were what inspired the login illustration that Vimeo commissioned from me for their redesign earlier this year; it is still in use throughout the site.

They have been printed on 308gsm acid-free Hahnemühle German Printmaking Paper. The prints UltraChrome ink has been specially treated and sprayed, giving it an archival lifespan of over 60 years. Each set of prints have been signed and numbered our of 250. Buy Here

Wikia came to me late in the process of developing the alpha release of their new open source search engine. They wanted to visually stand out from other engines as well as differentiate the social aspects of the site from other sites, like facebook.

Groupings of textual content are denoted clearly with distinct spacing and color heirarchy on all pages. After viewing a single page, it is clear what each color represents as an interactive … Read more

Working at vimeo was a pleasure! It was a dramatic change of pace from the agency work I had been doing and allowed a very creative and intelligent design process to take its course. Before working in-house at Vimeo I provided their login page illustration, which is used throughout the site in many different forms. It was inspired from some other personal illustration work I had just started persuing and can be found at my store … Read more

Feed Hole is an ongoing project that my brother, Casey, started in order to make sharing what you read and like on the internet as simple and easy as possible. The challenge with Feed Hole is that any given user is going to have a very large amount of content displayed that could be cluttered with the site interface. To avoid that, I designed a system with color indicators next to individual … Read more

The entire design and animation is my work, from concept to finish. The design concept, user interaction system, and sub-interfaces all were motivated by the simplicity of water on a plane. Circular navigations all refer back to the ripples on water responding to touch, and the content responds to the movements of the users mouse. This gives the user a sense of exploration and movement but still reassures them they can easily navigate back to where … Read more

Using a set content management system that Island Records was using for most of their artist sites, I designed Fall Out Boy's site to echo the aesthetic from their latest album release.

This was a very different project from what I typically did at Fearless Concepts. Island Records had already been beautifully designed by a fellow designer in the office, but later on Island requested that the individual artist pages be re-skinned modularly. This meant that on top of the content system already in place for managing all artists, news, and media within the Island site structure, they wanted to have another level of style content that … Read more

Bryan is an awesome audio engineer and brother. I designed a site that will be able to archive each project he works on as well as show them off to the public. He does great work, so it's important for him to have a great way to display it.

Mean Beard Recordings has a simple site that gets straight to the point: Buy their merchandise and support their music! I'd do anything to support Mr. Mean Beard himself.

Bon Jovi's initial art direction is one of the last projects I had at Fearless Concepts. The last time Bon Jovi had their site totally redesigned was over 5 years previous to this version! Island Records wanted to update the site design to not just revitalize their web presence, but to create a look that would allow for new content to come in modularly and not need constant visual updating. Unfortunately, I was not able to continue working on the … Read more

A site I designed and produced for Street Ball Entertainment. The big challenge with this project was being able to focus on all of the individual personalities making up the team, while keeping the aesthetic minimal and true to the group as a whole. The resulting players page accomplishes it well, with AJAX calls bringing in the individual information while keeping them grouped above as a good team should be!

Go be a friend and check out Kara's sweet music! Her site echoes the rich authenticity of her voice and charm. The biggest challenge was being able to exhibit a rugged feminine quality that didn't look too girly or childish. Unfortunately, the project was canceled after the initial phase of work created.

This is a conceptual mock-up I made for Legacy Records in 2007. The real challenge here was displaying all of the content they needed without redundancy or confusion of elements. Unfortunately, the project was canceled after the initial phase of work created.

This is a conceptual mock-up I made for Amp'd Mobile in 2006. They were looking for a futuristic reinvigoration of their previous site, so I created a flash based interface that would simplify navigation and page loads. The goal for me was to have all alternative content within view of the data the user was currently looking at and easily allow that to be brought up without alienating the user.

This is just a short list of the many web promotions, flash players, ecards and contests I have done in the recent past.
