AIGA San Antonio will be presenting 2 great events this weekend. “Hatch Show Print: Lecture” on Friday, September 16th at 8pm and “Hatch Show Print: Workshop” on Saturday, 17th from 10am – 4pm.  I’ll be attending both, even though the workshop is sold out, you should try to at least make it to the lecture.

As a way to celebrate San Antonio’s Mexican heritage, every year the 16 de Septiembre Commission organizes a month-long celebration of the Mexico’s independence from Spain. This year we were lucky to design this year’s calendar of events and commemorative medal for this very important celebration. Last Wednesday the Commission had a press conference to announce this year’s events, we were able to attend and take some photos that we would like to share with you. (more…)

…and you know how WE do it!

This past Saturday we wanted to do a team bonding exercise by, well, exercising! We were part of the SARR Carrabba’s Classic Half Marathon Relay and Run, we ran as team and we certainly had a great time, despite having to wake up very (VERY!) early and the very persistent South Texan heat.

Lucharaaaan de dos a tres caidas… sin limite de tiempo!

Yeah, we sometimes do some funny stuff to keep ourselves entertained.  Enjoy!

I really want for people to attend this event and show their support to the UIW Graphic Design Senior Show. I’m perosnaly very excited to see what these kids are up to, I’m hoping to be impressed.

I hope to see a lot of you there. Its going to be this Thursday April 28th from 5-9pm at The Fine Silver building. Here is some of what you’ll see. (more…)

Opening credits can suck you right in or deter you from watching a show and ending up watching the whole 2 season on a week because you finally decided to look past the credits (Sons of Anarchy!) I haven’t watched this new HBO series but the opening credits look pretty bad-ass, I wish Sons of Anarchy would’ve taken some time to come up with so cool intro instead of the crappy intro they use now, oh well. Check this out.

Here are some more of my favorite opening credits sequences, enjoy.

True Blood opening credits by Digital Kitchen

Carnivale opening credits by a52 visual effects

Six Feet Under opening credits by Danny Yount while at Digital Kitchen

Dexter by…you guest it! Digital Kitchen

These were just a few I really enjoy, I know I left our Mad Men, United States of Tara, the IT crowd, Lost, The Simpsons and many more, but I wanted to only post 2 videos and ended up with 5. I will be posting a movie intro post soon!

I’m currently in love with The Phraseology Project, a project started by designer Drew Melton, as a project that…

… is meant to be a running experiment in typography. It is meant to be a framework for exercise and practice in Typography. We try our best to come up with our best work always but more importantly we value practice and healthy process. In other words, these pieces aren’t perfect. But they are honest. We celebrate the process of design and creativity in all of its’ outcomes

I think the idea is genius and I think that Drew and his contributors have created a a great space for creative minds to feed off  on and a place to take small mental break from the daily tedium. I personally been checking it out since I discovered it, just to clear out my mind and get lost on these beautiful creations.

Here are some of my favorites, don’t forget to check out more (and submit your own phrase) on the Projects website. (more…)
