first night is coming

Here's a postcard for FirstNight Akron. I know I can show it now that I saw one of my ads for it in a magazine. Today I worked on a Downtown Akron Partnership shell ad. A shell ad is when a whole or large part an ad space page is purchased and sections are sold to other advertisers. Does that make sense? I'll show it later.

catch-up

The past few months have been pretty much the usual work with Downtown Akron Partnership, First Night Akron, and PARTA. I've vectorized some logos for a Marketing/printing company. Today, I designed a logo for a new client and revised a upcoming Trip Planner for PARTA.

Here's some work I've done lately, First Night Akron ad and a promo mug for Downtown Akron Partnership.

catch-up time

I'll start with a more recent job, the fifteenth year of First Night Akron. I got to design the anniversary button, which will be used for admission to events leading up to and including First Night. The design includes elements from past First Night buttons and this year's also. Yes, there is still an official First Night button. The design and artist have yet to be revealed, but of course I know who it is - no, not me.

Here is the button

I've been doing ads and postcards for the event also, here's a detail from a postcard.

I've been busy working on the First Night's website redesign. It hasn't been approved yet, I just finished it at 4:00am today (almost an allnighter). Here are 3 of the rejected mastheads.
