ON THE DAILY: Bridgeport Blues

This one is based off of a true story out of Chicago...stay tuned!

CUSTOM KICKS: HALO Dunks

I was asked to create a pair of Halo dunks for a professional gamer. He wanted them to wear at his next event in Vegas. I based them off of the battle armor that Master Chief wears in the video game. I haven't included detailed shots in fear of bootleggers..instead, I put together a nice teaser video! Enjoy...


Video Shoot: Vernon Reid

Vernon Reid of Living Colour stopped by the other day. This is a quick teaser commercial for the product videos being spliced in the lab. The custom Parker guitar will be his main axe on the Experiencing Hendrix tour. It glows in the dark! Pretty sick...


Vernon...one cool dude.

Certificate of Authenticity

My friend Debbie recently started a letterpress business and is on the verge of greatness. We collaborated and came up with this design that I will be including with all of my custom shoes from here on out. I have had problems with China stealing my designs and mass producing them....long story. This is something that will give my customers that extra seal of approval to add along with the lacelocks. I am really happy with the turnout. Check out her blog Penelope's Press. Here's a sneak peek...

Video Shoot: DEAL

An oldie but goodie. This piece, featuring DEAL, was for the FreshMen on RubyHornet.com. With this column, I showcase people that I have had the chance to collaborate with in my lifetime. These people deserve their shine and I am trying to make that happen.

Video Shoot: George Lynch

I had the chance to film guitar legend George Lynch as he was tweaking his new Lynchbox Amplifier Series for Randall Amps. Here is a little teaser I put together for his new line. It will be followed by behind the scenes video sneak peeks of each of the new items that Randall has created for him...


                                     

You know I had to get a flick...Thanks George.

Flyer Design pt.2: The Goodness

I've had the opportunity to work with a lot of people in the Chicago music scene. DJ Rude One (deejay, producer, promoter, parakeet wrangler...etc.) plays a huge part in keeping the Hip Hop scene alive. Three years ago, he decided to start a night called the Goodness.

Basically, he wanted to throw memorable parties with acts that he liked and play with the deejays that he wanted to spin with. To this day, the Goodness is still going strong and I'm glad to be a part of the movement. Here are a few of the flyers that I designed for the many parties that have taken place in Chicago...
