Met with several great entertainment ad agencies, hung out with friends and sampled some great coffee. Oh, and of course, I couldn’t pass up the after-party for the Key Art Awards. Even got bumped into by some of the actual awards. Hmmm….maybe that’s a message for me to win some next year. Well, between the work I did for Pixar/Disney and some of the gigs I developed from the trip that could be a reality. Stand by for some more exciting news soon….

They’re my fave gigs. Get to unleash my creative on subjects I love….as in writing headlines, taglines and titles for movies and new tv series. Anyone been watching Portlandia, by the way? It’s Lorne Michaels of Saturday Night Live’s latest series. If you like Fred Armisen from SNL, you’ll love this. It’s kinda like Kids in the Hall. On cable you can catch it on IFC or on iTunes for just $20 for all of Season #1. WELL worth it! It has fun mocking Portland, Oregon which sometimes takes itself too seriously, so it’s an easy target. :) Great place to live though with plenty of friendly peeps. Come visit me! Here’s a link to Portlandia. ENJOY!!!

Also some of the other headings and some of the body copy, too. Lot of fun coming up with the featured video and anti-scurvy recipe, too. Gotta have that!

Great first project for Columbia Sportswear.

Variety Magazine said it grossed $75 million this weekend. Here’s the theatrical poster. Warner Bros changed my line from “Try to elude him” to “Nothing escapes him.” But oh well, it was a group effort and a great experience. Too bad the ad agency failed with their merger as

well as their Chapter 11 restructuring. Hundreds of staffers were let go and freelancers were unpaid (as in me). Ugh! Great experience though. Hopefully 2010 will be a better year.

A version of my tagline, but hey it's a team effort.
