Well, it’s been a hectic few months… sooo… Here’s some stuff I’ve been working on recently…

doDetroit TV

Well, phase one has begun on doDetroit TV. Check it out at www.dodetroit.com/tv/. We’re still looking for music videos from bands, short films by local filmakers, commercials,and other places that would like to be featured. Check out the contact page if you would like to be featured, or if you would like to run the DVD in your business starting in the next month or so.

The Hadituptoheres Record Release Show

March 19th at the Old Miami. I designed the poster for this one, and they’ll be available at the show. Probably with the purchase of a record, but I’m not sure exactly how the band is handling that.

I’ll have a few additional ones for purchase at $3 each. If there are any left for the People’s Arts Festival, I’ll be giving them out as change. Yes, I do have plans of doing the festival this year… but we’ll see how that plays out as August 28 & 29 approach.

Ded Dave Show

I’ve got some paintings currently hanging up on set, you should be able to see them in an upcoming episode. Also, the St. Paddy’s Day Parade this year will feature the Ded Dave Show, and I’m going to try to make it out for that walk.

Detroit Dance N Graff 2010

I’m actually pretty pleased with how this logo turned out. It’s damn near impossible to find Graffiti fonts that aren’t total crap, so I opted for no fonts. Amazingly, I was actually able to come up with something. I’ll post an image of it later. I’ll be working on the website and flyer for that one later tonight.

I’ll do an image posting later tonight (if I have time)…
