Creative Folks

Dan’s Pet Shop
I’ve had the priv­ilege of work­ing with Dan Turcotte and DPS sev­eral times over the years. Always stel­lar work and super great team.

DPS has pro­duced award win­ning audio and video con­tent for brands like Toyota, ING Direct, Sunlight, Axe Bodyspray, and many many more. DPS has also scored and pos­ted audio for pro­gram­ming on sev­eral net­works includ­ing ESPN, CBC, CMT, Vision and The Food Network. We are team of highly spe­cial­ized dir­ect­ors, pro­du­cers, com­posers and engin­eers who deliver amaz­ing res­ults every time.

Short Orders No. 2

The second in the deli­cious, video series col­lab­or­a­tion with Dale at Arts&Rec. Yum.

In the middle of a beautiful story.

We all — in the end — die in medias res. In the middle of a story. Of many stories… What I learned from my brother’s death was that char­ac­ter is essen­tial: What he was, was how he died.”

These lines are from the beau­ti­ful eulogy that Mona Simpson, delivered for her brother, Steve Jobs.

 

 

Cupcake Lorem Ipsum

I won­der if my cli­ents would like it if I made dummy text yummy instead of the usual plain affair.

For example: Cupcake ipsum dolor sit. Amet ice cream jujubes ses­ame snaps hal­vah hal­vah liquorice. Croissant bear claw chocol­ate cake tof­fee sugar plum muffin cheese­cake candy canes. Caramels marsh­mal­low brownie bon­bon cot­ton candy. Halvah wafer bon­bon cup­cake icing donut macar­oon ses­ame snaps

Maybe I would just start over­dos­ing on sugar…

Short Orders No. 1

I recently star­ted a side video pro­ject with Arts & Rec Productions. It will be a series of shorts fea­tur­ing quick and tasty food. Here’s the first one.

The Kerning Game

A little bit of design fun on a Friday after­noon… if your idea of fun includes kern­ing type, like me!

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

- Steve Jobs
