This piece was done for my interpretive illustration class, we had to design a coffee sleeve that would be chic and protective from the scalding heat of gourmet coffee. It was also suppose to tie into some of the contemporary designs of Pearson Airport's Terminal 1. We could choose between 3 campaigns/audiences for this project (Red Eye, Sky Blue, and Jet Fuel) . I decided to go with Sky Blue because it was a pretty open direction where i could really put my spin on it, so i decided to go in a kind of nostalgia-flight history direction. An ode to the super wrightbros, if you will. ...i.e. i got to draw gliders and a guy name orville. I was pretty happy with it, it was fun to do... Im still very unsure of myself in the digital colouring arena, something im going to have work at.
This is my first attempt at using after effects (8 weeks into the course, thanks dave *sarcastic thumbs up*). Im pretty happy with how it turned out, although i wouldnt mind going back in and re timing everything. It seems like a fun program that offers up a myriad of avenues for making what the french like to call " le awesome "....
thats right ladies, Im a connoisseur. Hope you digg it.

This piece was my contribution to the 2nd round of the 'Better Dreams' project. The premise for this project was that we were all given a piece of completely instrumental music, and we had to illustrate our emotional response to it. The first project was lead by Monsieur Dubeau, who for some reason he seems to be popping up on my blog quite a bit...Hey Greg, get your own blog!
Our ol' fearless leader for this second round is the always dapper Dave Murray. The pieces will all be on display in the Sheridan student gallery starting Monday, November 5th.
