Speaking of websites, I haven't updated it in a while, but that'll change today as I've updated it with all my recent projects. Also, I've put my blog link first, since I post on here fairly regularly. I plan to integrate the blog into the site soon, but just not this second.
Anyway, the third edition of the Alternative Pick Double Deck has arrived and if you're a working creative and want to receive a copy email me. I wanted an architectural theme, and was inspired by the lines of several classic structures to create the look. Instead of a slipcase, we opted for a side-by-side shipping carton, which has a semi-gloss finish along with the a similar print on the inside. The boxes themselves are roughly the same dimensions as last year's and feature a spot uv coating on the front titles.
Something that's different is the inclusion of several accordion folded cards which feature the winners from the 5th Annual Altpick Awards. Unfortunately I don't have pics of these, but trust me they're pretty cool. Here are some pics:
Also, I was privelaged to get two cards, one for illustration and one for design. I've posted the design card here because I got to get a white bordered front with a black bordered back, which I thought was pretty cool. So many thanks again to the Alternative Pick and Maria Ragusa-Burfield especially for her guidance on this project. I really feels different from last year's and both stand strongly on their own.
So that's it Blog, see you tonight at the show.
