If anyone here or in interviews questions your MTV/political work, ask them if they've heard of Milton Glazer.
Here's a whole directory of editorial illustrators I just found on google:

You're right. I forgot about that. I'm so dissappointed with so many of my favorite people in music.

matty don't scrap anything. It's your fucking work man. If you like it thats all that matters at the end of the day. I really like your work alot.

i hear what you are saying, CyBrain, but in the article that i designed it for, it talks about how clash songs are now used on commercials and television show theme songs and that they didn't do that until joe strummer died. once he did, the rest of the band started selling the songs...

My only criticism is that I didn't really notice the Next Previous buttons for a few seconds. They should probably be more prominent.
On your Sell out/Black Eyed Peas piece you have the words Sell Out next to The Clash. That couldn't be farther from the truth.

I would not scrap the Bush thing for fear of political reaction. I'm proud to say there is hardly a place in the country more anti-Bush than NY. There is a use for editorial design in publishing and that could be lucrative for you since your strength is illustration and image.
I wouldn't miss it that muchif you do scrap it though. I think most of your work is superior.
Agencies are looking for anything and everything. You should do fine. Good luck and welcome to NY.

just a thought, I'd be curious how others feel about it esp, agencies pitching to mtv etc.

oooh, didn't think of that, material. good point.
though, i do think that most people will see the point of view im bringing up. and, it wasn't a personal piece, it was designed for an article about MTV's lack of music.
but thanks for raising that. i wouldn't have thought anything of it.

given the prominence of MTV in NYC, I wonder if that work isn't more 'politically' damaging than the bush piece.

i think matty decided to call it quits and become a hobo...
... k0na should be whoopin' him up something dirty right about now. :)

I see the ?tv logo just before the basket players load
I kinda liked the next/prev. thing better. But I'm european and can read, maybe it's better with arrows for you yanks. :)

Haha, you know those images like where one person sees a Candle Holder and another person sees two faces looking at each other?
It's like that with the Bush image I guess.
I see dunce cap and mock crown I guess, haha.

what's an iframe?
- mattyd040
alright, updated it, but used arrows instead of 'prev' and 'next'.
thoughts?
