    The whole shabang (except the writing). Been working on it for a few months, just me, so the site design is more of a "nudge it into a shape over time" deal than it is more of an intentional design process with typical UX artifacts. It's rough but functional.

    If you write about the future, hit me up I'm looking for nonfiction as much as I am fiction....

    • An idea: add next prev story to each "article" so a user can go to the next one quickgrafician
    • But solid website, nice effort!
      Stories not too bad, the type of stuff to read in the metro

    • I have that at the bottom, but at the top would be useful, yes. Thanks for the feedback!cannonball1978

    One door closes, another opens.

    The final project I worked on as a Studio Assistant at Staab Studios has officially opened in New Jersey—and the building looks incredible. Staab Studios was responsible for many of the models throughout the space. For about two and a half years, I had the opportunity to contribute to the fabrication of the pieces—molding, casting, and building some of the larger elements. Unfortunately, progress was slowed by COVID, construction delays, and funding setbacks. As resources dwindled, the owner could no longer sustain a six-person team, and I had to step away. Saying goodbye was tough—it was a meaningful chapter, and walking away wasn’t easy. However, I did hear about another place...

    In Kansas City, a Children’s Literature Museum called The Rabbit Hole was under construction—a whimsical world brought to life with playful forced perspective and a flat, 2D aesthetic inspired by classic book illustrations. I applied, and soon after, I was hired as a Sculptor and General Fabricator. Everything is built in-house, and one of the most rewarding parts of the job is hearing guests move through the space—laughing, talking, completely immersed. Fuel for the soul.

    Art Director, Writer, Designer.

    File under "amazon tech product"

    Store banners that sold.
    Design direction they didn’t go for is in purple.
    I was just happy they didn't throw away the typeface.





    • @grafician, you asked me to post some work. Here ya go, just something random that's not too boring for QBN.canoe
    • @grafician, you're either going to (1) ignore this (2) make an NDA excuse (3) call me a dog humping your leg...canoe
    • but you're not going to post work.canoe
    • Since he called you fuckin' pussies and challenged you also maybe @continuity, @utopian, @mono, @palim will post some work.canoe
    • Uhm...I'm confused...all this drama for you to post SOME FUCKING BANNERS MADE IN CANVA?!

      Unreal

      grafician
    • What did you actuall did on these?

      Typeset some copy in Fractul font and add a drop shadow?
      grafician
    • Yes, I can recognize the fucking font because I actually know my stuff

      grafician
    • The photos seem unedited, straight from the phone??!grafician
    • So you're saying I am a wannabe designer and you come up with this junior level crap?

      Wow.
      grafician
    • AI will instantly take out designers that call this "design". We call them the "first-to-go". If AI can do it better, you're gone.bigrobot
    • canoe is gonnneeeeeeeeegrafician
    • It's called advertising you fools. Wrapping the product in that techno snake is not design? Ok robot.canoe
    • NO, IT'S NOT :)))))))))

      HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAH...
      grafician
    • Only graf would respond like he doesn't understand Art & Copy, the backbone of advertising.canoe
    • You're stupid dude... using graphics integrated into a product is design, much more design than have some text inside squircles.canoe
    • OMG THE AUDACITY :)))))))

      Please stop, you're making an even bigger fool of yourself :))))
      grafician
    • LOLOL. So you took an AI-generated swirly multi-colored poop pile and masked the product around it. Big fucking dealbigrobot
    • No grid to speak of, letter spacing and line height are atrocious, drop shadow on text (LMFAO), font choice is horrific as well. Dafont.com vibes.bigrobot
    • EXACTLY!

      HHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA COOL "DESIGN" ADVERTISING BOY!
      grafician
    • Also, you misspelled "Android" it's not "Andriod" jackass. That's the ultimate sign of a junior or trash designer. Pick one, you're it.bigrobot
    • I love you canoe but this doesn’t really scream design to me either. More production if anything.monospaced
    • Yah I used AI five years ago to make this. I love the typeface. I think I said, Art Director (photoshoot), Writer (headlines), Designer (techno snake)...canoe
    • ...for the mood board.canoe
    • Thats ok I'm a big boy I can handle that this doesn't scream design. It's definitely a campaign. I like the purple one regardless.canoe
    • @robot - You should ask people if they use AI instead of accusing them. That's not how I roll, plus this is older work.canoe
    • It's like 5 years ago. I posted it so that graf would finally post some of his mindblowingly creative work. I've posted my most recent projects already...canoe
    • The sports brand and the land rover brandcanoe
    • The what?

      Where?
      grafician
    • @robot, what did I do? Art Directed the photoshoot, wrote the copy (excuse the typos) and made the ads. And made the mood board in purple to show a diff idea.canoe
    • Still the fundamentals aren't there - grid & type details mainly. Old work or not, at least clean them up in 5 minutes before postingbigrobot
    • I kept telling him he was no design skills after his typography "blunders" but he keeps insisting he's a big boss in advertising :))grafician
    • I like the work, canoe.maquito
    • bigrobot = grafician?canoe
    • Thanks for posting design work! Perfectly servicable banners, like, you just gotta get them done and cash out without too much time spent on it. Supa.robthelad
    • An honest day's work.palimpsest
    • a honest day work of a dilettant, just kiddin... junior work is always best...fuck these senior wankers designers with their snobish and exploitivneverscared
    • aesthetics... keep it sloppy keep it groovy...neverscared
    • Always trying to optimize my hours Rob, I mean Dragovcanoe
    • Aww, I can only find Voltbox items on Ebay. They not around anymore? :(Akagiyama
    • canoe = trollmort_
    • Knowing context helps me appreciate what you did here.monospaced
    • Stop kissing his ass monospaced, this is crap work

      Sure, still "work" but for him to have this BIG OF A MOUTH with THIS crappy work...
      grafician
    • Go fetch me some fonts Buttonscanoe
    • It's a photo of a product, with a cool typeface and some super short yet effective headlines. It's what we do guys.canoe
    • It's no wonder only personal projects are posted on here... because our regular day job work is ridiculed.canoe
    • Not every design, not every client, wants album cover artwork... this speaks to their audience and has a tech vibe...canoe
    • Didn't know that this thread was only for award winning work...canoe
    • I posted a real app that I work on that is in production and used by hundreds of dental labs all over Europe.

      You post banners.

      Have some humility maybe?
      grafician
    • I posted RECENT WORK as in production this week.

      You posted banners 5 years OLD!

      You have a BIG mouth and very high EGO
      grafician
    • I left Advertising because of too many people like yourself around - idiots with high egos

      In Product we solve actual problems for people

      You sell crap!
      grafician
    • You didn’t leave advertising because of people like me. You left because you couldn’t handle the pressure. Couldn’t deal with feedback. Couldn’t compete.canoe
    • So now you trash it from the outside to feel better.

      Stop spazzing out. Go jerk off to some fonts and relax.
      canoe
    • You're TELLING ME WHY I LEFT ADVERTISING?! YOU TELLING ME?!!!?
      LOLOO

      Bro you're demented, really seek help
      grafician
    • Yah, I have delusions of grandeur, an inflated ego, I'm never wrong and I'm the best UX/UI designer for Acme Inc.canoe
  • grafician-6

    So this week working on a medical app for the dental labs market in Europe.

    Now finishing the mobile app version:

    • You claim to have been working in the field since 2008 and this is what you post? I'm overwhelmed with the originality here.canoe
    • You really know how to make a logo disappear.canoe
    • Maybe you're unfamiliar this is product design work, UX/UI...grafician
    • Yah I'm totally unfamiliar with what every other app looks like, you just did a better job of not integrating their brand dufus.canoe
    • Sureeeee

      Maaaan go back to your silly banners, never mention me or my work again!
      grafician
    • What work? This? This is all you have in your 15+ year career. Great job. You killed it!canoe
    • WAIT YOU expect me to post 20 years of work here now?!?!?! :)))))))))))))))))))...

      OMG
      grafician
    • < this is only what I did this week while you were having a mental breakdowngrafician
    • I'm just surprised at this post. After reading your aggressively mean comments on my work below I was expecting more than a WIP and something from your past...canoe
    • LOL

      this entire thread is called SHOW SOME RECENT WORK for a reason!
      :)))))))))))))))))))...
      grafician
    • I knew you were going to post something weak and then make some excuse for it. Catfish.canoe
    • Something weak?!

      YOU EXPLICITLY POSTED BANNERS MADE IN CANVA! :)))))))))))))))))))...
      grafician
    • I design apps, you design silly banners and call it "advertising" we are NOT THE SAME.

      Go bark different tree advertising boy!
      grafician
    • Nothing screams creativity like a UI/UX app interface found on Dribbble. And make that clipart Toof logo bigger!utopian
    • I know, how could I have ever thought that this shitpost master wasn't as creative as he claims!canoe
    • Gaffe, you know that I've worked from Jr Designer up to CD up to CMO, but you say i'm a canva banner designer because you need that narrative in your mind...canoe
    • Your fucked up and fragile ego requires that kind of shit. You're having a narcissistic tantrum in case you were wondering why you would say something so stupidcanoe
    • Clearly states that I art directed the photoshoot, wrote the ads, and made them for amazon among other places. But to you it's "silly little banners" smhcanoe
    • Nobody cares about your banners man!
      Move along, really!
      grafician
    • "banners" as if programmatic or amazon stores are somehow beneath you... all hail Jagov!canoe
    • Yes, amazon stores are beneath me. But not for you, cheap assgrafician

    I did a benchmark exercise evaluating the logos and overall look of the party homepage. I did not focused on posters but here are the overall results. (sorry the report is in French)

    This is an experiment of a rating system app I am using as a designer to compare the styles of competing logos and, of course, since I am the only one rating these logos, I do not claim this to be a general point of view. I have tried to be as objective as possible and I am not going to vote for the one that got the most points.

    • Nice! I love your typography game.maquito
    • Some weak photos letting this down. I’d cut all the drone shots. Lose the event photo, use a mockup for the marketing collateral, tighter shots of the merch.monNom
    • Yellow engine cover and badge are strong. Sunset photo is strong, custom luggage interior shot is strong. I like the engine illu. Maybe the horse.monNom
    • This could be a very good portfolio piece with some editing and a bit of care and attention. Right now now it feels unloved. Make it the best it can be.monNom

    Are any of you guys knowledgeable in the "making videos with AI" field. I am trying to create an animation/video to go with some of my music but have no idea how to. What ai services to use, or even if any will actually work.

    Chucked a day or two into chatGPT for it to fail in rendering, I should of checked to see it worked.

    Just wondering what to do.
