Dallas, TX High-Rise Graphic Install

These are some photos of a Vinyl installation my friend Gabriel Cavazos and I did. We do work for sign companies and we got contracted to design and install vinyl graphics in each 4 floor stairwell in the building. The stairwells were on the corners of the building and were surrounded in glass so that from the freeway you could see baroque designs traveling up the stairs of the building. It looked really cool when we were done and overall was a 2-3 week project from concept to completion. Click on the image for larger view.

Young Mammals - "Delilah"
The Young Mammals won Song of the Year, Best new Band, and Best Indie Rock at the 2007 Houston Press Music Awards as a result of their very hard work and the independent release of the "Delilah" video.

"Delilah" Young Mammals from mark armes on Vimeo.

I had the very fortunate opportunity to work with the director Mark Armes and the Young Mammals to produce two amazing videos. On the video for "Wires and Buttons' I was absent from the set but I helped Color Correct the B&W footage in post and attempted to re-create the sharp contrasts used in old Zombie movies. In the "Delilah" video I basically created the rigs that brought the snack foods to life and helped with overall art direction.

ENJOY!!!!

Vector Art

These are two vector art pieces I designed in Adobe Illustrator. More than anything they were just exercises but I really liked the way they turned out. The top picture is a design I made a few months ago, and the bottom one I just designed tonight for a friend (who liked the top one), and wanted me to design something like that for her house. I'm going to print it on Photo Paper on an HP8000 Solvent printer tomorrow at 14"x14". The top picture also won a few awards for vector art on DeviantArt.
