We all know the social phenomenon is a market you can't dismiss. The potential to target and directly market to a specific profile type is a publisher's dream, and for advertisers, the ability to maximize return for online advertising is a compelling force. Over...

... the last few decades, several premier leagues in the U.S. have materialized then dissolved. This unstable market is to be expected with an emerging sport. Even though many leagues have disappeared, two have emerged as leaders: the NXL and the APL. As well as, other associations like the National Collegiate Paintball Association and in 2009 the High School National Championships.

Even though the NXL is attracting approximately a hundred and fifty pro and divisional teams per tournament Paintbrain finds the coverage lacking with the exception of the commentary. Paintbrain sees the production of this coverage as the next hurdle this young sport needs to fix. We are hoping to find an opportunity to contribute, after the site launches.

These custom weather icons were created using a mix of photographs, 3D particulate, and vector graphics. Design to scaled down in size and still be understood without caption from desktop to mobile devices. Sixty-four icons where created, covering all weather conditions included in the weather API.

This web advertising series will be trafficked as the site launches. Paintbrain is planning to run these on select webcast coverage of the NXL and NCPA. These webcasts can draw an average of one million competitive and avid viewers. This media buy is a great promotion because trafficked YouTube matches are not stripped of their promotional content, providing an ongoing addition to the original media buy with seventy thousand impressions per posted match.

This web advertising series will be trafficked when the site launches. Paintbrain is planning to run this media on "Behind the Bunker" a weekly webcast show. This web show appeals more to the woodsball player than the competitive speedballer. With a sporadic viewing audience, and though the impressions fall short of the NXL and NCPA speedball coverage, it is the only portal to reach woodsball players at this level.

This preprint mockup was created to get an estimate on off-set printing and ensure the print is properly produced, if it's brokered. This card will be printed soon as either a CMYK or matt spot color. Then a dry die stamping will be applied to the dripping brain graphic, creating a debossing effect. Finished off with pearl colored foiling, used on the Paintbrain logo.

These heroes were developed with localization in mind, quickly leveraged into different languages from programming with ActionScript to read an XML content list. A cool money saving idea for global builds.

Everyone seems to need a rich media ad or banner delivered; most of the time it's last minute. I've rarely had timing issues with any banners or any other type of project. Cramming large amounts of copy and content into a narrow bandwidth file and maintaining image quality is something I take pride in being able to do.

I was responsible for delivering several demos for juniper, as well as other motion projects. These demos averaged to a length of around five minutes; mostly one continuous animation. The demos covered a wide range of services: software and hardware that makes the cloud a secure, cost-effective and limitless solution to store your business's crucial data. The reaction from the client after presenting the first demo was nothing but gratitude. They love their demos, and I loved creating them.

Sportswear is different than other companies in this market. This system supplies professional performance costume designers with a wide range of flexibility that shortens the creative process. The Problem? Many users did not understand the system. The Fix? A complete...

... re-design of the site, that illustrates the benefits of the system to professional sew'ers. This re-design was very successful and is launching new careers for aspiring designers. This direction has taken back Sportswear's niche market from another encroaching business, has widened their pre-production services and is now working with more manufacturing clients.

The system created by Sportswear includes around three hundred catalog images that needed updating. Quickly learning and using the latest CAD cloth simulation program to produce these catalog items to strict specifications was necessary to create an optimized workflow; well worth it. The production of these catalog images moved forward at an accelerated pace after producing a broad set of graphics primitives.

Knowing Facebook would be a significant part of acquiring new clients for Sportswear; a series of dominating strategies emerged. The "Where's your photo?", "Creation of the month", "Mix and match" and "Featured pattern" posts, along with the newly designed site was responsible for a 44% increase in sales for the first year and had continued the following years successfully at 20% and...

... 18% respectively. Almost all of Sportswear's new clients are following the same examples as pre-existing clients. Creating something amazing with a new level of skill, sharing and promoting their latest works and acquiring new clients. Sportswear couldn't be more grateful for the imagery they have received from their clients. These images are slated for use over the next few years of Sportswear's new marketing plans.

Currently, I'm learning how to use a live RealTime video editing application called VDMX5, as well as, madMapper and programming in Quartz Composer. These programs have many different uses, for live streaming, broadcast, to live visual performances, projection mapping, and visual programming. In my 20s I performed live visuals for corporate events, underground parties, and clubs all over California. I'm looking forward to seeing what I come up with creatively.

These graphics will be leveraged from Paintbrain's site backplates and slated for production after the Paintbrain site launches. One of the potential issues that should be interesting to solve, is the possibility of the patterned flood graphics flickering, likely to produce an undesired look as the camera moves throughout the scenes.
