Generally with logo or branding stuff I do, I usually start with an existing typeface, but almost always tweak the letterforms. Some are drawn completely from scratch (the folio is a very small subset of my work) but that can very time-consuming. The leafy pattern is from a large collection of old printers marks etc. that have been made into vectors. They 'sway in the wind' on actual site. « less

Hey, I checked out your portfolio website. Cool stuff. For the typography, are you making your own fonts or using downloaded stuff? Obviously the City Beach is customized, but did you start with a font or just pen tool it up? Also...how do you do that leafy overlay pattern in that e-flyer? I see that kind of thing everywhere and it's usually animated to be budding and I want to know how to do it. As design and motion graphics are of particular interest to me, if you could give me some kind of idea, that'd be sweet. Ok, I know I just asked 4,000 questions, so get back to me at your leisure.

I checked out the clips of your films and the Roy G Biv rushes on YouTube, and they all look fantastic. Are you still working on Roy G Biv?
