Facebook Icons


I

A while back I doodled some Facebook icons for my wife On, myself, and a dog named Rudolph. Embarrassingly I'm not sure what kind of dog Rudolph is... but he is an avid Facebook user... and quite a character.  -tod

AARP spot

A few years ago I was asked to create some concept art for an AARP commercial pitch. The agency wanted something with... "movement and vigor. Youthful... but not juvenile." So I worked up several approaches... including this one... "Bruce E Petrie... Rocket Man!"

Need for Speed

A while back I did a t.v. commercial pitch. I was asked to create a number of quick concept designs to give the client an idea of what I was thinking. The main drive behind the commercials concept was pitting speed, against things that... well... ideas that weren't so speedy.
The client also requested designs that had the feel of a children's book.

I thought it might be fun to try out some designs on white... perhaps using paper textures and such in the spot. Alas, I didn't get the job... but had a few fun afternoons putting everything together.
