Bleutuna ProductionCliq Chart

As I was working on the Bleutuna Limited website and content, I started to think of how the site was laid out and how I was conveying information. And it was boring.

The way I’d set up the infrastructure, there was going to be tons of similar content and a ridiculous workload to get it all formatted. Even worse – no one was going to read it. There was nothing compelling to get users to actually engage with it. My eyes were glazing over and that’s always a bad sign.

That’s when my experience with working with salespeople came into play.

Salespeople love charts. They love diagrams. They love illustrations that show how things work together and the bulleted lists that go along with them. I began to think about what ProductionCliq was and how we fill in the gaps to a production, making sure all the necessary bits are there.

I started with puzzle pieces, but that wasn’t film centric enough. Then I played with a Bolex camera and its lenses, but there simply weren’t enough different elements to illustrate all the points and it didn’t represent what we do 100%. Bleutuna Limited doesn’t really shoot film. We shoot HD.

A hard drive was too tech heavy, so I looked around my room and found a big stack of HD-CAM tapes that hold all the original footage for my senior film, Sons of God, and then it all made sense.

The result is below and I’m pretty damn happy with it. First, because it’s not red. Second, because it’s a more flat, less gradiated vector drawing which I enjoy doing. Third, because I think it works extremely well in illustrating what Bleutuna Limited does, how we provide the necessary pieces to make a project a success and showcases that we work on many different types of projects in a concise manner.

New Year’s Eve Bash Ad/Flyer

The Wolfpack Film Group, along with tons of sponsors such as the Texas Motion Picture Alliance, is putting together a huge New Year’s Eve Party to celebrate the Texas Entertainment Industry. Oh, and portions of the proceeeds go to the WPOS Homeless Documentary.

The Karma Lounge in a swanky, downtown spot here in Austin, Texas, and so the goal was to create an equally swanky advertisement to appear in publications such as Insite Magazine.

I looked through a significant number of flyers, everything from raves to parties to things we won’t mention here. Most of them had scantily-clad attractive ladies as the crux of their marketing pitch. I chose to go a different direction.

Texas Entertainment Industry New Year's Eve Bash!

The client wanted something bold, lush, and rich – which, honestly, keeps bringing me back to RED. I swear, if you didn’t know better, you’d think red was my favorite color. For some reason, maybe because I’ve done red really well in the past, clients seem to want me to keep working with it. This time round, though, I was able to add some pretty strong blue and orange elements that I think give this piece a different look than say the Lionheart or Red Luvs Ya brands.
