For Conflict of Interest, the main character is the author of a ridiculously popular blog that begins to make big waves in the political world. So if you’re going to have a movie that is about a blog, you should probably at least have a blog design. And shots of people surfing it.
I wanted it to feel a little militaristic – representative of the grass-roots sort of revolutionary mindset that Outraged influences within his readers. It also had to have a sense of Mombaire. The logo features the Mombarian “star” prominently, the star that’s seen on both the Mombarian flag and the Kimaiyo flag during the film.
To view a “live” version of the design, Go here! Otherwise, just look at the design below:
Gray/Black, white and red. You may notice that the WhisperWire collateral, the iD3 collateral and the Red McCombs Media collateral use a very similar color palette. This was not my doing. Well, it was sort of. But not really.
WhisperWire I absolutely chose – but it was this WhisperWire collateral, and showing it to other clients, that ended up inspiring iD3 and Red McCombs Media to take note and want to see something similar.
Hopefully, the rest of my oeuvre shows how much I love other colors – like green, purple and orange. Red and Gray/Black are just bold, sexy colors and people seem to gravitate toward their starkness. It’s interesting, when you think about it.
In an effort to get some of my older work up on the site to show the breadth of my design abilities, I’m not going to be writing anything on this first pass.
Instead, I’ll just post the images associated with that project. Once I’ve made a dent in this backlog, then I’ll go back and add in some text, explaining the project, what it was, etc. Occasionally I’ll write something if there may be confusion, but in general, the work will have to speak for itself for a little while.
