Backlight, iPhone, iPad, Marketing, Logos and wow

I’ve been so busy! I recently was asked to design and lead marketing efforts for a USA-based startup iPhone and iPad software developer and it’s been quite an adventure. I love technology (and my iPhone!) and I’m learning a lot about software development while I develop the look and feel of the company’s branding. I’m even contributing my ideas for new apps and the way our clients’ apps should look and feel. It’s a lot of fun!

I’m really excited to try the iPad. I think it’s going to be a real game changer for the way we interact with the web, as well as our entertainment content. I can’t wait to see my designs on that sexy device!

The company’s name is Backlight Software. Here’s the logo I just designed for them:

Muffin has blueberries for brains so she doesn’t always make very good decisions when she’s having fun.

Working on designs for Muffin and Cupcake. They are super cute and make me happy.

Toy2R n Me

Today I met with Kevin Winnik of Toy2R USA. He’s a cool guy that knows a lot about the comics and toy business. It was nice to meet someone that knows the business.

I’m not going to jinx any projects by discussing it here– but I wanted to share the wicked cool Qee figs he was thoughtful enough to share with me. (my house of women love the metallic Qees almost as much as Muffin and Cupcake… almost!)

I did a ton of stuff for independent skateboard manufacturer popdeck (now part of Infectious)

Here’s some of my favorites.
