Design presentation at Texas A&M University!

Gavin Braman 2.28.2012 0

Martin and I are giving a presentation about drifting creatives, branding and a little responsive web design for a design class at Texas A&M University. We’ve been working on the That Conference site which will be beautiful and responsive! yay! So we just decided to use it as a bit of a case study, even though it isn’t quite finished yet, but it will be very soon! And we’re super excited about it.

Here’s our presentation if you want to check it out. PRESO

Beautiful Women Inspire.

Just wanted to share some of the other random, yet visually exciting things we do. Take a peak at some photos from my last few photo shoots.

For me it’s all about the adventure, not just the final image. The entire experience is fun. Finding new and unusual locations—off the beaten path. Connecting with creative and beautiful models. Styling and experimenting with light and shadow. Stumbling onto cool processes, methods or effects in post-production. It’s nice because it’s just something I do for myself, there’s no pressure and I can do exactly what I want. Experimenting outside of what I do on a daily basis is really important for my brain. Anytime you do the same thing over and over, you’re bound to get stale (no matter how much you love your job, and I really love my job), but when I mix in outside inspiration, or try new things, it really amps up my design work.

I stumbled onto this duotone process below, loved it and I’m now using it in a client project. Real world application!

That Conference

Currently working on the branding, website and all kinds of fun marketing materials for That Conference. Just wanted to share a little bit! Much more to come.

The first phase of the website is moving along quite nicely. You can check it out here: thatconference.com

That Conference will be in August of 2012 at the Kalahari Resort, Wisconsin Dells, WI and will be a developer’s dream summer camp. It’s going to be pretty epic, so if you plan to attend one conference next year, make it one where you can learn about the geekiest stuff from top developers and then ride a giant water slide immediately after. Be sure to sign up on the site to stay up to date. Or follow them on twitter: @thatconference
