United Way Poster - Rejected Idea 01

Sometimes the concept is not quite right.  Just because it was rejected doesn't mean we didn't hang it up.  It was very effective.  Campaign made over a thousand dollars, without spending a dime.  What Would Jesus Do?

If you haven't seen "The Big Lebowski" yet, you are missing out on one of the best bowling movies ever.   Cohen brothers rule.

United Way Poster - Squirrel Drinking Beer

A poster that I designed for the company's yearly United Way Fundraising Campaign.  Decided to have an Oktoberfest Party to raise money.  What says party like a huge squirrel and a carousel horse hanging out enjoying a beer and the sunset.  Photograph was taken by Alex Williams.  You can imagine the odd looks I got walking around the pier in that outfit.
