NY subway poster projectposted by Yuko Shimizu
client: MTA New York City Public Transit art director: Amy Hausmann, Lydia Bradshaw Hot off the press is a poster I just finished for MTA. You may start seeing this at subway stations near you later this year.
It was really easy to work with MTA who gave me a lot of freedom. The only challenge was that the audience is 'everyone who uses public transit in New York area'.
The image I ended up coming up with is based on my childhood memory of taking Metro North down from Westchester Country and being awed by the massive and gorgeous Grand Central Station.
Actress Valerie Cruzposted by Zach Trenholm
client: Village Voice 2/16/11 art director: Jesus Diaz Although I've done stuff for the Voice over the years, this is my first time with Jesus and he actually found me here (Just re-read that. Note to self; always remember to pronounce as 'Hay-sus'...).
Great guy, joy to work with....
Anyhow, Valerie plays a South American doc on a new TV show called 'Off The Map' (think a hotter, more humid 'Grey's Anatomy' & all the grab-ass that encumbers & you've got it...).
Not terribly well-known (yet), she gets spotlight interviewed by Michael Musto towards the end of his column.
