Sep 09Coming down to the wire
Just a quick note: I don’t think most people know, but “down to the wire” actually refers to tires.
So tonight while working on the bildr video, I thought. This is kinda long, and it starts to change tone here. So I am splitting it up into 3 videos. So i should have it all done by tomorrow night. I decided to make a short 45sec one with it. It’s actually just the first part of the video, but it seemed to work so well on its own.
It took over 90 illustrations (many very small) to make this happen. But I believe the aesthetic came out very nice, and I think people will like it.
Let’s just hope it compels people to help make it real.
But bildrs’ not what’s coming down to the wire. In just a week I will be headed back to Tucson to get married. Wow did this sneak up on me. Ill be gone for less than a week, and im sure it will feel like the blink of an eye. I really just help it all comes together as well as I see it.
At work: I just hired a developer to take over the majority of that portion of my job so I can focus more on the design of the product. Right now it is so hard to know what will happen in the next few years, but I have a really rare opportunity for someone so soon out of school. Im in a position to really lead the design vision of a company. It’s a little scary in a way, but more liberating than anything. I hope years from now when I look back Im amazed at how much has happened and how much I was involved in. It’s been almost 3 months, and I already am.
