I just got a copy of the Print Regional Annual. Here's a look at the piece that got in.

Jason's Deli is about to be an even healthier restaurant. As of next week, they will be the first chain restaurant in America to no longer use Trans Fat or MSG, as well as a third ingredient that I'm not at liberty to talk about. The Butler Bros have teamed up with Jason's deli to promote this new direction in the form of a viral announcement video.

I was asked to use my patience with an exacto, and as the Bros put it, my "anal-retentiveness", to help with a few scenes. Have you ever tried cutting words out of margarine or jello? It's messy. Fun, but messy. I'll post a link to the video soon.

The logo created for photographer Casey Dunn will be featured in the fifth volume of the LogoLounge book series, which showcases international identity design by some of today's leading designers. 2,000 logos were selected for publication out of over 33,000 submissions. LogoLounge 5 will be released June 2009.

I've just learned that I will have work featured in Print Magazine's Regional Design Annual for 2008. The magazine's competition receives more than 20,000 entries each year for consideration, and highlights the best work from each region of the United States. The annual is released in November 08.

A limited edition hand-pulled print honoring Swayze's greatest role (up to this point), as the philosophizing bouncer Dalton in Roadhouse. If you're drawing a blank look up the DVD cover. For those of you who haven't seen it, please do. It's possibly the single greatest action movie.

I know some of you are saying, "What about Point Break?" I'm definitely up for debating this. Prints are ten dollars. Proceeds go to pancreatic cancer research. 9" by 12" on off white paper.
