Design and a Time Machine
Posted on October 23, 2008, under Convoluted, Photography, Print Design, Web Design, Work.
There are a lot of things that I pay attention to when I see top notch advertisements. Design is something I like and something that I try to do well so I pay special attention to details. Here are some of the things that go throuh my mind with this advertisement. What is trying to be communicated? Why are they telling me? What is the catch? What are the drinks for? How does one “eat” lard? It was my understanding that it had to go in something… Is there such a thing as lard casarole? I digress.
It all comes down to this on this particular advertisement. It simply has to be an advertisement that is very time sensitive. Yesterday it worked. Today? Not so much.
Ice Is Nice

Vanella Ice
This last Saturday was McFadden’s two year anniversary. As an OSU campus bar I expected what one might expect. Drinking drunk people gyrating and drinking more. I have been to this bar many times on assignment for U-Weekly; an OSU weekly newspaper and I knew that this night would be a special addition to the gyrating drunk-fest…
Rob Van Winkle was supposed to show up and have some fun. I was told that he was there last year but I could gather no more information than that. I had no idea what to expect and all that I kept having pop up in my mind was those times I saw him on VH1; Angry and throwing fists at photographers. This was a little concerning to me as I was to be one of those people pointing a camera at him. Click! Click! Punch!!
I missed his entrance and I have yet to figure out how. I was there at the front door. I suppose that he was just sneaky. Finally a cool bouncer came up to me and said I was just told that he is up stairs in the back corner. I quickly said thank you and ran up to see.
He was there and there was no way to get near him. It was freaking packed. After trying to do some shots holding the camera above my head and hoping for the best I decided to get a little more aggressive. By “aggressive” I mean that I walked over to the bar manager and politely asked if I could come behind the bar and get some shots. They were nice and let me. This is where I acquired the best shots of the eve.
You can see some of the shot on my Flickr page.
