Get excited; today marks the first product of our His & Her Project! We picked a phrase that has been blowing up on the internet for the last few weeks. If you haven’t seen Ylvis’ “The Fox” yet, you owe it to yourself to go see what all the fuss is about. It’s a music video for a silly song that’s …
His & Her Project
I hope everyone had a wonderful and relaxing Labor Day weekend — I know we sure did. It left us refreshed and got our creative juices flowing.

Penny Gaff, by Floor Plan – Lyric Video
Today I am very excited to be able to share with you a project I spent the last few months working on.

Stay Creative
I’ve been MIA for the past few days because my roommate from college came out to visit. I haven’t seen her since Jake and I got married (over 2 years ago). Seeing her was long overdue. We managed to squeeze a lot of stuff into a short amount of time. Now back to work, but I think my long to-do list has …
Corporate Identity Facts
For those of you who don’t know, my day job is animating a show on Yahoo! News called “Who Knew?”. It’s a minute and a half daily trivia show that tells little known facts about news topics and history. Every so often, we get a topic that I’m fairly passionate about (most often anything involving outer space). This week we …
