IEEE Wins Grand Neal Award

automated-external-defibrillator-illustration

A story I illustrated for IEEE Spectrum Magazine has been recognized with a Grand Neal Award for Best Single Article, a top honour in business-to-business editorial publications.

A Shocking Truth [PDF] exposed the design, engineering and maintenance problems that commonly cause automated external defibrillators (AEDs) to fail. My contribution was a half-page cutaway line illustration revealing the fatal flaws of the device.

Congratulations to everyone at IEEE, and thanks to Brandon for the great assignment!

Electriphobia Institute

I worked with Secret Location on a series of satirical instructional-style animations about electriphobia, the fear of the electric car, for the fictitious Electriphobia Institute. The campaign and website is to promote the all-electric Mitsubishi i-MiEV.

For more animations and motion graphics, check out my Motion Graphics portfolio.

Thanks to Sabrina for the awesome project!

Update: Electriphobia has won two 2013 FITC Awards in the Advertisement and Motion Graphics categories.
