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 [...]
I’ve made some much-needed changes around the site. My new portfolio line up consists of: Technical Illustration Highly detailed renderings of technical subjects. Line Illustration Line drawings that explain how things work. Infographics Graphic, stylized illustrations and icons. Motion Graphics Animated illustrations. I hope that the work in each portfolio seems more consistent, and better communicates the [...]
It’s been a busy summer! Working with great clients on really interesting projects, teaching my robot intern how to draw, developing my editorial illustration portfolio, and now adding a little polish to this site. In addition to the sliding showcase above, I’ve also added new work in my Technical Illustration and Infographics portfolios. Take a [...]
I’ve always been into music but only recently picked up a guitar and started to learn to play. I had seen guitar tablature (or “tabs”) before, but only knew it as some sort of esoteric shorthand musical notation encoded in monospaced gibberish; a specialized language for people who had studied music and practiced guitar to [...]
Some fellow techies and I have started Technical Illustrators.org, a blog and community by and for technical illustrators. We feature portfolios of colleagues and share tutorials, techniques, resources, tips & tricks of the trade. With more and more of the traditional in-house technical illustration jobs moving overseas, techies are finding themselves out on their own. [...]
My site is currently undergoing maintenance. Everything should be working, but you might encounter a bug here or there. I’ll be wrapping this up as soon as possible. In the meantime, check out my Technical Illustration Portfolio.
I’ve been receiving questions from a number of people curious about technical illustration. For the benefit of anyone else who’s interested, here’s some of the questions and answers: What does a technical illustrator do? What is technical illustration? “Technical illustrators create highly accurate renderings of machinery, instruments, scientific subjects…technology, cartography, or virtually any subject that [...]
Marketel has been recognized with an Applied Arts Interactive Media Award for Leaveless, Air Canada’s environmental responsibility site. I provided illustrations for the site, in the style of safety brochures found on planes, to explain Air Canada’s safety measures against climate change. Well done Marketel and Air Canada!
Air Canada’s new environmental responsibility site, Leaveless, is now live. Featuring flight safety styled technical illustrations by me, the site explains the company’s green initiatives including more fuel efficient aircraft, weight reductions and trials with hydrogen fueled ground vehicles. Hats off to Air Canada for taking measures for a greener world.
New to the site is a phantom illustration of a cordless circular saw featuring the next generation of rechargable batteries. Nanophosphate lithium-ion batteries are said to recharge in minutes rather than hours, have ten times the life cycle and double the capacity of current rechargable batteries. These batteries are currently being tested in consumer electronics, [...]
Made a couple additions to the site: An illustration of Boston Dynamics robotic mule, BigDog, and a spot illustration for Canadian Woodworking Magazine. Also made some minor layout changes and major backend changes that should improve the efficiency of the site.
Many thanks to Charlene for featuring my Camry Hybrid Cutaway Illustration and my website on Illustrophile. My work is in good company on her blog.
