My fiance and I went through several revisions to get here. We were both happy with the outcome and the response was great. http://bybrettjohnson.com/609439/Wedding-Invitations http://bybrettjohnson.com/599774/Houswarming-Gift http://bybrettjohnson.com/599774/Houswarming-Gift Mon, 30 Aug 2010 02:31:09 +0000 by Brett Johnson 599774 This was my first short film (so don't be too critical). This was also my entry in the 24 Hour Film Festival in Knoxville, TN. There were a few requirements: 1. Had to be made in 24 Hours (writing, shooting and editing) 2. Had to be 4 min. or less 3. Had to include three specified elements (dictionary, a Landlord, and the line "Try and be incognito when you meet them.") http://bybrettjohnson.com/599774/Houswarming-Gift http://bybrettjohnson.com/382956/Party-Invitation-Site http://bybrettjohnson.com/382956/Party-Invitation-Site Thu, 29 Apr 2010 00:13:02 +0000 by Brett Johnson 382956 <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/382956/GraduationParty.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="529" align="left" /> I threw this site together for my sister's graduation party. Mailing invitations was going to be slow and expensive and Facebook lacks the visual customization to make a proper invite for the occasion. The site was built with HTML, CSS, and Google Docs to handle the form. http://bybrettjohnson.com/382956/Party-Invitation-Site http://bybrettjohnson.com/359490/Valley-Beautiful-Beacon http://bybrettjohnson.com/359490/Valley-Beautiful-Beacon Wed, 14 Apr 2010 21:13:28 +0000 by Brett Johnson 359490 Previous&nbsp;/&nbsp;Next image&nbsp;(1 of 3)<img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/359490/1.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="445" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/359490/2.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="445" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/359490/3.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="445" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/359490/web.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="503" align="left" /> This redesign was focused on improved readability, organization, and modernization. I moved away from 6 cramped columns to 4 more comfortable ones. Color coding, stronger headlines, simplified elements, and miscellaneous structural changes were used to improve organization. The major change in style was done in effort to differentiate us from a competing newspaper. Since the Beacon is relatively young (created in 2005), it seemed appropriate to go more modern, and more than reasonable to rebrand (especially considering quality of the old nameplate). Along with the newspaper, I redesigned the web site vbbeacon.com. It was built using Squarespace, custom CSS, and a little JQuery. http://bybrettjohnson.com/359490/Valley-Beautiful-Beacon http://bybrettjohnson.com/358094/Homecoming-Queen http://bybrettjohnson.com/358094/Homecoming-Queen Wed, 14 Apr 2010 00:17:57 +0000 by Brett Johnson 358094 <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/358094/Homecoming-Queen-2.jpg" border="0" width="375" height="600" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/358094/Homecoming-Queen-1.jpg" border="0" width="375" height="600" align="left" /> These posters were made for my sister's high school homecoming campaign. http://bybrettjohnson.com/358094/Homecoming-Queen http://bybrettjohnson.com/357768/Vegetable-Crackers http://bybrettjohnson.com/357768/Vegetable-Crackers Tue, 13 Apr 2010 21:35:21 +0000 by Brett Johnson 357768 Previous&nbsp;/&nbsp;Next image&nbsp;(1 of 3)<img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/357768/Vegetable-Crackers-1.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="810" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/357768/Vegetable-Crackers-2.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="810" align="left" /> <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/357768/Vegetable-Crackers-3.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="810" align="left" /> The assignment was to create an organic snack and the necessary packaging. http://bybrettjohnson.com/357768/Vegetable-Crackers http://bybrettjohnson.com/332578/Crossbar http://bybrettjohnson.com/332578/Crossbar Tue, 13 Apr 2010 21:15:56 +0000 by Brett Johnson 332578 <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/4653/332578/crossbar.png" border="0" width="640" height="2072" align="left" /> The assignment was to create an identity for nutritional energy bar. http://bybrettjohnson.com/332578/Crossbar http://bybrettjohnson.com/59062/New-Wave http://bybrettjohnson.com/59062/New-Wave Fri, 14 Aug 2009 15:41:11 +0000 by Brett Johnson 59062 This was a practice project made in After Effects to compliment the CD design below that I did in school.
