It had been my original intention to update the blog on a day-by-day basis as I whipped around the FITC Toronto events, but I discovered quickly that my downtime was going to be very small. I had minutes between events, meals and parties so the time spent on the web was just enough to make quick Twitter blasts every so often. If only I had an iPhone to be better connected, everyone else seems to have one :)

This being the case, I’ll be posting a big sum-up once I get home on all of the awesome stories and fantastic people I met along the way. A huge pleasure meeting all of you.

I’m currently in the hotel lobby waiting to check-out, so more to come once I’m back in Halifax. Thanks for everything, Toronto!

After a few months of anticipation, my pal Chris Toms and I will be departing from Halifax to Toronto tomorrow morning to attend the FITC festival from April 25th to April 28th. We will be staying in the heart of things at the Hilton.

So, from here on out I will be taking the blog and Twitter mobile and will be updating from the road as we wander about the presentations and parties with like-minded creatives. I’m unable to bring any posters, but will be armed with Signalnoise bookmarks for anyone who would like one. Just flag me down :)

Hope to see you there!

Here is yet another image from the Red Reflection project I recently completed. With this sequence, I was supplied with four straight photos of the model and I was to add all of the textures, splashes, lighting and effects. I had a great time working on this image with the multiple angles and zooms.

Shown above are before and after shots, click them to see a larger version of both.

Here is another photo composition for the Red Reflection project. I was supplied with the sraight photo of the lady on a white background and added all of the additional textures, lighting and effects.

Check out the before and after shot above to see how many addtional elements were added.

My Network poster will soon be added to the Signalnoise Store, but I wanted to do a pre-release giveaway before making it available for purchase. So, here is your chance to win the first copy of Network at 18″ x 24″ on semi-gloss poster stock.

To enter, all you have to do is comment on this post and be sure to include your email address so I can contact the winner. Additionally, drop one or two links in there to websites you follow for art and design-related inspiration. I like discovering new art-culture websites, and this would be a good time to spread the word to others. The winner will be picked via a random number generator I built. No foolin’ :)

I am off to FITC Toronto on Friday so I will leave this contest open until I return on Wednesday, April 29th. Only one comment per person please, multiple comments will be omitted. Good luck!
