Sorry this is so last minute, I'm on vacation this week and haven't spent much time in front of a computer. But listen up because this is soon - THIS FRIDAY!

I just started a new gig at Target. There are so many talented people here - somewhere around 50 designers and art directors. Aaron is my new office neighbor. I've always admired his work since he first started at bamboo design. This morning he posted his work online for the fist time ever. And it's pretty bad ass.

Allison has a new site up and is taking on freelance projects from what I hear. Some pretty fancy projects on here, worth a look.

According to popular belief this is the final tally of which agencies will bring home the most pins at the Show this Friday. Mono taking the lead followed by Olson then BBDO Minneapolis. I suppose we'll see what really happens tomorrow, but I'd put my money on Olson or Fallon. My prediction is Fallon for best of show (since they won the last two years, seems like a good bet) and Olson for quantity of pins based of the size of their agency and how much work they pump out. What do you guys think?
Don't forget December 3rd is the Toys in the Attic Poster show.
I'm excited to be getting these bad boys printed this week at Lovely. They'll be on a 160lb french black stock. The gray is a dark mix of silver. They'll be tasty. I'll post some up pics next week when I get em.
Nice branding and details on this beauty by my man Sam Soulek. Keep December 3rd open for the Toys In The Attic poster show. It's gonna be epic.
