Some time ago I had the absolute honour of redesigning the Nerdcore Rising website for director: Negin Farsad. I have also stayed on board to help her out with updates along the way and continue to work at optimizing the website and blog for search engines. Nerdcore Rising is currently ranked #5 in google for the keyword “nerdcore“.
Nerdcore is the newest, dorkiest wave of hip-hop, born out of the internet and made possible by computer-obsessed geeks. “Nerdcore Rising” follows MC Frontalot, the godfather of nerdcore, on his first national tour. Along the way, Frontalot fanatics and music industry notables tell the story of this funny, fascinating, and unapologetically uncool cultural phenomenon.
Milka Vujnovic wanted to improve on our previous business card design. We decided to make the info side white to improve readability and switch the card’s orientation.
Milka Vujnovic is a lawyer and mediator located in Westdale Village, Hamilton who has practiced family law for 24 years. The palette used throughout her promotional materials were inspired by the colours in her office (which I might add is gorgeous). For this project I worked closely with Edana Brown from BMH Communications.
Aesthetics by Rachel is a local beauty spa here in Hamilton, Ontario that is owned by my good friend Chad’s girlfriend Rachel Duff. I was asked to create a logo and website for her. The site was built with Joomla and made so that Rachel could update mostly anything on it.
Jennifer Levine is a puppeteer and educator down in Montclair, New Jersey. Her puppet show The Miracle on Monroe Street was recently featured at Fringe NYC 2007. I was fortunate enough to meet her through MC Frontalot and have been working on her website ever since. Her old website was coded a few years back and did not conform to new web standards and eventually we decided to revamp and recode the layout.

The bliz; a local hamilton dj and good friend of mine asked me to create him a website. 2 designs later we came up with this vibrant little layout. The site is all CSS and xhtml and is using Joomla! as its content management system.
