cmyplay

Thanks to those still visiting cmyplay. I’ve been going through a lot lately and I will post about it when appropriate. I’ll leave you with some urban-knowledge dispensed by the best source for such profound advice – a two-man novelty band.

Today marks the end of my fourth week at the studio. It’s been pretty nerve wracking, and I’ll be the first to admit that I still have a way to go before I’m completely comfortable.

On the upside though, I saw my first project on TV. It was a bittersweet moment because it was pretty exciting seeing it inbetween the other incessant advertising. At the same time all I could focus on were the mistakes that seemed to glare out at me.

This is a still from the project. All copyrights belong to Studio Zoo, or to DStv. I’m still not quite clear on that one.

As you may have noticed, cmyplay has an updated interface. Said interface has given away what I’ve been working towards with on the site so far. An online portfolio is in the works, along with a retail facility. Now I don’t want to give it away just yet, but it should launch with a certain lifestyle product in mind.

The above is a poster image that I have reworked from a previous project that I completed. With Lost Season 5 set to start on South African screens only at the end of March, I’m willing to admit that the typographic treatment owes more than just a little to the greatest series on TV. The words are from John Donne’s Elegy XX. With my hands being so busy with things that are unfortunately not bearing any visible fruit, I felt that it would be quite appropriate (even though in context, the poem may not be).

I must be the only person in the country that doesn’t make use of bit-torrent.
