Three weeks into my current contract with Omniture, I’ve completed many projects for the Omniture Sales Kickoff. Their thematic concept relates to various historical achievements: Great Pyramid, Great Wall, Eiffel Tower, Combustion Engine, Microchip, all building up to Omniture itself. Above are two banner designs: one of my favorite drafts that wasn’t selected, and the final. Below are some smaller banners, the right pair are finals, and the left an unused concept.

Here’s a simple sketch I was working on a few days ago, just added some simple color in Photoshop. I’m finding that I often have a great deal of anxiety about starting an illustration project, even a sketch, but that once begun, it’s easy to be focused and just go with it. That seems like another good reason to be sketching more often, when I have the opportunity.

I’ve gone corporate, as Brad would say. My latest client, Omniture, invited me to work on site a couple days per week over the next couple months. I’m working in the marketing department with Steve Gustavson and Ben Child and having a great time with the projects I’ve had so far. Hopefully I’ll be able to display some of that work later.
