Another Photoshop piece of design work.

I'm thinking about posting some video up here. Most likely through the Flash player, I don't know, maybe an mpeg. I've been having some problems with receiving some email. You can get to my email address under my profile in the upper right had corner, or email me direct at atticusyokitis@gmail.com

Time for Yourself

There was an interesting article from A List Apart about the four day week. Now this is not a new concept, but it got me thinking about what I spend time on, what I should be spending time on, and what I would like to be spending time on. The basic theme of the article is that there is never enough time in a week to accomplish everything a person "needs" to do and that working more hours isn't enough. I would like to talk a little about what you want to do and then give some suggestion on how to make that happen.

Just this week I decided to restart the blog, It's something that I really wanted to do but I never had the time to really make a cool page layout and gather up some of my best work and write some kick ass articles, I was pretty much trying to make it perfect. Well, I decided that it's never going to be perfect and that shouldn't stop me or anyone else to get their work out there, take up a hobby, or anything that one has been wanting to do.

The one quote that I really like was this "there will always be more to do. Working more won’t change that". Myself, and I'm sure many others, can relate to that in some of the personal projects we want to do. So it basically comes down to, there is not enough time, are you still going to do it or not.

Here a link to the article, I suggest you read it, it's very interesting.

A Wooden Screen
This one I was going after an almost screened on canvas look (if that makes any sense). I was trying to use a minimum of colors and a rough look and feel.

As always thanks for checking out some of my work and your feedback is much appreciated.

Another color study. This might make a good template someday. Until then, It'll stay up here.

Flower

Flower is still a work in progress. I want to bring it into After Effects (maybe Motion) and create some kind of a subtle dimention to this. This was orginally created to be desktop wallpaper but never went anywhere.

Cinematic

Another experimental one here. I was really happy how this turned out, with the roughness of the projector and the bright whites as if the film is being burnt by the bulb.

Shimmer

Shimmer
This is a experimental project (I think that's going to be a theme here) that was created in Photoshop using photographs of an Apple mouse, Palm, a factory as-well-as other various objects, then using layer blend modes to create an abstract high contrast type of effect.

The Relaunch

Hello everyone, this is Atticus Yokitis and this is relaunch of my blog. I had a hard time sticking with it last time so I decided to start posting a lot of my side projects and things I do in my free time. I haven't designed my layout for the blog yet but I just wanted to get something up here. The first piece that will be up shortly is titled Shimmer. Thanks for stopping by and drop me email or leave a comment if you have any suggestions or anything, I always enjoy the feed back. Thanks.
