How Branding Launched Michael Jackson




I was reading on article about Michael Jackson's solo career and how he branded himself on Print magazine. But beside that I choose this pieces because of its illustration and watercolor. I really have the desire learning how to work color and adding it to some of my design pieces. This Michael illustration is nice because complements well with light hint of color in the background. Dont Stop Till You Get Enough was the  first big hit form Off the Wall when the album that distinguished Michael from the rest of his family of 5. I think this piece distinguishes him because your eye leads straight to Michael first.

Jolly Time | Museum


Source Communication Arts

I came across this nice website for Jolly Time popcorn/ museum. I really enjoyed looking at the structure and history in making of Jolly Time popcorn and the brand itself.  The Brand really explains for itself ( It has the feeling of enjoying popcorn when watching a movie or some sort of gathering etc...) I like the movement of icons almost like popcorn popping. The design layout is fun, inviting, and fits in today's style or genre.

Art of Whimsical Lettering


 I am came across this book article from Print magazine, This is a useful book of tools and techniques discovering your handwriting and different techniques using all sorts of pens, inks, brushes, markers, paints and pencils.  It would help those who are seeking to become a typographic artist and would like to sell their font professionally. This kit comes with a perfect pen hand lettering kit that many graphic designers might want to invest in. I really like the cover of the book which makes it stand out because of its hand generated font that is one of a kind. It distinct from other books that usually made computer generated.
