LA RIOTS @ Port City Music Hall poster

Just finished working on a new poster for the Port City Music Hall here in Portland, Maine. It's for my friends bryan at Hillytown.com and Andrew at Neon Garden. This was a tough poster to print, it's 5 colors, on 3 different color papers, so a good variation of colors and prints here, some work better than others but I'm pretty happy with it. I havent put this many colors in a prin in awhile so I wanted to push myself and do that many colors.
I also printed about 125 of these, and giving 100 of them to the music hall. Here's some process shots.
cutting paper is not as fun as it seems.
the basement!

I finally put in a hanging wire in my studio so I;m not putting the prints all over the floor and hallway to let them dry. This is probably one of the best things I've decided to do yet! very helpful.

Fucked Up (band) pictures

Took some photos at a show the other night at SPACE Gallery of the band Fucked Up, pretty awesome show! and one that SPACE doesent usually see. I was really glad about the outcome of people as well since there was a huge snow storm that day. Here's a few shots from the show, to see all of the photos I took please go to the www.emblemstudio.org post.

New Poster!!!

I just printed some posters for my buddy Bryan, he's putting on a show at Slainte in Portland on the 30th. I was glad he came to me to print up some posters, mostly because I really want to get into printing posters for people, bands, places etc. and second because I'm alittle rusty at it and these were the first things I;ve printed in my new studio, and the first time I burned a screen here, which was actually alot easier than i though. thanks Beth for letting me know how long it takes! 5 minutes to be exact on our light table in the basement.
I'm pretty happy wiht how they turned out, the images I had gotten printed at Kinkos were alittle bit off so I made the whole print alittle bit offset, I'm let down by Kinkos. oh well i kinda like it better this way actually. The whole idea was to make it a pretty simple poster and to use the pink and yellow which were in Bryan's first file he sent me, I thought having the bright colors would be awesome and very noticeable when put up everywhere. Possibly get people to actually see the posters and wonder what there all about if they maybe dont know the bands.
Well here are some progress shots from the night.
