It’s that time of the month again! This month’s theme for the Tacoma Cult Movie Club is “Just Say No!” For this month’s design, we decided to do a play on one of the original theatrical posters for “Reefer Madness,” the drug movie of all drug movies. This month’s poster design can be seen below (click on it for higher resolution version), and the original poster design can be seen here.

As always, the event will be held at the Acme Grub Cage. Admission and popcorn are free, but you must provide your own beverages. Check it out!

Hi guys, Holland Hume here. I decided to start talking to you guys myself on these news posts. A little more personal, don’t you think? : )

I decided to submit a design to The International Skateboard Art Competition 2009 at ArtOnGrip.com. Below is a smaller version of the design. The (semi) full resolution image can be found here.

“Even Tengus Get the Blues”

What do you think? I’d love to get your input on the design. Leave those comments and let us know what you think!

We’ll know January 15th if I win! Here’s to hoping!

Holland Hume — Mon, 23 Nov 2009 03:54:27 +0000

Our founder and lead designer Holland Hume was recently featured in the local Tacoma artist’s Boogeyman Show on Friday the 13th at Jazzbones in Tacoma. The Tacoma Weekly wrote an article on it which featured a shot of Holland’s painting! This is a tremendous honor and we would like to take the time to congratulate Holland on this.

We would also like to take this time to point out a new section of the site which features Holland’s artwork. Some of the pieces are for sale. Interested buyers can contact Holland via the email on our contact page.

We finally have our ad spaces set up! What a strange thing to have as a low priority, right? ; )

If you like our site and want to support what we do, it would really help us out for you to click on our google ads on the right side of the page. It only takes two seconds, and you’re supporting a really good cause…us!

Also, make sure to visit our clients in the link box to the left (the space rotates, so every different page/refresh will come up with another client). We don’t make money from that, but they’re such cool people that we want to share them with everyone.

Thanks!

Tänan!

We’ve recently finished a short web spot for our friends at Hip and Naughty.com, the alternative language tape group that’s sweeping the internet by storm. They’re a great bunch of guys with a great concept on their hands. We can’t wait for the Japanese volume!

You can watch the spot via youtube on our videos page, or for blip.tv support simply click the image below:

But what is Hip and Naughty? What exactly are they all about?
