Latest CIO Connect magazine

Well, yes, it’s a tad late. I need some blogging discipline. Anyhow, here’s the latest copy of CIO Connect. This one was a bit more complex that usual in that the client wanted to include an eight-page report of their conference, and then get the magazine out as quickly as possible.

Print consultant David Richards suggested that we design, proof-read and print the rest of the magazine first, and then bang out the eight-page section in the few days after the conference. I sent this section to press, and the printers inserted the new pages into the earlier ones, then printed and bound it. Bish bosh.

Pulse magazine

A quick little post about a publication I design called Pulse. It’s a kind of cross between a newsletter and a magazine, being only 16 pages long at the moment. I create an illustration for the cover every issue, and each illustration features the arrow from the logo. This one’s about reaching base camp, and looking forward to the big climb.

CIO Connect Summer 2010

Here’s a quick note just showcasing a few of the pages from the latest CIO Connect magazine. The mag will be slightly updated in time for the next issue – nothing dramatic, just a refresh.

My motivation is always to keep it looking clean, fresh and professional, and never dull. Editor Mark Samuels is always pushing me to be creative & appreciates the importance of brilliant photography in making a magazine look as good as it can – making my job much easier, too.
