BUSY Busy Business
10.24.2005
It has been an absolute mad house around here recently. I've needed to do updates for sometime, unfortunately I've been too backed up to get to the site.
Solidoxygen Studios and 3rd Dimension Design has just moved into a new office. The moving coupled with numerous client projects going on has made a hectic working
state. I have been working with Idea Art to finish up the stationery project. I have also been working with Kyrenfaire- getting them ads for the Renaissance Magazine issue. I have also done some revisions for Lean Associates, and just rapped up a photoshoot with 3 new Visionportfolio models. There are going to be some changes to
the Tutorial Section soon. I'm going to break it up to facilitate new sections. I will be adding a section immediately for Macromedia Flash Tutorials. I also will begin work soon for the Hickory College Church of Christ site, as well as a video for them as well. Absolute craziness.
