I Landed a New Job!
Today marks the second day of employment at my new job with Underbrand – a branding and marketing agency based in New Farm. Yes, New Farm meaning I only have to walk past a few woolsheds to get to the office – no more traffic! My official role is ‘Creative Executive’ which means I will be working on a bit of everything – print, web, photography etc. Already I have been able to work on some really exciting projects as well as learning a lot from the very talented Craig and Christine Bridge who are responsible for giving me this amazing opportunity. My biggest challenge right now is waking my brain up - as my previous job really was more mechanical/repetitive than anything else. I’m starting to ramble now so I will continue with a few more points of interest.

Neat Espresso
It had only recently occured to me earlier on into the year that ‘oldmate’ Wil had opened up his very own cafe in Brisbane. Upon hearing this I met up with him explaining my services that could help him out and he has just recently got back to me about taking action on this. We recently did a very spontaneous photo-shoot of his shop and a few concept shots that could be used in ads,print or even to be framed and hung in the shop. Our next step is developing a simple and clean website for the shop – so far I have registered the domain and setup a simple auto-size page for now with just the logo. I’ll be meeting up with Wil this weekend to discuss the website further and possibly score more free coffee off of him as a result. Check it out so far: http://www.neatespresso.com/

Ran/Run Live at the Troubadour – This Thursday
As previously stated in my last post, the very talented duo that make up Ran/Run will be playing there first real live show at the Troubadour this Thursday. So if you’re keen on checking it out: get in contact / check out the details / I will see you there.

Wide Awake Thoughts – Blog Launch
My amazingly talented and always fashionable roommate Jess has silently launched her blog over the weekend.  It features fashion/marketing/branding and all that jazz in relation to her own style, interests and Brisbane itself. It’s a little bare on content so far but she’s very quickly warming up to the concept of writing to strangers on the World Wide Web: wideawakethoughts.wordpress.com
