Here’s another fine example of a designer making use of my typeface called Bad Blocks. This comes from Shayne Ivy, who created this poster for VH1 Classic’s Decades Rock Live series, and lo-and-behold, that’s the one and only Elvis Costello!
Nice work, indeed, Shayne. Thanks for sharing your work and I’m glad you found my typeface helpful for your project.
Hands-down the best animated family movie so far this year.
As a belated birthday present to our son Robbie, my wife and I took him to see Curious George this past weekend. I meant to take him the weekend after his third birthday, but somehow it slipped by me and we didn’t get around to it. So when we finally decided to go, the plan was to treat him to a movie–which he had yet managed to sit through–and to just give him a day just for him.
As we got out of the van and walked through the parking lot, Robbie surprisingly held both our hands and even did that swing/jump thing every time we took a step. He normally wants to walk on his own, but I wonder how special it made him feel to have mom and dad all to himself. Even as we walked through the mall to kill a little time before our show, he never strayed too far and at times even wanted me to carry him (or as he says “hug”) as we walked. He even wanted to ride on my shoulders a couple of times. I can’t help but remember the look of happiness on his face as he just took in everything around him. You’d think we never take him anywhere, but I think it was something more than that.
