Something different

Today I decided to do something different. Something related to the history of my country.
I did the designs of this t-shirts with two great discoverers from Portugal ... Bartolomeu Dias and Vasco da Gama.
Would you be able to use one of these?

One year ago I did this "music" and Luis Pereira (a good friend of mine) decided to make a video for it.
So, because this is a visual blog, i really would like to show the wonderful work he did ... giving the missing images to the music. Hope you like it.
btw, you can see other videos from Luis at http://www.youtube.com/borninoktober

new_and_previous

New intro image for my duran duran site at www.duran.com.sapo.pt
this is, from my point of view, the way that the original picture should be.




Previous intro, that I had since June at the same site, was a collection of posters I did for some contest.

Rewind

In this last days i was thinking in all of the designs I did over this years and ask to me self if i really found what I was looking for. From one point of view, I realised one of my dreams, and I am really honored to design the official poster for the concert that DURAN DURAN did in Lisbon in 2005 and also the official poster of the latest show (May'09) of JOHN WATTS (Fischer-Z) in Portugal. From other hand it's sad not to have the oportunity to follow my dream carrear with my "designs".

Depeche Mode Lisboa Poster (unofficial)

14 Nov 2008 will be day that DEPECHE MODE will do a concert at Lisbon, Portugal.
I had this ideia to make a poster using the latest photo from the band and the cover of the latest album and the result was this 3 posters for the gig.
btw the portuguese tour promotor couldn't use this because they have to obeys to specific and effective norms for all tour, ther so call, tour of the universe ... that's O.K. but i had to show my point of view ;)

L.A. Cover

After a long period without making any cover sleeve here is my new "designs".
At DD forum someone post the bootleg for "The Pearl in the Palms Hotel, Las Vegas, NV - July 10, 2009" and today in the same forum I found wonderful pictures from the show to work on ... and the result is what you see :)

did not win

Thank you all who have voted for my poster at www.duranduranmusic.com. You all have been wonderful.



After all, this is just a point of view:
- Cristiano Ronaldo don't earn too much
- Picasso's painting are not so expensive
- My poster wasn't the best

My Lovebox Ticket



This is the poster I submited to the DD Poster contest at http://www.duranduramusic.com/-
I end up doing 13 posters and I could only enter with one.

Why did I choose this one?
Well, i think this poster captures the viewer's attention immediately - at a single glance. This is something that could catch your eye from across the room ... then you go up to it to examine it more closely (even touch it).

I love the sense of space and the openness of it ...
[Less is more]

This poster was selected for the top15 for Lovebox.

Please vote for my poster at www.duranduranmusic.com till sunday, June 15th.

thanks
Nuno
