Inspired both by a cone of light from a projector as well as a strip of segmented film, we created this clean, simple logo as a timeless piece of identity for Tacoma Film Festival.

Our beanies off to Artist Home for another incredible festival. The first annual TIMBRRR! Winter Music Festival ranged from cozy, intimate, happiness to crazy, dance-y happening. We can’t wait for the next one!
Here are some of our snapshots from this weekend:

First Night Tacoma outdid themselves once again—downtown Tacoma was a alive and kicking during last night’s carnivalesque New Year’s Eve celebrations.
Happy New Year Tacoma!

Somewhere down in the beaches of Los Angeles lives a surfing, film-editing woodworker who travels the world gathering pieces of wood and designing and crafting custom high-end furniture. His artistic pieces breathe with life and personality.
And we had the privilege of creating a logo and identity for him that would serve as a fresh face for his work as well as a functional brand for his pieces.
We had the opportunity to once again shoot this short live music film for our friends at Yours Truly—this one of Seattle indie darlings The Head and the Heart.
We continue to work with the good folks at Artist Home on their successful TIMBER! Outdoor Music Festival as it puts on its coziest winter coat and becomes TIMBRRR! Winter Music Festival (see what they did there?)
The poster we designed above takes its cues from the summer festival’s poster we designed, but with a much more chill effect (we hope!) and all still centered on a modified version of the TIMBER! logo we designed. (more…)
When it comes to our wedding division The Heart Dept., we’re never ones to resist getting tantalizing close-ups of tulle and shortcake. So earlier this spring Sarah delighted in filming a little slice of the glittered, glammy spectacle that is the Northwest Vintage Wedding Fair.
Sarah reports :
Let’s just say that there was enough vintage elegance and eye candy and antiquated treasures and sweetly scripted invitations and feathery fascinators and Broaches (with a capital B) to put an F. Scott Fitzgerald garden party to shame. I would tell you there was vintage chocolate, but thank goodness there wasn’t—just freshly made, oh so au (more…)
This is the poster we designed for the 2013 iteration of the annual Squeak ‘n’ Squawk music festival in Tacoma, Wash. If there was a squeaking and squawking animal that was the festival’s mascot, this would be one of its feathers.
Peter spent a couple days on a road trip to and from California’s northern coast to shoot footage of goats and goat cheese for our friends at Arcata’s Cypress Grove Chevre.
Here are some photos from the trip—we can’t wait to show you the finished films!

“FRAGILE music equipment” is written in big, stenciled letters on the crate holding Sam Coomes’ keyboard. Which must be a joke, because if you’ve ever seen Quasi perform, you know the extent to which he brutalizes his instrument—whaling on the keys with his fists, banging chords out with his forehead, lifting it up and bashing it against his chest, and basically subjecting it to any other ferocious paroxysm that seems to consume his passions at the time. Meanwhile, Janet Weiss assaults her drum kit in a far less violent but no less expressive manner—measuring out chord and tempo changes with virtuosic artistry. Quasi’s was a performance not to be missed—enjoy “The Rhino” as seen stage-side from their Main Stage set at the first annual TIMBER! Music Festival.
