Some words from our magic man

Monday, September 22nd, 2008 Posted in Magic, Thoughts | No Comments »

First of all, I’d like to send a big WELL DONE! to our ‘tecchie team’ for bringing the new website to life! A special pat on the back goes to Nick and Chris – I’m liking your style chaps!

We’ve all worked pretty exhaustively on the Agency re-brand, and I for one am delighted with where we have now placed ourselves. I’m very excited about the direction that the Agency is now taking. It’s a pleasure to be working with our small, but perfectly formed group of people. From our studio’s point of view, the new identity gives us a great platform to push the boundaries and demonstrate our creative talents.

From now on, with the constantly changing graphic format we have chosen for our Agency brand, there will be no room for complacency, and we will now be continuously be asking ourselves, ‘what’s next?’ Anyway, as this is a blog! Here are a few bits about myself… I’ve worked in the industry for nearly 20 years (oh my god! time really does fly!) and I’m still loving the design business, probably now more than ever!

My other passion is close-up magic. I love performing my card tricks, and it’s a great feeling to completely bewilder people right under their nose! Plus, it does tend to get me a few invites to some the best parties!

I also play a bit of classical guitar. I get together with another 3 guitarists every other Sunday and we stumble and twang our way through some great classical pieces. Actually, one of our group is a classical guitar tutor at a local private school, he never stumbles and twangs – he’s a devastatingly good player! I hate him.

I live out in the countryside with my lovely girlfriend and our Pony, called ‘Moonlight’. He’s a great little chap, who’s only ambition in life is to spend each day eating as many carrots and apples as he possibly can.

So, for anyone still reading this…I admire your endurance! and I’ll post again soon with more news, thoughts and juicy gossip from behind the closed doors at Open Door Design!
