San Diego Asian Film Foundation
I’ve been given the opportunity to work with and re-design the website for the San Diego Asian Film Foundation for their 2009 festival held here in San Diego, California.
This year will be the San Diego Asian Film Festivals 10th year holding this event in San Diego. I had the chance to attend last year and it was a lot of fun. A lot of really good films and interesting documentaries were shown at last years festival and I am sure this year will be just as good.
The festival runs October 15th through the 29th at the UltraStar Mission Valley 7
at Hazard Center.

Sycuancasino.com
My recent project that I’ve been working on has finally been released. The project was a re-design for Sycuan Casino located in San Diego, Ca.
I started working for Sycuan in November of 2008, and once hired on they wanted a re-design of their current site as well as launching a new marketing campaign.
It was a long process, but here are the results.

Macworld 2009
Well a new year and a new Macworld. However, unfortunately nothing worth even mentioning except for the new macbook. I guess with the release of the iPhone and iPod touch, there’s not much to come up with for a few more years. But they did release the new Macbook with NO keyboard!
