I had the good fortune to work on The Simpson's style guide: a sprawling binder of art and product ideas that is given to manufacturers who sign up to license The Simpson's brand for clothing lines, toys, and posters. Here is an information-packed timeline of Simpson pop culture.

Storyboard for animated ads that ran on Plaxo's portal page. The concept communicates the benefit of using eCards: People will love you because you were thoughtful.
Designed to attract traffic around New Year's which is traditionally a slow time for ecards. The concept: have your fortune told and share it with the people you care about. Terry Chay did a great job programming it.
This is the most famous thing I've designed. The original work was for the cover of The Simpsons Style Guide, a giant binder of artwork and merchandize ideas Fox supplied to vendors who signed up to be licensees. I've had some weird moments related to my Simpson's work. My brother bought the poster for my son for his 14th birthday not knowing I designed it. My sister, Lisa, bought a Simpson's bookmark that said Lisa even if you turn it upside down. I had been doing ambigrams for years. She said, 'Michael, they stole your idea.' She didn't know I designed the bookmark. A guy at a startup I worked at had a lunch pail with the poster image. When I mention I designed it, people look at me like, 'Yeah, right.' Matt Groening was nice enough to send over signed posters for everyone who worked on the project.
Hi Constance. You mentioned you were going to wear a tuxedo so I thought a bow tie and black and white motif was appropriate. I wanted it to be simple enough to reproduce in small sizes and also something that could be made into a lapel pin or would look good on a tee or cap. The one-color design also helps with reproduction costs. I chose the font Cronos Pro. It has a friendly feel to it. It's both feminine and strong. The line 'I'm with her' is a fun and supportive play on words. I hope you like it. I wish you all the best. You are an inspiration.

Visual mnemonics and artwork for my website and iPhone app project for learning the periodic table of Elements. The idea is to turn each of the elements into a memorable character and show how they are related to each other. The characters are loosely drawn to resemble celebrities like Tom Hanks and Jennifer Aniston.
