I just got back from a my cousin's golden birthday. It was a blast! And, an awesome lead into the great news that both of my latest tee designs were accepted for voting in Threadless' latest tee contest. Now I need your votes to get them printed.
Threadless and Vevo have teamed up to bring Threadless Loves Music Videos. T-shirts based off of people's favorite music videos. I chose Ok Go's "This Too Shall Pass" and Kanye West's "Love Lockdown". Very different videos, but both left me with tons of ideas.
If you have not seen the video for "This Too Shall Pass" then get on it right now. They won the battle with their label to allow this one to stay on youtube to capitalize on it's viral potential. I didn't have enough room on one tee to draw out the entire Rube Goldberg machine (Actually that would have been even better to have it spread across three or four different shirts...damn!), but I was able to capture some key points and the grand finale of them being blasted with paint cannons.
Kanye's video is much different, but I found it strangely addictive. I had the idea for a tee the first time I saw it. And, what do you know? Threadless comes up with a music video tee contest a few months later. I captured some of the key characters dancing throughout the video and now have them dancing around the base of the tee while Kanye stands there awkwardly in his nice off-white suit.
If you haven't already, head over to Threadless and vote for these designs to be printed. I would appreciate some 5's. Have a good one!
