Launch Party for Create Magazine

We hosted one hell of a party April 21 for Create Magazine in celebration of their Summer 2006 Issue. The party had lighting affects by a Los Angeles based company and the music was live by DJ Adam of San Diego. It was a action packed night filled with guests from Kettner Nights as well as our invited guests. It was a perfect time to show off our newly almost finished design studio as well as kick back with a glass of wine in one hand and grooving to a beat on the other. There are many people to thank for getting this event off the ground. From the DJ to the Cleaning Crew, thanks to everyone, this event would not have happened if not for you.

Color Control Freak Tour 2006

So the tour has come to and end. Phil Nelson and I have completed the first tour of the year for GMB and GIA. We have the numbers to prove it was a huge success with 1,136 people attending in over 27 cites, several of which sold out completely. The tour which was sponsored by hp, Adobe, Eizo, HOW, Pantone, Quark, nik, and Gretag Macbeth made a beleiver out of the skeptical and reinforced the essentials for seasoned veterans. Face it, if your not measuring color then how can you expect to control it. Face it, your a color control freak. So keep your eye out for the next upcomming seminar tour, like Picture Perfect and Digital Sign Making. Special thanks goes out the Juniper Sage for making the tour run so smoothly.

Color management is very import in architecture and especially important for Linderoth and Associates, a full service architectural firm focusing on impact housing in Arizona, California, and Nevada. COLORCRITICAL helped Linderoth this week bet a better control on their printing through a customized ICC workflow to their wide format printing devices. Establishing mixtures of RGB to simulate paint swatches is no easy task but with spectrophotometry the job can be much easier. Thanks Dean for making my visit pleasant and I will fly over for a day anytime.
