These weren't for any actual clients, it was just an internal project prompted by the ever-present demand for low-cost graphic design. We figured, when you go to a hair salon or a tattoo shop, you get a book of sort of generic samples, partly to give you ideas, and partly for reference when discussing artistic possibilities and directions. So why not when you go to the web- or graphic designer? Keep in mind, these samples by no means represent our full range of technical or stylistic capabilities, they're just for your viewing pleasure. (Click thumbs for larger images)Read more

Brian Shotzbarger, an aspiring independent filmmaker, shot this reel of material for various short films. An admirer of French New-Wave cinema, he came to Kosada for help putting the right finishing touches on this set of projects.

We provided Brian instruction in the use of video production tools such as Final Cut Pro. He also provided feedback on aesthetic matters such as color correction, clip splicing, and transition sequences. Finally, he contributed to the arrangement, performance, post-production, and syncing of the film score.Read more
