*this is an old project, but I'm still very proud of the fact that my design was featured in a print publication: Print Magazine's 2003 Interactive issue. It was a highpoint of my visual design career, since Print had been inspirational to me during my graphic design education.

3 Things I Learned:
Brainstorming conceptual approaches with a team, before beginning, helps create great design.
It's worth putting in extra hours, to deliver a quality product. The agency's budget was very low for this project. But because I wanted to deliver the best thing I could, I put in nights and weekends. Print Magazine featured this design in their interactive issue that year, which was a significant award for me.
A film can be beautiful and deeply disturbing all at once. Which I believe is typically the case with Pedro Almodovar's work.
