As you may know, I am trying to break into the professional world of web design, and to do this I need to make myself a portfolio of sites I have done. I thought of getting with a bunch of local bands and seeing if they would like sites done for cheap, and that’s where my buddy Matt McConnell came in. He’s in a band called Downseed and he has been in bands since high school. He has connections with dozens of bands in the area who may be interested in having a web site done up. A lot of bands are content with just having a presence on MySpace, so there’s not such a huge demand for quality web sites for local bands.
So we decided to team up and see what we can do. He’ll hunt down the business and I’ll create the sites. It might not turn out to be much of anything if we can’t get any clients, but at least it’s another lead for me and my portfolio. Matt has been doing business under the name "Dark Five" for years now and he wanted to keep the name and turn it into "Dark 5 Design". I didn’t have a problem with that so there it is.
I created a freaking awesome logo in Flash and here it is.
The first project that we are workin on is the site for his own band. I’ll put it up here when it’s done. YAY.
