updated our MySpace Page

We updated our company page on MySpace last week. Check it out and add us as a friend. http://www.myspace.com/blackdiamonddigital

Myspace is somewhat juvenile, some say, but I like it. Heck, I advise some of my clients to use it. Especially start-ups, nightclubs, models, makeup artists and freelancers. It’s a free online portfolio, blog, and bulletin board. Pretty cool, really.

Recently, I used MySpace to help me track down a model for a quick-turn casino campaign. We got the order on a Thursday night. Friday morning, we built the backgrounds and added the type. I spent the weekend searching MySpace, OMP, and craigslist for models. On Monday in the studio I shot the beautiful model in a quick 1 hr session. Then I retouched, clipped and inserted the images to the designs completed on Friday. Thanks to our solid friends at the printing company, the client hung the signs on Tuesday - A day before our deadline.

With the evolution of LinkedIn and Facebook, it will be interesting to see how MySpace competes with these newer online communities. We’re on all three, and try to keep up with them at least once a week to tag up with some of our friends and clients. Join in, and we’ll all keep in touch.
