xTrain, an online video based training system, has asked me to teach several design courses for them. These courses will be sold over the Internet to aspiring designers and professionals. I will be teaching about the creative process and design business fundamentals. Check it out at xtrain.com.
On the music design scene, I am currently designing three album covers; a retrospective featuring Jimmy LaFave’s Bohemia Beat recording days and a soon–to–be–released album for Red House Records (jimmylafave.com). In addition, I have been asked to design the Red Dirt Rangers’ new CD (reddirtrangers.com).
