(1/3) “We got called out one day to assist a fuel convoy that was being pinned down by gunfire. They had stopped along an open field, and were taking fire from a tree line about 200 meters away. When we arrived, I noticed a small truck about 50 meters out. It had stopped on a farm road running along the field. There were legs hanging out of it. I was acting medic for the platoon so I went to investigate. And they’re obviously not combatants. It’s this family of six. I guess they’d been driving toward the convoy and somebody got scared and shot them up. It’s just a mom and a dad and four kids. And there’s this unique, awful smell when your guts open up. And everyone’s dead except the father and this eight-year-old girl who’d been shot twice in the chest. And she’s crying. And this wasn’t what I came for. I thought we were here to kill bad guys.”

While working on ABZÛ, our creative director Matt Nava makes lots of beautiful sketches to communicate ideas and direction for the game. We were looking through some of the concept art he’s created so far and found a few to share in our first ever art post.

These are some early pieces that help set the tone and mood of the game. Lots changes during development, but you can think of this a hint of what’s to come!

Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961) “Well, when I get it the only thing that does any good is to jump in a cab and go to Tiffany’s. Calms me down right away. The quietness and the proud look of it; nothing very bad could happen to you there. If I could find a real-life place that’d make me feel like Tiffany’s, then - then I’d buy some furniture and give the cat a name!”

The Monochromatic Animations of Jay Keeree

“Outlets" is an ongoing series of monochromatic GIFs made by Jay Keeree. The animations, some abstract and some referential, are inspired by the artist’s interest in technical illustration, architecture, and graphic design.  As the name of the project would suggest, the series serves as a creative outlet for the artist to jot down, to simplify, and to reanimate the world around him into short loop-able animations.

Theera (Jay) Keeree is a Thai freelance motion graphic designer currently based in Philadelphia, PA.

Typeworship: Last month on Instagram

 It’s been a busy month on our Instagram feed. We’ve been part of the build-up to Monotype’s eagerly awaited Eric Gill Series Exhibition in London (attend here). We’ve shown peeks from the forthcoming I’d Letterpress the shit out of that! exhibition in Melbourne, and my typeface release Brim Narrow, a family of stackable display fonts, perfect for punchy headlines. 

You’ll find more detailed posts right here on the blog but if you’d also like up-to-the-minute type & lettering inspiration follow our updates here
