Since Last Week
From Patrick: “You can now choose to be notified about comments on shots that your teammates upload for your team, about comments which mention your team, or when people follow your team.” For more information, click on Patrick’s shot, above left. Last week’s Timeout featured Fuzzco senior web designer and Badass Lady Creatives founder Melanie Richards (I heart plants above right). Finally, we are hiring a support coach!

You Got Game

Branded
- The Book of Life, an animated film coming from 20th Century Fox. Jon Contino worked on branding and promotional materials. “The whole project lasted over a year and encompassed everything from icon design to theater posters to billboards to font design. What you see here is the font I designed for the film called El Skeleto.

Meetup Wrap-up
Dallas, Texas, Tuesday, May 13
From organizer Bruce Vang: “Dallas Dribbblers met at a favorite local bar to talk shop and bid farewell to one of our own. Good luck to you in Houston, Matthew Simo! Some of the evening’s topics included prototyping with animations and development. A great time was had by all, and we’re looking forward to the next Meetup.”
Charleston, South Carolina, Thursday, May 15
From organizer Mike Hartwell: “Charleston kicked off its third meetup with a Dribbble-inspired Analog Playoff last week. With the need for a slight venue change, Taco Boy served the part as eHouse Studio wrapped up the final touches on their new space.
"The playoff participants drew inspiration from the simple albeit somewhat difficult idea of saying "hello." A few lucky Dribbblers took home Gameplan Notebooks as well as copies of Dan Cederholm's Sass for Web Designers.
"Special thanks to Meetup sponsors Dribbble, Shopify, A Book Apart and host, eHouse Studio. Also, thanks to those folks behind the scenes that pull the levers and crank the cogs: Susanna, Dan, Candi, Aaron, Jenelle & Hartwell. You rock!”
