This is the simple difference between the future of advertising; what gets left behind in the past. It is something that I strive for in all of my work. Besides just thinking about advertising, I do enjoy the random things in life. Whether video games or painting, everything adds to the creative process. I'm sure there's more I could write here, but for now this is fine. Thanks for checking out my online portfolio, hopefully we can do this in person next time.

Mail for Mobile goes wherever people go in real life, banners will be created that will continually follow the person as they go from site to site as a metaphor for their movements.

Because when using the HTC EVO on a 4G network, videos load 10x faster. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/13229/531264/evo_campaign_hulu.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="376" align="left" /> Loads faster than 3G To show how fast the new HTC EVO 4G is, Sprint will create ads for the iPad that will appear when using a 3G network connection and show a preview of the site before it actually loads. The site will load the Sprint ad first and the rest of the site afterwards. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/13229/531264/evo_campaign_fastest.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="481" align="left" /> Error Message When sites such as YouTube have a problem loading videos due to the speed of the connection, an error message appears. Sprint will purchase these messages and point out how the HTC EVO 4G is on the way to make this a problem of the past. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/13229/531264/evo_campaign_error1.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="484" align="left" /> HTC EVO Mobile Banners Mobile banners concepted and designed for the launch of the HTC EVO. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/13229/531264/evo_campaign_mobile_banners.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="601" align="left" /> EVO 4G Mobile Website Mobile website concepted and designed for the launch of the HTC EVO. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/13229/531264/evo_campaign_mobile_site.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="601" align="left" /> Nascar Banner Mobile banner designed for the launch of the HTC EVO 4G. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/13229/531264/evo_campaign_speedfreak.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="771" align="left" /> Nascar Banner Mobile banner designed for the launch of the HTC EVO 4G. <img src="http://c0573862.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/1/0/13229/531264/evo_campaign_racecars.jpg" border="0" width="670" height="531" align="left" /> http://www.nathantross.com/531264/EVO-Campaign
