What a year that was! And I get the feeling this year will be something else. Here’s the first image of the year – a promo pic for Just A Band’s first concert of the year: Walkers and Workers.

I discovered yesterday that the Vuka campaign (see the “Vuka – What Went Down” post) won the Best Campaign of the Year at the Marketing Society of Kenya’s awards. COOL!

I will be giving a short presentation of some animated work (titled – deep breath – Paradigms of Motion Design & Compositing for Highend Production – phew!) at Animated Kenya on the 6th of December at the Sarit Center.

Find out more here. Time to dust off the ol’ Powerpoint, I guess.

Those of you who live (or have lived) in Nairobi will probably enjoy going through 24 Nairobi’s website. In their words:

“The 24 Nairobi project is intended as a showcase of a modern African city through the eyes of its own photographers. This is an alternative, innovative, realistic and professional African perspective. All the photographers reside in Nairobi and grew up or now call Nairobi “home”…”

Of particular note (to me) are photos by Boniface Mwangi – award-winning photojournalist – who captured a side of Nairobi that most of us haven’t encountered (or would want to encounter, for that matter). I believe the gallery opening at the Museum will be held on the 24th of this month – more details on the website: http://www.24nairobi.com

It’s really strange seeing something you worked on all over the place – some people are calling it the Zain Drain, which I found funny. Ahem.
