Originally it was the Magic Hat and Wand with DVD, VHS and Film coming out of it, that&#8217;s when I was primarily doing video editing.  Then as I got more into digital media and websites, I tried to edit it to reflect the transition, but I was never quite happy.  I found work by Michael Whiting ( <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michaelwhiting.com\/index.php?\/wall\/standing\/\">http:\/\/www.michaelwhiting.com\/index.php?\/wall\/standing\/<\/a>) very inspirational and first tried to imitate it with vector graphics, but wasn&#8217;t happy with the result again.  So I decided to contact Michael directly, and he sent me a few new elements.  I liked the computer wearing the magic hat idea and the new pixelated font for the text.  I added my trusted 10 year old Photoshop gold\/chrome action to it, and whoa-la.  The new logo is live.  I still don&#8217;t think it&#8217;s quite the final version but I finally think it&#8217;s a change in the right direction.  Thank you Michael, love your art.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the years I&#8217;ve gone through a handful of logo designs.
