Great happy hour everyone and thanks for the HUGE donation we'll be dropping off at Terralever tomorrow morning!

[Thanks to Being Studios for letting me steal all the photos from their Flickr stream, or not getting mad that is]

Great to see one of our larger projects from last year getting some virtual ink at InteriorDesign.net!

TEMPE, AZ – Tempe police are investigating the death of Russell Maloney, 26, of Mesa, who was found on the top level of the Hayden Ferry Lakeside parking structure early Tuesday morning.

An image surfaced shortly thereafter which prompted police to search for a second man, Russell Perry, also 26, in connection with the death. The photo appears to depict Perry throwing Maloney off a roof overhang atop the parking garage.

Safely hidden behind a pylon, photographer Diana Rothery watched fearfully as the battle escalated, but through her fear managed to snap this photo.

"That man...he had a crazy look in his eyes – like a wild animal. A badger, or a boar-badger, or something equally ghastly," Rothery recounts.

Posthumous Notice: The events reported to have occurred in this blog post are "just for pretends." Russ Maloney is still very much alive, and Russ Perry is still very much a monstrous boar-badger, or something equally ghastly.

Keane is hiring.

We are looking for an industrious designer (maybe two) to come aboard for the next 3-6 months, with work to start around mid- to late-August.

First and foremost, we’re looking for someone with a strong creative background (print/interactive) that knows how to manage projects and client relationships.

Ultimately, we are looking for managers of one (see See 37Signals's - Hire Managers of One post). There’s no room for someone who requires a lot of direction with the nature and pace of our work.

We’re not sure if this is going to be a full-time or part-time position, so you might be able to swing it with another job; however, daytime availability is expected five days a week. Work experience with/within an agency or studio is also required.

Local folks will make things easier, but it certainly isn’t a deal breaker if you’re remote. And finally – there is no promise of permanent employment, but that’s not to say it can’t happen.

What to do next:

First, email over a resume and a cover letter/cover email about what you’re looking for in a creative position and why you’re interested in taking on this new role with Keane. You can email it to jobs [at] keanecreative.com. If you want to sweeten the deal, go into more detail about your interests, your fears, inspirations, friend us on Facebook, send us a tweet, etc.

Second, we’d like to meet you in person (if we haven’t already). We’re hosting a happy hour on July 31st at RA on Mill Ave and it would be a good time to connect with the Keane team and our friends/clients.

Third, if you have a portfolio of any type, send it over as well. PDF or online versions are preferred.

Thanks so much, don’t hesitate to send us any questions!

Spectacular work from Moscow-based BrandStudio for the Lexus RX350 (English version). Visitors access the main site after the intro video plays, but only after actually setting your clock ahead – into the future.

You have to be super-patient for it to load. I imagine it's because Russia is so chilly.

We released a new logo package for our client Longbow yesterday. Collateral design and a full writeup coming later in the month!
