“Goodwill Halloween” Campaign In Southern California

Out for a walk the other day and saw this poster taped up in a Goodwill Drop-Off station window.

Fun and effective seasonal design work from L.A./Dallas-based The Miller Group, originally created in 2008 to capitalize on the boon to Goodwill’s business from L.A. costume hunters leading up to Halloween.

This Is What Happens When Your Dad's A Graphic Designer — Ewoks!

Anthony Herrera’s young children we’re bummed they didn’t see any Ewoks living in Sequoia National Park during a recent visit. Problem solved. Magic and wonder restored…

And it’s awesome. (via)

Graphic designer Anthony Herrera used his Photoshop skills to perpetuate the notion that Ewoks live in the Sequoia National Park, to keep his young children from being bummed out that they couldn't see any during a recent trip there. Image of Herrera with his daughter in the forest, with an inset of a blown-up section of the photo featuring an Ewok peering at them from the brush. Image © Anthony Herrera.
