Between a poster we printed for SXSW 2012 and this video campaign that was shot on location at our shop last fall, Bearded Lady had a little hand in the Addy Awards this year.

Playing host to a film crew was fun and bizarre. A slew of folks from Hack Studios whirled through our shop with intense focus and a crapload of camera equipment. This Metro Rapid poster job and accompanying video served as a swan song for our trusty old Dorn press, Bearded Lady’s main machine for several years. She served us long and well, and performed beautifully for the film crew. Shortly after this was shot, we received our Saturn M&R which we now use for all of our automatic flat printing (we still do quite a bit of printing by hand). The Dorn has since found a new home with a neighboring print shop. Print on, Dorn…

Congrats to Sherry Matthews Advocacy Marketing on their gold ADDY for the MetroRapid “Screen ATX” campaign, and same to the Ampersand Agency for their work for KUT, which includes this bloody mary piece printed by yours truly.
