In the many weeks since my last post, work has definitely gotten better. We had a new art director start a few weeks ago and he’s been pretty quick to pick up on how things roll. The long hours have tamed down finally and once again we’ve got a really great group of people working at Gams.

We’ve also been using the new version of Adobe’s creative suite. So far, the new apps kick some pretty serious ass. The new features in Photoshop and Indesign are useful, but Illustrator’s new features really take the cake.

LiveColor is delicious. So is the new UI. Being able to use alignment tools on individual anchors is heavenly. However, Adobe really took a few steps back when they added in isolation mode. It was touted as an exciting new feature, but all it’s done for me so far is suck. You can’t edit opacity masks, nor can you lock, hide, or switch to outline view (probably some other limitations). Real annoying.

We’ve been working on some cool projects and I’ve started to get some samples of the finished pieces. As they come in, I’m going to start posting some photos of them here.
