It's not every day that you get word that your work is featured in a major motion picture. About a week ago I was told that a logo I designed about three years ago was featured in the new movie "Swing Vote".
In the fall of 2005, I was asked to update the logo for the Young Republican National Federation, the oldest Republican youth organization in the country. At the time, I was fairly active in politics and I was excited to have the opportunity to work on something as big as that.
It's been a few years since then, and my political participation has since waned, but about a week ago I was informed that the logo I designed was featured in the movie "Swing Vote". I haven't seen the movie yet but from what I understand, in one scene the logo and banner I designed takes up the entire shot. I am looking into trying to grab a screen shot but I don't know how much luck I will have. I'll probably have to wait until it comes out on DVD.
Anyhow, it's pretty darned cool to have your designs featured in a major motion picture. I'm really excited about it! If you see the film and notice the Young Republican logo, let me know.
