One fateful night we bumped into the most mysterious and magical store front we had ever seen! Since it lacked a sign, it was difficult to know what it was. Through closer inspection, we found out that what we were looking at was actually a used bookstore. A wondrous place like this needed to be found! So we met with owner Stephen Fowler and offered to create a sign for it. We collaborated with a very talented woodworker called Rob Cockell, and now the sign is part of The Monkey’s Paw essential identity.

With his own breed of comedic innocence, Farnsworth begins a quest - a quest to show the world his new vision. Being a purist, he also struggles with the transition from film to video. Yet, however hard it may be for Farnsworth to break away from the celluloid, he does so with immense success, hence the title; The Man with A DV Cam. He becomes a one man production team in his exploration of his new digital tool. As Farnsworth finally escapes the confines of celluloid, he creates a stunning and highly-stylized visual collage that seamlessly blends the surreal with the absurd.

There is a beautiful small town in Southern Ontario called Kingsville. And in Kingsville there is a gem of a restaurant called Jack’s. Jack’s asked us to help them with their communications and their branding. We created maps of the area, so people could find Jack’s more easily, as well as helped them modernize and re-design their menu and identity so it could reflect the quality of their food and service. Now Jack’s brings people from all over the province to get a taste of what, up until recently, was a well kept secret of a little town.
