Instead of going the traditional route and burning a physical album, NFO recorded their album and placed it online for download. To access this, they had plastic cards made up, with a scratch panel that reveals a secure download code, and the web address to access it.

Bliss – Theatre Production

TheMethod — Mon, 12 Jul 2010 16:00:46 +0000

Steven McCarthy, the genius young director tearing up the Canadian theatre scene asked Method to help him promo a truly unique production. Instead of describing the creative process that lead to this piece, it would be better to show an excerpt of the creative brief…

“BLISS.
I could send you the script if you like – it is a wild ride.

Key words:

loneliness
walmart
Celine Dion
a girl tied to her bed by her family and violated for 20 years
isolation
open mouth filling with black bile
vomiting out your blackness till you are actually inside out in a mess of bones and meat and bile on the floor of the staff room bathroom
Sherbrooke, quebec
Ascension into heaven
Apotheosis
A mirror”

That should just about do it.

G20: Fortress Toronto

TheMethod — Sat, 26 Jun 2010 16:00:37 +0000

During the G20 weekend, Jeff ventured downtown with a camera to capture the G20 through an unbiased lens.

This is the result.

Beyond the unbiased lens: TPS were very professional, and good cops, OPP were the bad news Fuzz. Look into the eyes in the photos, they will tell an entirely different story.

Pure Finesse – Got A Lot To Proove, EP

TheMethod — Sat, 17 Apr 2010 16:00:15 +0000

For a limited release EP, Method created a simple, but powerful image to be silk screened onto an Arigato pack, a single folded piece of recycled card stock. Method conducted a photo shoot to capture the dead warrior. We worked with a hair and make-up artist to get a sort of Blade-Runner look to our warrior, the final photo that was illustrated had to be layered from numerous photos to get the light balance off her skin just right. From there, the image was built into the illustration, and the final product you see here. The finished piece has been generating acclaim where ever it goes. An accompanying poster campaign was also employed to boost their profile.
