Australian INfront

Smirnoff Australia Limited Edition

Smirnoff Australia are releasing 2 limited edition "twisting" bottle designs. One by Beastman, one by Nanami Cowdroy. In an interesting social media move, Beastman has taken over the Smirnoff Facebook Page. The virtual peek into his studio is worth checking out. Visit: www.startpure.com.au

Can We Fly

'Can We Fly' is a pop-up exhibition from Bennett happening at Blank_Space in Sydney tomorrow from 12. How something at a gallery is a "pop-up exhibition" is a bit beyond me for a Friday morning... but the work looks excellent none the less so you should head down and take a gander.

Seven With Another Tonight

Opening tonight in Brisbane, the fourth edition of Seven with Another is happening at Substation No. 4, 22 Petrie Terrace, Brisbane from 7pm. For those who don't know or haven't been, Seven with Another brings together 14 different creatives from far opposing fields and mashes them together to create a piece of art with magical results. Find out more here.

Artists Agents

Artists Agents are a new studio out of Sydney with a fresh outlook and some tasty work already on board.

Abi Singmin

Abi Singmin is quite the talent and showcases both design and photography work on her site. What I like most is her packaging work, highly polished and well executed examples to be found.

Infront Presents 'Workshop'

So last week I mentioned that we have a bunch of Workshops coming up, if you read my little rambles you'd already know that this is an opportunity to have your portfolio reviewed by the likes of Vince Frost of Frost, Jonathan Kneebone from The Glue Society, Chris Doyle of Interbrand and Toby Pike of Toby&Pete. You'd also know there are some excellent tutorials happening on how to get your portfolio together in iMovie, Keynote and various iPad based applications.

Well, if you didn't - it's taking place on February the 15th at the Apple Store Bondi (I stress Bondi here so people know this event is different from our regular events at the Sydney city store) from 5.30pm through to 7.30pm (different times for different sessions).

They are free and the numbers are super limited. What you have to do to come along is as follows:

• Head to http://www.apple.com/au/retail/bondi/

• Go to 'Schedule of Workshops and Events' and select the date of Wednesday the 15th of February.

• Here you will see a number of events under the title of Creative Portfolios. Click 'Reserve', fill in the details and you're away.

As I mentioned, spots are limited so it is first in best dressed.
