It is time for fantasy football leagues to start up again. I am once again participating in my annual league. Every year I change the name and logo for my team. I thought I would post this year’s logo redo. If you don’t recognize the guy in this logo it is Vince Vaughn. The name, Red7 is a reference to the movie Wedding Crashers. There is a funny backyard football scene in that movie that served as this years inspiration. So thanks for indulging me.
Wow it has been too long since my first post. I finally got to polishing up some of my old work. Please feel free to scroll on down and take a look.
This is a postcard I developed a few years ago. I like it’s simplicity. By the way those are my daughters, Jordan and Taylor. They are much bigger now but I loved the photo so I had to use it in some sort of design.
This is a Corporate Identity/Branding package I designed for a local talent management company. They wanted bold, strong colors but didn’t want the logo to look too corporate. I used a more “techy” type font and the old tried and true red, white and black color scheme. The client really liked what I was able to do for them.
Another partial Corp. ID package with just the business card and logo.
This was my very first attempt at layout. I did this one back in art school. It’s a brochure for John Elway’s induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. I actually designed this 2 or 3 years before He was inducted. Hey I’m Colorado born-and-raised so it was a no brainer for me. Loved watching that guy!
This piece is one I drew for a clothing company. They were looking for a vintage, sports legend illustration for the inner label of one of their new clothing lines. This was very time consuming but a lot of fun to illustrate. Most of my experience has been, but not limited to, designing for apparel.
Here are some logo ideas I worked up for a couple of surf shops in Florida. You may be familiar with Ron Jon which is a pretty well known company even outside of the surf industry. The other one is Cocoa Beach Surf Company. These were designs for headwear.
Some more logos for Ron Jon and a few for well known golf courses. These were all headwear logos as well. I you hadn’t guessed by now I worked for an golf industry leading apparel company for a while.
Some more golf headwear logos.
Well, that’s a quick look at some of the things I’ve done in the past. Thanks for taking the time to view these and there will be plenty more where that came from. Take care and God Bless.

Hi everyone. Welcome to my first adventure in blogging. My name is Nate Miller but I spell it “N8″ Miller, (just one those quirky, creative person type things). I am a freelance graphic designer. A good friend of mine, John S. Miller, turned me on to this blogging thing. I’m know I’m only about ten years late to the party, but better late than never as they say. Why not make myself more accessible to potential clients, friends, family, strangers, and everyone else who may be interested in what I do and who I am? It sounds like a great idea, so here we go. I will be posting some of the work I do on a regular basis as a way for clients to get a sort of “sneak preview” and just to keep the rest of you interested in what I might be able to do for you and what I’m up to. I will have some of my previous designs posted shortly, just need to polish ‘em up a bit first. So thanks for your patience and for stopping by and checking out this new endeavor of mine, it should be a lot of fun.
God Bless,
N8
