Could you share with us the history behind www. vectorbrigade.com? What does it mean? It started as a personal project, kind of a online showcase of experimentations with illustrations and motion graphics, collaborations with other artists, etc. Later evolved and became a creative studio operating in several fields of design. Curious fact no1: The name vectorbrigade came from powell peralta’s Bones Brigade. You know it makes sense ;) Vector Brigade Portugal www.vectorbrigade.com What do you think about vektor graphik? What do you love about it? I always draw stuff with pencil and paper before redrawing it in vector. It’s the close i can get to drawing, as weird as it sounds... Never got round using a pen though. Manage to get good results just by clicking the mouse, so i’ll stick to it ;) VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW What kind of vektor softwares do you currently use? What are the projekts you are currently working on? Any future projekts you can share with us? Illustrator and freehand. That’s pretty much it. How would you describe your style? Crazy ass punk post modern victorian shit. Geez, i really don’t know. It’s just the way it comes out. How do you work from concept to the final artwerk? Could you tell us the creative process? Always start with research. Find a good and original approach. Develop some sketches. Improve them. Start final artwork. Get it approved by client. Get paid. Or not :( Official clothing line, the 1976 DVD, bunch of new shit coming your way. Stay tuned. Who are your favourite artists or designers? Phunkstudio, Jeremy Fish, Flying Fortress. The list goes on. What inspires you? Could you list the 8 things that inspiring you in your creative process? Everything nowhere and nothing everywhere.

I JUST LOVE TO WORK WITH VEKTORJUNKIE, WHATEVER IS COMIN, IM DOWN WITH U GUYS! I JUST LOVE TO WORK WITH VEKTORJUNKIE, WHATEVER IS COMIN, IM DOWN WITH U GUYS! I JUST LOVE TO WORK WITH VEKTORJUNKIE, WHATEVER IS COMIN, IM DOWN WITH U GUYS! I JUST LOVE TO WORK WITH VEKTORJUNKIE, WHATEVER IS COMIN, IM DOWN WITH U GUYS! I JUST LOVE TO WORK WITH VEKTORJUNKIE, WHATEVER IS COMIN, IM DOWN WITH U GUYS! pfad.finder Austria www.vectorforsure.com Where are you from? From the heart of europe, Austria What kind of vektor softwares do you currently use? I preffer illustrator CS2 Could you share with us the history behind www. vectorforsure.com? What does it mean? pfadfinder (vectorforsure) is a collective of austrian artitsts with the main focus on vector art. It is like a platform where we can show our creative outcome, but soon it became more then this. We had already artists (graphic design, photography, digital art and architcture) we’ve been working with before, and we also wanted to integrate them into vectorforsure, after some time we developed pfad.finder. How would you describe your style? I describe my style as a kind of self-discovery, I always try to develop my style as much as possible and trying out different ways to get where I want. I dont want to stick with one style all the time maybe the link between my works is complexity, I like to look at images for some time and still discover new details. What did you think about vektor graphic? What do you love about it? Theres many ways of how vector graphics can bee seen and used, just as a tool or as an artform. To me it’s of course art, it’s a challenge to create styles that normally get done with pixel based programs. And another important thing, theres no dpi’s. VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW How do you work from concept to the final artwerk? Could you tell us the creative process? Well , since I’m not really talented in drawing with a pen and such, I had to look for diffrent medias and ways to realise what was in my head, in most cases the camera is the perfect tool for it. I collect samples and images and combine to my primary idea, then i start to draw my shapes, how to start with it is up to everyone’s own flow . some people start with the light other with shadows and so on. To me its important to know already in the beginning how complex and how detailed the work is goin to be, otherwise it can happen that in the end it looks slightly unblanced..just believe in yourself! VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW Any favorites projekt? Theres many, that i have good memories of, but at the moment its the “asian theme” the focus was on the complexity of the artwork, it cost me a lot of sweat and sleepless night, but it was worth it. I also liked the Skateboard Design exhibition here in vienna , product design is defenitly something i want to get into more. Who are your favourite artists or designers? Some of my favourite artists are god, adobe, limkis (fancy vektor), juni at work, freaky facets, the VJ artists (there are wonderful talents), pamzylove (with vectorpeeps) and many many more... What inspires you? Could you list the 8 things that inspiring you in your creative process? Music is the biggest inspiration for me, the outcome and the style is very much connected to what im listening to, also nature and the place where i work inspires me, What are the projekts you are currently working on? Any future projekts you can share with us? My biggest project at the moment is to get started with my own design bureau. Aside from that I’m working as a freelance for regular clients and teaching people graphic design. The rest of the time I spend with getting new clients and projects, It’s all about the money, baby! just joking..My latest project was for a transplantation congress here in Austria (Screen - & Print - Design). I’m also goin to start a label with my homeboy Scel, further infos coming soon.. then the hatred of the society and the way they think, the community with all the talent and and last but not least freedom. Any tips/tricks for vektorlover out there to create such a great vektor artwerks like yours? Take you time to experiment, and dont loose your patience when u think of what has to be done until the piece is finished, and don’t stop beliving in yourself. VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW What do you think of vektorjunkie.com? I just love to work with you guys, whatever is comin, im down with u guys! Thank you so much for doing this interview. Any last words..

I’m Kako, I’m a professional Illustrator and sometimes graphic designer. I work with clients from all over the world, mainly Brazil and US, from the editorial and advertising areas and now expanding my ambitious tentacles to motion design, animation and fashion. I’m self-taught in the “Way of the Vektor”, working enthusiastically with it since 2000. Did some comics here and there, but nothing special. 2006 was for me a breakthrough year, lots of great things happened, some of my work was selected to feature on the SPBook2006 from the Australian Semi Permanent Event, also on the Comunication Arts 47th Illustration Annual and the 49th Exhibition and Annual from the Society of Illustrators of New York. High expectations for 2007... :o) it as soon as possible... meanwhile I’ll try to keep it updated and if you want to see new stuff you can send me an email ([email protected]) and join my mailing list. What do you think about vektor graphik? What do you love about it? When I’m working I need control. Total control. I work like a mean dictator, nothing must be left unchecked, each line must be perfect in place, every single part of my illustrations is very well planned. Even when it looks loose, it’s not. If I need to get a line right, I’ll work on that all day until I get it right. And all of this is possible due to the vektors. What kind of vektor softwares do you currently use? Where are you from? I use Adobe Illustrator CS2 with the KPT Vector Effects 1.5 plug-in. I’m born and raised in São Paulo, Brazil. How would you describe your style? Could you share with us the history behind www.kakofonia. com? What does it mean? Dark and Dirty :o) The kakofonia.com is my website, but unfortunately it is still a provisory website. People seems to like it, but today I need a user-friendly website to attend my clients better. Too many ideas today to improve it, but no time to work on that yet. But I hope I can get my things together and do something about How do you work from concept to the final artwerk? Could you tell us the creative process? I work a lot with editorial magazines and I’m known for doing an extra mile when it comes to improve an article, specially when it is a historical article or a technological infograph. To get the work done I read and study a lot for each job. My work is two parts research, one part illustration. I believe that as an illustrator I must give the reader the best image that will represent that particular article, I mean, somebody may use it on a paperwork for school or use it as a reference for another illustration, who knows? So the beginning is very important for me and the briefing meeting is almost sacred. I’m always very busy and I need to plan all the way during that meeting, cause later I know I won’t have the time. I’m always pissed off when the designer or editor doesn’t give me the feedback I need. Everytime that happens we have major problems in the whole process. And I know it’s not my fault cause I got my homework done. And even after that I continue studying. It’s not unusual to see me correcting the text on an article every now and then. Heaven for me is when I can get the illustration on the same level of importance as the text, no more, no less. And you only achieve that if you know what you are talking about and more important, what the other is talking about. I worked as a graphic designer before so I also like to design the pages along with the designer before it all begins, I don’t quite know what I’m going to illustrate yet but I like to know I’ll have enough space for that. It’s kind of a feeling you have during the brainstorm, you’ve seen images, you know what is important to show, a striking scene, a powerful icon, whatever. And from there we start developing the concepts for that job. The goal is always time management, the designer can work on the pages knowing that everything will fit when VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW he places the illo at the end, the editor knows that what I’m doing is not randomly chosen and complements the article and I can relax and do my job in peace. If there are any tweaks, they are minor tweaks. If it’s a huge one, it’s because somebody wasn’t on the meeting. Trust me. So from there I get back to work, and I keep researching. Mostly pictures at this point, to construct the scenes, to use as references, whatever. That done, I start illustrating. The good thing about continuous research is that you can put on your work visual references that cannot be shown to the reader by words. The right medals on the chest of the officers, the correct names on maps and so on. And there is something that I love to do that is put subliminal messages on the illos, but always related to the article. There is an illustration I’ve made about that hacker guy, Mitnick, that I put over 8 subliminal messages on it. Got a lot of excited mail after that “I’ve found it, I’ve found that!!!”. I think that’s cool. People tend to remember the article a lot more if they can remember the illustration that comes with it, specially nowadays that people doesn’t read a lot. Visual memory can be powerful if you give the reader the right illustration. About my creative process there’s nothing unusual about it. I consider myself as an workaholic person, so I’m constantly thinking about my projects and the jobs I’m doing. Visual information is a must, and anyone who works with vektors knows that references are very important for us. A simple image can be the spark for a huge project or can be the answer for something you are working on. Don’t mistake that with rip offs, far from that.You are feeding your mind. I believe that any artist must be out there looking for visual information, communicating with others artists, taking lots and lots of pictures, sketching... I think that’s why I can’t stick only with illustration nowadays. To much is happening, too many ideas, I love it. What are the projekts you are currently working on? Any future projekts you can share with us? Any favorites projekt? Yes, there are two projects that I’m working on since last year and they are definitely my favorites. The first one is called The K Spot and it all started as a way to spend some time off trying new possibilities with the Illustrator tools and the KPT Vector effects. Basically I get the “k” from any type family and redesign it. The fun part is that most of the time I actually don’t know what’s going to happen, nothing is planned, which is the opposite of what my day-today work is. I look at the type and things start from there. It’s kind of a “typography caricature” as I like to say. You can see most of them at http://the-kakofonia-spot.blogspot.com/ and of course, as it is an ongoing project, I’m open to talk to any designer who wants it’s “Ks” redesigned :o) I hope to turn it into a freeware typography catalog someday. Or maybe an exibition... The other one is called Mon Petit Monsuteru and it involves street art stickers, toy art, t-shirts and a whole world of new products and side projects on the near future. Monsu is a character created basically to function as a graphical intervention and from there I’ve started to create a lot of series that will be released from time to time. The first of them is Monsuteru Xing, which I add or replace one element of a japanese road signs with Monsu. You can see some of them on my website (I plan to have monsuteru.com uploaded by March). There’s a way to participate on the project too, you can go to http:// VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW VEKTORIKA | INTERVIEW lemonsuflaneur.blogspot.com, download the files and print them in self-adhesive papers to make stickers. Stick’em up in your hometown or while you are traveling and send the pictures to me that I’ll post them at the blog. And I’ve just released some extra limited series of tshirts and underwears, so if you want any, send me an email. For the future... big secrets!!! Who are your favorite artists or designers? From the past, Egon Schiele, Gustav Klimt and Alphonse Mucha. From the present, Mike Mignola, Masamune Shirow and Takashi Murakami. From the future, Gez Fry, Sam Weber and Matthew Woodson. What inspires you? Could you list the 8 things that inspiring you in your creative process? Any kind of visual stimulation the makes the brain clicks... you never know what you will find around the corner... like the mighty Zappa said ”A mind is like a parachute. It doesn’t work if it’s not open”.. cheesy, but true. But if we must list them: Music ( I can’t even think about working without it ), The beautiful Eastern Culture, History and all men’s wonderful and devastating mistakes, Japanese Contemporary Art, Toy Art, Fashion and trend magazines in general, Spending the day on a book store, Black C40M20Y20K100 + Dark Red I’m addicted to them... Any tips/tricks for vektorlover out there to create such a great vektor artwerks like yours? Know your vektor style. I know a lot of people that doesn’t like vektor cause they all look the same or they all say vektor is nothing more than just tracing. I’m not going to deny it either cause unfortunately most of the time is what you see. I can’t stand when I see a vektor illustration badly done, or worse, an auto-traced illo. I fear what people can do with “live trace”. Please, if you are going to make your illustration with an auto-tracing tool, rethink your professional goals. People asks how I work, if I use the mouse or the tablet, what are the most common illustrator tools I need, but it will not be the answer for them cause every artist has it’s own path and if you can come up with fresh vektor style you are in heaven, be true to it and keep improving no matter what. It doesn’t matter the tools but how you express your art with vektor. But the most important is, never ever forget the pen and paper. You won’t regret it later. What do you think of vektorjunkie.com? Vektorjunkie is a special place where vektorfreaks like us understand each other :o) Thank you so much for doing this interview. Any last words... I would like to thank you for this great opportunity to show my work and to talk to my fellow vektor lovers. Keep in touch!!!
